Keith Higson FCA
Keith has been in the accountancy profession since 1975 and qualified as a Chartered Accountant in 1979. Throughout the majority of his career he has been involved in general practice work, although valuable audit experience was gained during his time spent overseas with 'Big 4' firms immediately after qualifying. Since his return to the UK in the mid-1980's Keith has always acted at partner level assisting a wide variety of clients and has been instrumental in the development of the current practice.
