David Ewen, who initially trained with Hall Morrice, will re-join the team after a ten-year period working in the industry in a variety of roles.

Mr Ewen said: “I am bringing back a range of industry experience to Hall Morrice. I aim to use these experiences to support the firm’s existing commitment to understanding clients’ operations and requirements and delivering quality business advice and solutions. Hall Morrice’s client ethos and excellent team culture are some of the key elements which have attracted me back to the firm where I trained and where I enjoyed being part of the team.”

Bob Bain, managing partner at Hall Morrice, added: “We are delighted to welcome David back to our team. As a firm we look for individuals who bring flair, commercial acumen and a dynamic approach to our work and David bring these attributes with him along with a knowledge and understanding of some of our key client industries.

“We’re fortunate that our commitment to treating staff as individuals and supporting their individual goals and career aspirations means we have high retention levels of staff and that we are also an employer where team members are keen to re-join after gaining industry experience.”

In 2019, three of Hall Morrice’s young accountants were recognised as some of the brightest in the industry as they were named in the Top 100 CAs.

Another team member was named Accountant of the Year in the Scottish Accountancy and Finance Awards. Three out of four partners at Hall Morrice trained with the firm, while two out of three of the directors started their careers with Hall Morrice.

Bob Bain said: “Our mapping out of a career plan for all team members ensures our employees are motivated to be part of our team and David’s return demonstrates this.”
