Allinial Global has announced the appointment of Tony Sacre as its new chief executive officer, succeeding Mark Koziel who led the US-based group before accepting the role of CEO at AICPA and CIMA.
Sacre brings over 25 years of leadership experience across major global financial institutions, including ANZ Banking Group, Commonwealth Bank, HSBC, JP Morgan, and National Australia Bank.
He has also held leadership positions across the Asia Pacific region, specialising in financial markets, trade finance, and strategic advisory services.
Since 2018, Sacre has served as CEO of Bentleys Australia and New Zealand, a mid-tier accounting firm in that market and a long-standing Allinial Global member firm.
Having also served on the association’s global executive board and APAC regional board, he brings a “deep” understanding of Allinial Global’s mission and needs.
Sacre, who is the first CEO from the APAC region in Allinial Global history, will ensure continued support for the group’s US market presence while further expanding the association’s reach and influence into key international markets.
Jim Wallace, CEO of BPM LLP and chair of Allinial’s global executive board, said: “With his extensive global experience, strategic mindset, and deep connection to the Allinial Global community, Tony Sacre is the ideal leader to guide our association into the future.
“His understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing Allinial Global member firms and his leadership in fostering international collaboration align perfectly with our mission to empower firms for sustainable success.”
Sacre added: “It is an honor to take on this role and build upon the tremendous success of Allinial Global. The need for forward-thinking leadership and cross-border collaboration has never been greater.
“I look forward to working with our incredible member firms to drive innovation, enhance global service capabilities, and position Allinial Global as the premier association for independent accounting and advisory firms worldwide.”
