Chris joined UHY Hacker Young in 1994 in an IT support role, before progressing to IT Manager and most recently IT Director. Chris has been instrumental in modernising UHY Hacker Young’s suite of technology for more than 25 years, from driving the move from DOS and Lotus to Windows and Office. Critically, he has recently led the hugely successful overnight transition to remote working during the pandemic.
Chris also assumed responsibility for the office services team in 2009 and has achieved considerable cost savings across both roles during his tenure.
Subarna Banerjee, London office Managing Partner says: “We have been fortunate to benefit from Chris’s expertise and commercial acumen for almost three decades. We are big believers in supporting our colleagues’ growth and progression and we are delighted to welcome Chris as a partner.
Chris has a wealth of proven experience and knowledge to help continue the growth of the firm. He is an expert in his area of practice and has played a key role in much of UHY Hacker Young’s success.
We are particularly proud to offer a route to partnership at UHY Hacker Young for those who are not accountants, tax professionals or insolvency practitioners. Chris has proven he is every bit as valuable to the firm as our fee-earners, all of our support staff add enormous value to our work for clients.”
Chris Hand is not the first non fee-earner to become a partner at UHY Hacker Young, as our Marketing and Business Development Director Zoë Paradine was made partner in 2017.
