GOLDWYNS - Key Persons
Arthur retired as a full-time partner in 2020 having spent over 45 years at the firm. With his wealth of knowledge and experience Arthur remains employed as a consultant, continuing to provide advice particularly for those clients he has acted for over the years. Many of the clients in his portfolio were handled by him for a very long time, and he has seen many clients through various changes such as the transfer of the business to the next generation, or a successful sale to new owners.
Bhooshan retired as a full time partner in September 2015 after over 30 years in the profession.
He is now a Consultant with Goldwyns where he continues to provide support to a wide range of business sectors.
David retired as a full time partner in June 2012 but his enthusiasm for successful accounting, taxation and business development services for the benefit of clients remains undiminished, and he continues as a Consultant with Goldwyns. The experience of almost 40 years since qualifying as a Chartered Accountant enables clients to utilise his knowledge of business and enterprise to positive effect and avoid costly mistakes.
David's passion for personal client attention is further extended to his charitable and community activities. He has been Chairman of Rochford & Rayleigh Citizens Advice Bureau for over 10 years, a keen Rotarian for a quarter of a century and a member of a number of other local community bodies. However his prowess in golf is as lamentable as ever.
