Introducing new additions to the Magee Gammon family
They say everybody gets their 15 minutes of fame and for these three lucky individuals the time has come! So please
join us in welcoming Andy, Saffron and Debi to the Magee Gammon family.
All three are great additions and complement the practice by adding their skills and knowledge to the already
experienced and specialist in-house team, ensuring that Magee Gammon is one of the most prominent independent
firms of Chartered Accountants in Kent.
So without further ado we’d like to firstly
welcome Andy Vanburen who joined us
as a Senior Manager, to assist with client
development. Andy has a background in
general practice and industry spanning
more than 25 years, most recently from the
manufacturing and engineering sector. He
joins the practice from a large, privately
owned company where he was Financial
Controller within a group employing more
than 500 staff.
He brings with him a wealth of knowledge, as well as strong
commercial experience developed from his challenging role
overseeing a diverse portfolio of business activities, which
include accounting, tax, cash flow forecasting and capital
investment funding.
Interesting fact about Andy – he enjoys cycling and is a
self-confessed MAMIL (middle aged man in lycra), having recently
completed a three-day London to Paris ride.
We’d also like to welcome Saffron Waghorn
who joined as a Trainee Accountant. Saffron
is providing general accountancy support to
the team in her role.
Saffron has a degree in Accounts and
Finance from the University of Kent and
her next goal is to complete the ICAEW’s
qualification. Whilst in her role at the
practice, she will be benefitting from our full
support and assistance in her development,
delivered by a mix of our experienced in-house specialists and
supported by professional accreditation bodies.
Interesting fact about Saffron – she enjoys nothing more than
spending the day at the zoo with her niece and nephew.
And last but by no means least is our most
recent addition, Debi Faulds (pictured right)
who joined as Payroll Senior. Debi’s role
includes providing payroll administration,
company secretarial, business services and
client liaison support for the payroll team.
Debi started her payroll career 19 years ago,
returning this year after having managed a
public house for a few years. She is IPPM
qualified and holds a CIPD Certificate in
Human Resources Practice.
Interesting fact about Debi – she loves going on adventures with
her family and this summer has plans to complete the first 50 miles
of the Camino de Santiago, a 500 mile walk through the Pyrenees,
across Spain.
Having just celebrated our 25th anniversary in 2017, the practice is
well established and respected in the local and surrounding areas,
as well as much further afield.
This can and has only been achieved by consistently providing
exceptional service and by building long lasting business
relationships within the local community, combined with the
dedication and commitment from the partners and staff throughout
the practice.
