Due to the continuing growth of its Durham office, RMT Accountants & Business Advisors has added to its existing team by bringing in three new recruits.
John Aitken has joined RMT’s Belmont Business Park-based team as an assistant manager, with Aidan Turner and Oliver Swan taking up positions as accountants in the Corporate Services team.
John brings more than a decade’s experience to his new role, which he gained at professional services firms across the North East.
He holds an Accounting & Finance degree from Northumbria University and is now responsible for managing the delivery of accounting services across the portfolio of SME and family company clients.
He has also taken on the responsibility of managing the office’s Making Tax Digital service to relevant clients.
Aidan completed a three-year accountancy apprenticeship before moving to RMT, while Oliver has previously worked in banking and professional services positions.
Aidan holds the Level 3 diploma from the Association of Accounting Technicians, with Oliver holding the Level 2 AAT diploma. Both are now working towards completing their professional qualifications with RMT’s support.
John Aitken says: “From our first meeting, I got a very positive impression of the firm and the people here, and I could see the opportunities for personal and professional progression that joining RMT would offer.
“I’m enjoying being part of a friendly, professional team that’s been more than willing to help me as I’ve settled in.
“There’s a lot for me to learn, but I’m very pleased to have made the move here and excited about my future career prospects.”
