Vishal Chopra, now officially responsible for leading professional services firm KPMG in Scotland has revealed a new-look senior leadership team.
Vishal oversees a team of more than 900 people across KPMG’s offices in Glasgow, Edinburgh and Aberdeen after taking over as Office Senior Partner from James Kergon. He takes on the role having most recently led KPMG’s Scottish Tax team.
Vishal has outlined changes to the Scottish leadership team with Susan Dunlop heading up the Transaction Services business, and Graeme Williams having been promoted to Managing Director and leading the Corporate Finance team. Both are experienced leaders with a strong track record of supporting local businesses on mergers and acquisitions.
As a skilled Research and Development Partner, Sandra Gilchrist has taken on a role leading the Scottish Tax team, while Kelly Dunn transfers up to Scotland to lead the private business Audit offering in Scotland, both bringing a wealth of experience across a range of sectors.
Vishal said: “I am excited to take on my new role leading the Scottish business at KPMG. Susan, Graeme, Sandra, and Kelly will drive the support we provide to our clients, working with a fantastic team who are passionate about making a positive difference to local communities.
“The world is changing rapidly, with headwinds and uncertainties for business but also opportunities for growth. I’ve seen first-hand how Scottish businesses have shown great resilience to challenging economic conditions, and the country continues to lead the way globally across a range of sectors including financial services and renewable energy to name but a few.
“There are many reasons to be optimistic about what the future holds. I’m passionate about leading the firm into a future where we continue to deliver exceptional value for our clients, while fostering a culture of collaboration and inclusivity.”
