Two new Associates welcomed at Greaves West & Ayre

We are delighted to announce two new Associates within Greaves West & Ayre. Carron McEwen and Neil Robertson took up their positions within the Practice on 16 December 2024.

Carron joined us on the 16 December from another Chartered Accountants firm in the Scottish Borders where she has been fulfilling a similar role. Carron is an experienced member of the accountancy profession qualifying as a Chartered Certified Accountant in 2009.

Carron works in general practice and has experience in working with owner managed business clients across various sectors. In her spare time, Carron enjoys spending time with her family.

Commenting on her appointment Carron said, “I am thrilled to continue my career with Greaves West & Ayre. The firm has an excellent reputation among both clients and employees, and I am excited to contribute to its ongoing growth and success”.

Neil Robertson in our Wealth Management Department also becomes an Associate. Neil joined us in 2012 from Stirling University as a graduate trainee Financial Advisor.

During his time with us, he has obtained his Wealth Management Diploma, and after further study qualified as a Chartered Financial Planner in 2019.

A glutton for punishment Neil has also gained qualifications with the Chartered Institute for Securities & Investment, which enable him to be Deputy Fund Manager of our Qualis Funds. He is studying for his Chartered Tax qualification too!

Neil commented, “I am pleased to become an Associate within GWA and look forward to maintaining and developing relationships with the firm’s many clients and contributing to the continued success of the business.”

GWA Partner, Colin Frame added, “The Partners are delighted to announce these two appointments and we look forward to watching them both continue to flourish in their careers with GWA. We have many more opportunities for those who join us as graduates/school leavers as well as those who start their careers elsewhere.

GWA works hard to collaborate as one firm to help look after our thousands of clients across the UK. 2024 ended on a high note with these two promotions and 2025 will be as equally exciting.”
