Accountancy and business advisory firm BDO LLP has announced the promotion of more than 80 people across its team in the South East, including one promotion to partner.
Effective from 1st November, Chris Wingrave has been promoted to partner in the firm’s South East audit practice.

I’m looking forward to continuing to support both new and existing clients in my role as partner.”
