All of this stands him in good stead in terms of supporting and looking after clients as they deal with the challenges faced in managing and growing businesses today. He also has a strong background in and appreciation of the use of technology to service the needs of clients who increasingly embrace and adopt digital working practices.”

When asked what it meant to be returning to Streets, Dean commented: “I am proud to be returning to Streets and to have been appointed as a director. The recent merger has provided me with the exciting local opportunity to be part of a forward-thinking practice that recognises the need to respond to the ever-changing world. The move also means that I will now be able to draw on the wider expertise of the Streets practice, which includes specialist corporate tax advice, corporate finance, accounting software and personal financial planning to support the needs of clients both now and in the future.”

“In my new role I am really looking forward to being able to build my own portfolio of entrepreneurial and SME clients and in particular creating closer ties with new and growing businesses that are located in the various business innovation and incubation centres across the area.”
