RSM Tenon takes on two
RSM Tenon has appointed two audit and pensions experts to its Birmingham office. Christian Holyhead and John Pollard join the accountancy firm in a bid to “build RSM Tenon’s share of the market” in the West Midlands.
Holyhead takes up the post of associate director in the audit, tax and advisory team with 17 years’ experience in providing audit and advisory services to both local and international businesses.
He is joined by Pollard, who comes from a specialist benefits consultancy in the West Midlands. He has more than two decades’ experience of the pensions market.
Their appointments follow those of Steve Thornhill, James Carnegie and Kerry Lane in the corporate finance team and Bev Marsh who is the new head of the Birmingham corporate recovery team.
Holyhead said: “Having worked with large corporate clients for many years, I am joining the UK’s seventh largest firm at a time when it is developing a strong presence in the mid-tier, and really gathering momentum in terms of strong growth and its range of clients and services.
“It is a very competitive environment for companies, who are challenging the quality and cost effectiveness of their professional services, and I believe there are some real opportunities for RSM Tenon to make its presence felt, particularly in view of the strength of the RSM International network across the world”
Alan Webb, regional head of RSM Tenon in the West Midlands, said: “We have appointed a series of regional heavy weights to further enhance our offering in the Midlands region. The arrival of Christian and John has added more expertise to our teams and boosts our offering across the region as well as on a national level.”
