Azets appoints partners amid record 14% revenue growth

Azets has announced the appointments of Ravi Hungsraz and Melanie Prestwich to the roles of partner, following the firm’s reported year-on-year “record” revenue growth of 14%. 

It is reported that due to the firm’s double-digit growth, it has experienced “significant” increase in demand for audit from larger corporations, as well as its broad client base including SMEs and Owner-Managed Businesses (OMBs). 

Based at Azet’s London Bridge office in King William Street, Hungsraz joins as a partner in the audit and business advisory team, while Prestwich is partner in the corporate tax department.  

Prestwich is a tax specialist with 26 years of experience in partner and managing director positions at firms nationwide. 

In her new role, she will be responsible for delivering commercial, practical tax advice in often complex matters for clients including family and OMBs, and their associated private individuals.

Hungsraz is an experienced business advisor who has joined the firm after working in well-established, mid-tier London accountancy firms for the past 16 years. 

In his new role, he will be responsible for advising OMBs, as well as large international organisations, on a range of services such as accounting, audit and assurance and tax advisory.

Ian Jefferson, regional managing partner at Azets, said: “Following a significant period of growth, recruiting two new partners of the calibre of Melanie and Ravi is a major coup for Azets and our London office. Both bring an exceptional amount of talent, experience and expertise to support Azets’ diverse and expanding client base in the London area.

“Melanie and Ravi will play significant roles in Azets’ ambitious growth plans for the London office as we continue to grow our team, provide valuable professional advice and seize greater market share across multiple sectors.”
