Shaw Gibbs announces the appointment of Fran Kidd as Marketing & Business Development Manager

Fran has over 10 years’ experience in promoting and developing accountancy practices on a local and national basis. 

Peter O’Connell comments: “We are very pleased to welcome Fran as a Marketing & Business Development Manager. We are very impressed with Fran's knowledge of the Oxford and London marketplaces and her experience of both local practice and latterly a top 10 firm. We warmly welcome Fran to the Shaw Gibbs team and look forward to working with her.” 

Fran adds: “I am excited to have joined Shaw Gibbs at a time when the business has recently expanded into London and joined the DFK international network, there is a lot of opportunity for growth in both these areas as well as in the buoyant economy of Oxford. I received a lot of formal training during my time with RSM and worked with a large marketing team from whom I learnt a great deal. I also experienced international business development as part of my role as Business Development Manager for the US desk. I am pleased to bring these skills back to Oxford and to Shaw Gibbs, a forward-thinking firm with fantastic growth aspirations. It is also great to be back in Oxford with its warm and collaborative business community.” 

A Chartered Marketer, Fran joins Shaw Gibbs from RSM, the seventh largest accountancy practice in the UK, where she was the Business Development Manager for the Reading office and nationally for the US desk. Prior to this Fran was Marketing and Business Development Manager for Critchleys.
