Maeve Hunt has been re-elected Chairperson of Chartered Accountants Ulster Society at its virtual AGM. She becomes the first Chairperson since 1958 to serve a second term of the body which represents over 5,000 Chartered Accountants across Northern Ireland. The Society took the decision to re-elect its Chairperson and Officer Group to provide stability and continuity as its members advise businesses, charities and organisations throughout Northern Ireland during the easing of COVID-19 restrictions and economic reopening. Speaking at the Society’s AGM Maeve Hunt said: “The last year has been like no other. The expertise of our membership base has never been needed more. As we move forward, bouncing back from this health crisis will be the challenge of a generation. We will be using our voice to urge leaders to move quickly to help Northern Ireland to recover strongly from the pandemic.”
