Accountancy and business advisory firm BDO LLP has strengthened its technology risk assurance team (TRA) with the appointment of Dee Vaghela, who joined in March.

Dee joins the national technology risk assurance practice from EY. Based in the Midlands, his role will see him support new and existing external audit clients leveraging technology solutions, data analytics and controls specialists across our client portfolio. He has particular expertise within the natural resources and energy and manufacturing sectors.

Richard Rose, BDO partner and head of the Midlands said:“Dee’s appointment is part of our continued investment in our wider audit and assurance team and his technology risk experience will complement the expertise of our team in the Midlands and beyond.

“We are seeing increasingly complex audits in the Midlands and across the UK. Over the last few years BDO’s technology and risk assurance team has grown to over 100 partners and colleagues and continues to grow, supporting a wide variety of clients. Having Dee join the team in the Midlands is a boost to our credentials in the region.”
