The consulting division of BHP Chartered Accountants is pleased to announce the appointment of three experienced business leaders.
Rachel Hannan, Richard Simpson and David Manley join Head of Consulting David Mitchell and Mark Roberts, previously the Managing Director at Andrew Page Ltd, to form a powerful team which will help businesses across the region to develop and implement growth strategies.

Richard Simpson brings extensive sales and customer experience to the team; he has grown companies of all sizes, including taking Shred It UK to become an established business with a turnover of £50 million over a period of 10 years.
David Manley brings with him a great breadth of experience in operational improvement and diversified growth, and has a strong background in export markets. He is extensively experienced in M&A, both as an acquirer and a target, as well as being familiar with the requirements of Private Equity as an employee and a business owner.
David Mitchell commented, “The real strength comes from our collective experience. As a team we can offer clients a depth and diversity of practical experience, having been there and done it ourselves, we can cover all key areas of consulting needed by business owners who want to grow their companies. We focus in supporting businesses with their overall strategy and sales growth activities and specialise particularly in their operational, customer base and human capital development.”
