David Ng Chuen - pictured above - has made the long journey from the far away isle of Mauritius to join the Keighley team at Horwath Clark Whitehill with a view to becoming a fully qualified UK chartered accountant.

David joined the chartered accountants and business advisors to embark on a two-year training contract that will take him towards his dream.

Already a UK certified accountant, David has been training with DCDM, the representative for one of the 'Big Four' accountancy firms in Mauritius, for the last three years. He is keen to return fully chartered and in a position to become a partner in the organisation.

Since joining Horwath Clark Whitehill last month David has been familiarising himself with the Keighley office and its clients, as well as the local surroundings and readjusting to the cultural leap from Mauritius to Yorkshire.
