REDDITCH-based Hayward Wright Accountancy Group has appointed a new director to its senior management team as it sets its sights on further expansion.

Gareth Wood, who was born in the town, has been promoted from his role as client manager following an impressive 18 months in which he has brought in new clients and played a role in the company’s ambitious growth plans.

The management accountant and business finance specialist, who joined Hayward Wright in March last year, will now take the lead in the company’s organic growth plans, working closely with its teams in Redditch, Worcester and Solihull.

Alistair Hayward-Wright, founder and managing director of Hayward Wright Accountancy Group said: “We knew when Gareth joined us last year that he was a talented and well-connected accountant who builds a strong rapport with clients.




“In 18 months he has more than proved his talent and ambition. He is a first-rate accountant and someone with the ability to give clear and concise advice. His promotion is well-deserved and I am delighted to have Gareth as part of our new-look senior team.”

In March this year Hayward Wright, which is headquartered in Redditch, completed a deal to acquire Solihull-based practice, Bushell Smith Harman, a move which has expanded the firm’s presence and client base in south Birmingham and Solihull.


Hayward Wright specialises in a variety of financial matters including tax planning, book keeping, accounts, audit reports and commercial finance.
