Shorts’ managing director elected to global board of Praxity

Shorts’ managing partner Andy Irvine has been elected to the Global Governing Council and Board of Praxity, the world’s largest alliance of independent accounting and consulting firms.

Having played an active role within the alliance and chaired the UK conference for four years, Irvine’s appointment to the global board reflects his commitment to the future success of the alliance.

Shorts has been a member of Praxity since 2018, and in the six years since joining, it has forged “strong” relationships with member firms and extended its reach to businesses worldwide.

The alliance provides a “modern” responsive delivery model that gives its clients access to quality auditing, tax, accountancy and advice around the world.

Irvine said “I look forward to working with Steffen Aherns, Jason Drake and the rest of the Praxity board as we focus on developing the alliance for an exciting future, whilst continuing to serve our global clients with outstanding work.”
