Accountancy and business advisory firm BDO LLP has strengthened its team in the Midlands, with the appointment of two directors.
Dan Corden and Liam O’Donohue join as directors in the Business Services & Outsourcing (BS&O) team, covering both the East and West Midlands. The duo’s arrival follows the firm’s move to a prominent office location in Nottingham city centre, cementing its commitment to the regional market.
Corden, who has over 10 years’ experience in financial and operational management, will be responsible for expanding the firm’s outsourcing and advisory offering across the whole of the Midlands, focusing specifically on ambitious entrepreneurial owner managed businesses and SMEs, as well as the technology and creative sectors.
O’Donohue – a qualified Chartered Certified Accountant – brings considerable experience to the BS&O team, having worked in the accountancy and business advisory sector since 2001. He will focus specifically on entrepreneurial, high growth and international Midlands-based businesses in the automotive, transport and manufacturing sectors.
Suk Aulak, partner at BDO in the Midlands, said: “In the last 12 months, our BS&O offering has seen considerable growth across the region, as we continue to support businesses to help them meet their growth ambitions, while facing changing requirements and economic forces.
“We’re delighted to have strengthened our Midlands teams with the appointment of Dan and Liam – two outstanding individuals who will add real value to our regional proposition.”
Corden said: “It’s a really exciting time to be joining the Midlands team, following the move into high-profile offices earlier this month. The move cements the firm’s commitment to the region and provides us with the perfect base to support and engage with entrepreneurial and fast-growth businesses across the whole region that are looking to outsource a range of accounting, advisory and compliance services.”
O’Donohue added: “There’s significant market potential in the Midlands for Business Services & Outsourcing and we’re looking forward to working alongside a fantastic team in both the East and West Midlands, to help develop exciting opportunities at both a local and national level.”
