Stepping up: Outsourcing specialist promoted to Partner in Menzies’ Solent office

Accountancy firm Menzies LLP has promoted outsourcing services specialist Phil Wright to Partner in its Solent office.

Phil’s time at Menzies started all the way back in 2006, when he joined the firm straight out of university, starting in its Accounts and Audit team.

Since then, he has helped to establish the firm’s Outsourced Finance Director service, making use of his skills in client handling and interest in supporting the development of growing businesses.

In his current role, Phil enjoys working closely with SMEs, advising them on all aspects of financial management, reporting, and business planning.

Phil is joined in his promotion by Rachel Lai, in Menzies’ Cardiff office, a Licensed Insolvency Practitioner who has also been promoted to Partner.

Simon Massey, Managing Partner at Menzies LLP, said: “I am delighted to announce that Rachel Lai and Phil Wright have been promoted to the partnership. Both are extremely well deserved and reflect our continued growth as a thriving mid-tier accountancy firm and investment in talent.

“Rachel and Phil have worked their way through the ranks at Menzies and it is particularly satisfying to be able to reward their commitment and achievements as they progress their careers further with the firm.

“These promotions support our plans for growth and are motivated by a desire to provide high-quality, strategic services for the benefit of our clients.”
