Dave Mosley has been appointed as Director at local accountancy firm Cleland & Co.
Dave initially joined Cleland & Co in 2023 to provide short-term cover and has since become a permanent fixture in the firm. Over the past several months, he has worked closely with Managing Director Vicki Webster and Director Sammie Cox, gaining in-depth knowledge of their portfolios and the full breadth of Cleland & Co’s loyal client base.
Bringing 14 years of experience from a Big Four firm, Dave offers a fresh perspective on audit practices. His extensive background, combined with his technical audit expertise, is helping Cleland & Co stay ahead of industry changes.
Dave has his own client portfolio and will provide accountancy, audit and tax services to local businesses spanning a range of industries.
Managing Director Vicki Webster said: “Dave has settled into his role quickly, having spent time with us before covering maternity leaves, and his approach has been a great fit for our team. He encourages a culture of challenge, bringing a relaxed yet thoughtful leadership style that has been well received by the team. His experience and fresh perspective have reinvigorated our approach to new client areas, particularly in funds, and his appointment strengthens our governance and board structure.”
Discussing his decision to join Cleland & Co, Dave said: “The local aspect of the firm really appealed to me. Coming from a Big Four background, I was drawn to the opportunity to build stronger, more personal relationships with clients and working for a firm where the decision-making process is more efficient. As a board, we are in control of shaping Cleland’s future, and that’s extremely rewarding.”
