“My role will be to build on d&t’s outstanding reputation for service and delivery and to continue the business’s trajectory of growth and flair for innovation.  I am very much looking forward to developing new relationships as we expand our range of accountancy and business services in the industry.”

d&t – which won the 2018 British Franchise Association (BFA) Award for Innovation and Development and is known for its accountancy services nationwide – has recently launched two new facets to the business: d&t Funding and d&t Business Advisory.

Galvin concludes: 

“as an organisation, d&t has reached a particularly exciting time in its progress.  We now have our new Funding and Business Advisory departments in place backed by strong and experienced teams who are already helping clients develop their own businesses in a variety of industry sectors.  We anticipate these latest innovative additions to our portfolio of services will make a significant contribution to the growth of our clients’ businesses over the next few years and in-turn will allow us to further expand the scope of d&t.”
