Jimmy is the Associate Audit Director at Hazlewoods in Gloucestershire

I began my accountancy journey at Hazlewoods as an ACA trainee back in 2015. Prior to that, I had a successful career as a professional rugby player in the Championship, representing teams like Jersey, Rotherham and Plymouth Albion. My work now spans a wide range of clients, with a particular focus on the construction industry. Outside of work I play rugby for Cinderford Rugby Club and enjoy spending time with the family and playing cricket or golf in the summer. Once my rugby days are over, my plan is to swap the rugby ball for a surfboard.
