Paul Druckman named non-exectutive chairman for Access

Access, the mid-market consulting, software and solutions provider, has named leading industry expert, Paul Druckman, as its non-executive chairman. He will take up the position from Monday 1st February 2010. Paul has been a non-executive director of the company since 2004, when the business first started to accelerate through acquisition.

Paul has enjoyed a long and high profile career in the UK business and accounting profession, spanning more than 25 years.

His positions included: President of the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England & Wales; chairman of the CCAB (the six UK accounting bodies); a board director and council member of the Financial Reporting Council and chair of the Audit Committee; and a member of the City Takeover Panel.
