Xeinadin promotes 10 new partners across UK and Ireland
Xeinadin has appointed 10 new partners across its UK and Ireland network, reinforcing its advisory capabilities and internal leadership pipeline.
Xeinadin has promoted ten senior professionals to partner, lifting its total partner count above 200 across nine regional hubs.
The appointments, announced this week, come amid a continued push to expand the firm’s advisory footprint and deepen its leadership bench at a time when SMEs are demanding more strategic input on tax, succession planning, and business resilience.
Chief executive Derry Crowley said the new partners “have demonstrated years of unwavering commitment, excellence and leadership,” describing the promotions as part of the group’s wider strategy to invest in internal talent and strengthen service delivery across the UK and Ireland.
Xeinadin, formed through a merger of over 100 small accountancy firms in 2019, has grown steadily in recent years, largely by positioning itself between the Big Four and smaller independent practices.
The latest round of promotions includes professionals with experience in audit, tax, corporate restructuring and specialist areas such as agricultural finance and cloud accounting.
Among those promoted is Adam Marlow, who joined the profession in 1988 and has focused on business sales, virtual FD support and inheritance tax strategies.
Others include Deborah Fletcher-McVay, a former Big Four auditor with experience spanning legal practices and not-for-profits, and Alan Taylor, who led cloud software rollouts during the Making Tax Digital transition.
Several of the newly appointed partners have longstanding ties to their regional offices. Carl Danvers, for instance, qualified in 2001 and helped lead his local firm into the Xeinadin group before becoming Area Managing Partner for Leicester.
While the firm did not disclose how the promotions might alter its governance or regional leadership, the appointments highlight the group’s ongoing emphasis on succession planning and sector specialisation.
The promotions span sectors including construction, legal, agriculture, and owner-managed businesses.
Crowley said the firm remains focused on helping clients navigate “increasingly complex” economic conditions. “As we continue to expand capabilities and help SMEs build greater financial resilience,” he noted, “these new partners will play a central role.”
