Gemma’s rapid rise to Azets’ Associate Director

Gemma has been part of the 50-person, six-partner office in Peterborough since 2008, qualifying as a Chartered Accountant in 2014 and is now embarking on her new role within the office. Specialising in audit and assurance within the not-for-profit, charity, education and commercial sectors, Gemma is delighted to be in her new role, doing the job she loves.

She said: “I was absolutely thrilled to join the firm, following an application to a letter posted on the sixth form notice board at my school, Spalding Grammar School, inviting people to apply to become a trainee at Rawlinsons Accountants in Peterborough.

Gemma has managed a large team since Rawlinsons was acquired by the Baldwins Group in 2018. In September 2020, the Baldwins Group was rebranded to Azets. As an Associate Director, she will have a key role to play not only with her clients but also in the development and running of the office.

Azets Peterborough Office Managing Partner, Mark Jackson said: “We are delighted to be able to announce the promotion of Gemma to Associate Director at Azets. It is always good to see people progress and her promotion is well deserved.

Having joined the firm, after completion of her A Levels, Gemma Wright has now been promoted to Associate Director by firm Azets.

“Having worked within the firm since 2008, I can’t see myself doing anything else. I enjoy being part of the business, supporting colleagues and most importantly helping my clients.”

“She joined us from school, moved through her AAT and ICAEW exams with first time passes and now provides an excellent service to a variety of corporate, charitable and academy clients. Gemma has also been a great advocate of improving our impact on the environment and supporting our local community.”
