Matthew qualified in 1996, joined Scodie Deyong as an audit senior in 2000 and in the time since then has built up a truly expert knowledge of audit and compliance. His appointment as partner means that Matthew now takes the practice lead in everything audit-related. That’s not to say he doesn’t take a little time off. If he is not working on audit procedure or practice assurance, you will find Matthew in the gym, supporting Middlesbrough FC or relaxing on the beach near his apartment in Mallorca.
