Biography
A Cardiff girl born and bred and Welsh learner, I moved to Birmingham to train, working for the Big 4 in audit and assurance before moving back to Wales in 2000. I have broad business experience and before I took a Group role in Azets in 2020, having advised businesses across a wide spectrum of services and industries.
I am primarily an audit and regulatory compliance specialist and Audit Compliance Principal for Azets, as well as Azets Group M & A Compliance Director. In my career at Azets I have been UK Head of Audit and UK Head of Regulatory Compliance. My career has been specialist and the National Head of Audit for Baldwins. My career has been entirely practice based.
I have been heavily involved in Welsh business life and simultaneously involved with ICAEW in various capacities. I have been a member of the South Wales district society for 15 years and was the Society President in 2015. I was the Support Member (Practice) for Wales. This is a role that I undertook for more than 15 years (until June 2024) and in which I hope to have made a difference by assisting members in difficulty find a route through their issue – be they professional or private. Recently a member of ICAEW Audit Committee, later Chair (until June 2024).
