A Newcastle accountancy and business advisory firm has strengthened its senior team with 19 new promotions.
Azets, with offices at the Regent Centre in Gosforth, made the appointments in a range of positions, including at partner and director level, signalling further growth in the city.
Claire Hinshaw, who is Newcastle office managing partner, said: “These richly deserved promotions reflect the depth of talent and commitment we have among our team.
“It is a privilege to see team members develop their careers with Azets in Newcastle while providing outstanding support for our valued clients and contributing to the growth of our business in the city.”
Sarah Simpson was promoted to partner in audit and assurance. The director promotions included Patrick Newman in audit and assurance and Omar Din in wealth management.
Other promotions were at associate director, senior manager, manager and assistant manager and team leader level.
Azets, which is a UK top 10 accountancy and advisory firm, has about 190 people in its Newcastle office in Bulman House, the Regent Centre.
The Newcastle promotions represented more than half of the total of 28 promotions across Azets’ three offices in the North East.
Azets also has offices in Durham and Wynyard in Teesside where there were three and eight promotions respectively.
Brian Laidlaw, Partner and Head of North East at Azets, who works with some of the largest owner-managed businesses in the city, said: “These promotions stand testament to the great work done in supporting business clients and individuals and our growing service lines.
“The number of promotions reflects that, reflects what we’ve achieved and reflects our ambitious growth plans for the next 12 months in the area.
“Congratulations to everyone who has been promoted and thank you for your hard work and commitment to Azets and the businesses we support in the North East and across the UK.”
