An award-winning accountancy company’s expert audit team has been further strengthened by an exciting new appointment.
Rushden-based Elsby & Co has made a series of new appointments to continue to drive forward its dynamic business, including the appointment of its new Audit Manager, Amy Mullock.
Amy joins a strong audit team which includes Partner Leona Bateman, an ARA (Atol Reporting Accountant) who has Top 20 firm experience.
Leona, who specialises in limited company and charity audits, said: “Our audits are more than just a
compliance exercise – we see the audit process as an opportunity for us to give our clients valuable insights into their operations that can help them to thrive.
“As a result of this approach, we’ve seen demand for our audit services increase and our dedicated audit team has grown significantly.
“By appointing specialist team members like Amy we’ve further strengthened our ability to deliver
high-quality, efficient and insightful audit services – whether the engagement is large or small – and we’re demonstrating our commitment to giving our clients the very best support when it comes to audits.
“One of the advantages of being an agile, forward-thinking firm is we can partner with larger practices by taking on audits that may be below their threshold, while our growing in-house expertise also positions us perfectly to deliver on more complex, larger scale audits independently.
“We’re excited about welcoming Amy to Elsby & Co, the next chapter in our audit story and the opportunities it brings for our clients, our team, and our continued growth as a firm.”
In addition to investing in its team, the firm has also improved its internal processes and embraced new technical advancements. Thanks to these investments, Elsby & Co can offer audits to a wide range of industries, charities and to businesses of all sizes, including large organisations.
Further exciting developments at Elsby & Co include the appointment of Senior Accountant James Cavendish and the promotion of Carina Benzie ACCA to Associate Partner.
Elsby & Co Managing Director Claire Emery said: “We’re thrilled to welcome James, who has brought with him a wealth of experience of successfully managing clients’ needs.
“We’re also delighted to have promoted Carina to the key role of Associate Partner. Carina has been an integral part of our team since July 2017.
“I’m very proud to say I headhunted her all those years ago and have watched her grow into the brilliant accountant, manager and leader she is today.
“Carina has shown incredible commitment, resilience and loyalty to Elsby & Co, and has become a massive support to both me and the team. Her promotion is thoroughly deserved and a reflection of the value she brings to the company.
“This promotion marks an exciting milestone not only for Carina but also for Elsby & Co as we continue to invest in developing our people and strengthening our business for the future.”
As part of its work to strengthen the business for the future, Elsby & Co also held an internal Focus Day last month to give its team the opportunity to review and improve its processes and address challenges.
To help bring fresh perspectives, staff were divided into a variety of teams which gave colleagues from different areas of the business the chance to work together.
Claire Emery added: “It was great to see everyone working together and coming up with interesting ways to further improve areas of the business – all with the aim of making things better internally and, even more importantly, improving our service for our clients.
“We work extremely hard to deliver highly professional, efficient and comprehensive services to our clients and have invested time and effort in developing our customer journey to make things as easy as possible for the businesses we support. We’re also investing in technology to ensure we remain at the cutting edge of the latest advancements.
“We pride ourselves on building lasting client relationships and it’s not surprising that our biggest source of new business comes from client referrals. This is testament to the fact that everything we do stems from our desire to be the only accountant our clients will ever need, or wish to consult, throughout the lifetime of their business and beyond.”
