“I am excited about this new chapter at Shaw Gibbs. It is clear that Peter O’Connell, his leadership and the Apiary team are passionate about developing the people side of the business as part of their overall strategy.”

Peter O’Connell, Chief Executive Officer, remarks

“Scaling sustainably demands more than headcount growth – it requires investment in how we empower professionals at every tier, from those who are on the first rung of their career ladder to strategic hires.

Angus will help us build a people strategy and lead the HR teams, including Recruitment and Learning & Development at Shaw Gibbs. His position will be pivotal in countless ways.”

A great believer in balancing the blend of tech-enhancements and developing the talent to work alongside it, Angus will be starting his career with Shaw Gibbs by joining a panel at the 2025 Digital Accountancy Show discussing the role that AI plays in accountancy practices.
