Expanding accountancy firm appoints new audit director
Audit, accountancy, tax, and advisory firm Bishop Fleming has announced its latest round of promotions as the firm continues to grow across the West Midlands and South West.
The firm has appointed Dan Phillips as a new audit director and announced nearly 30 other senior manager, manager, and assistant manager roles across its four service lines, as well as a larger group of junior promotions.
Dan said: “Since joining from PwC three years ago, Bishop Fleming has consistently supported my development and that of my colleagues.
“This milestone is a testament to the firm’s commitment to nurturing and advancing talent. I look forward to continuing to support our clients and contribute to the firm’s ongoing success.”
The firm’s Apprentice Programme is rated Outstanding by Ofsted and currently ranked 27th in the UK’s Top 100 Apprenticeship Employer rankings. The promotions come off the back of a series of successes, including its Great Place To Work recertification and winning all four awards that it was shortlisted for at the Accounting Excellence Awards, including Large Accounting Firm of the Year 2024, Large Employer of the Year, Best Client Service and Pride – ESG award for its responsible business journey.
Joe Scaife, head of Audit added: “On behalf of our partnership, I congratulate Dan on his promotion to audit director as well as all the other promotions across our large audit team.
“We have seen audit revenues increase by at least 23 per cent in each of the last three years.
“With another strong year underway, the firm is on track for similar results, further solidifying our position as one of the region’s leading audit providers. This round of promotions will support that ongoing growth drive.”
