Shaw Gibbs has appointed Angus as its new chief people officer (CPO).
The accountancy practice, which provides solutions for entrepreneurial businesses and private individuals in Central and Southern England, said MacGregor brings a wealth of experience from three decades in the financial services and legal sectors as both a legal and HR professional.
It added his passion is developing talent management and people strategies that deliver “rewarding careers which are aligned with business growth”.
A “believer in balancing the blend of tech-enhancements and developing the talent to work alongside it”, the firm added he will be starting his career with Shaw Gibbs by joining a panel at the 2025 Digital Accounting Show discussing the role that AI plays in accountancy practices.
He said: “I am excited about this new chapter at Shaw Gibbs. It is clear that Peter O’Connell, his leadership and the Apiary team are passionate about developing the people side of the business as part of their overall strategy.”
CEO Peter O’Connell added: “Scaling sustainably demands more than headcount growth – it requires investment in how we empower professionals at every tier, from those who are on the first rung of their career ladder to strategic hires.
“Angus will help us build a people strategy and lead the HR teams, including Recruitment and Learning & Development at Shaw Gibbs. His position will be pivotal in countless ways.”
