Accountancy firm BDO announces over 70 promotions in the South West

Accountancy and business advisory firm BDO LLP has announced a raft of promotions in the South West.

The round saw a total of 74 promotions in the firm’s Bristol office, including two new directors: Kathryn Archer and Douglas Cecil.

Nationwide, BDO has promoted over 2,300 of its people, including 30 new partners across all areas of the business.

Just under half of BDO’s firmwide promotions fall in the regions outside of London.

In September, the firm welcomed 19 new trainees in the region, a combination of graduates and school leaver apprentices.

David Brookes (pictured), regional managing partner of BDO in the South West commented: “Congratulations to all our people in the South West who have been promoted. Each promotion stands testament to BDO’s unwavering commitment to investing in our people, underlining our belief that they are central to the future of our business.”

“We’re incredibly proud to recognise the dedication and talent of so many of our colleagues with these well-deserved promotions just a few months after welcoming a new cohort of graduates and apprentices, our advisers of the future.”
