Promotions as WNJ looks to the future

Leading Lancashire-based accountancy practice WNJ has announced a string of promotions as it continues with its development plans.

The move sees the creation of four new Associates based at WNJ’s offices at Ferry Road Office Park in Preston.

In his new role Chris Watson will head WNJ’s highly regarded and growing tax consultancy team.

Matthew Johnson’s promotion will allow him to continue to focus on developing new business.

Stuart Iddon’s promotion to Associate will see him working in a corporate finance advisory role. And he will also be responsible for auditing and compliance within the practice.

And Donna Helm’s new Associate role will see her spearheading the development of the WNJ cloud accounting team, helping and supporting clients as they prepare for the future requirements of the Making Tax Digital drive.

WNJ partner Michael Barker said: “The promoted individuals all have different specific areas of expertise and experience but they share our core values that deliver excellent client relationships and service.

“It is particularly pleasing that three of the four all came to this firm from college or university, showing that WNJ provides first-class training and development opportunities as well as long-term client relationships. “We are delighted to announce their promotion to Associate level and wish them well in their new roles, which include developing our range of services to deliver even more to our clients.”
