Crowe Horwath names CEO


Listed financial planning and accountancy firm Crowe Horwath has officially named Chris Price as its CEO and managing director.
Price, who was the company’s chief financial officer for six years, has been acting in the role since former CEO John Lombard stepped down in early September.
Prior to joining Crowe Horwath, Price worked extensively in the chartered accounting and manufacturing industries.
Commenting on the permanent appointment, chairman Richard Grellman said Price’s experience as CFO stood him in good stead.
“We are confident that under his leadership Crowe Horwath will leverage its strong distribution network as the largest of the mid-tier accounting firms,” he said.
