Bromsgrove-based Chartered Accountants Curo starts 2022 by taking on a new partner as it continues to expand across the West Midlands region and beyond. Set up in 2005 by former KPMG colleagues Anna Madden and Julia Gallagher, Curo has grown steadily and is now firmly established as a go-to advisor for entrepreneurial businesses.

Stuart Wood joins Curo from KPMG in Birmingham where he was an Audit Director for nearly 20 years. He is a Fellow of the Institute of Chartered Accountants England and Wales and has a wealth of knowledge advising medium and large owner managed businesses and UK subsidiaries of overseas parents regarding audit and accounting issues. In addition, he has significant experience in mentoring and training colleagues.

Says Curo Co-founder and partner Anna Madden “Julia & I have known Stuart for many years, working closely with him at KPMG before we left to set up Curo. His years of experience and wide-ranging skill set are the perfect fit for Curo’s entrepreneurial and overseas client base and will allow us to continue to grow. His reputation precedes him and we are delighted to be working yet again with a professional held in such high esteem by so many of the business community”.

Stuart joins as Audit partner and will be working closely with Anna Madden on Curo’s audit clients, further delivering Curo’s unique selling point of big firm expertise but without the price tag.

Says Anna “We have big plans for expansion and have long collaborated with Stuart and KPMG whilst being at different practices; this move allows us to deliver a more seamless offering and help our clients thrive as they transition through the various phases of growth.”
