HURST promotes Ryan Tattler to associate partner
UK-based independent accounting and business advisory firm HURST has promoted Ryan Tattler to the role of associate partner. Since his start as a trainee, Tattler has achieved four promotions, now joining the leadership team in the business services division. The business services team at HURST, which Tattler is now a part of as associate partner, is the firm's largest, comprising more than 70 staff. This team is responsible for a range of services, including audit, compliance, strategic advisory, outsourcing, and business planning, catering to a growing national client base.

Like Tattler, Booth, Hall, and Everett began their careers at HURST as trainees and have since qualified with the firm. Additionally, Danielle Tierney recently advanced to the position of manager within HURST Corporate Finance. Reflecting on his promotion, Tattler stated, "I'm incredibly proud to have been promoted to associate partner. It's a significant milestone in my career and a reflection of the support and opportunities I've had at HURST over the past ten years." He credits the variety and complexity of his work, as well as the training and development provided by colleagues, for his career progression. HURST partner Mike Jackson, who heads the business services team, said: 'Ryan has shown he can build strong relationships with clients while maintaining the market leading professional standards we expect. He has also shown himself to be a strong leader within the firm, helping to drive change and develop how we run the business.' Founded in 1982, HURST is known for its specialisation in advising owner-managed businesses, private equity-backed enterprises, and UK subsidiaries of overseas parent companies.
