PWC has appointed former Shell and Deloitte executive Steven Heeps as a director at its Glasgow office.

Heeps will sit within the growing risk assurance team, bringing finance and technology expertise to the firm, where he will work with clients across sectors including financial services and oil and gas to provide governance, risk and compliance services.

Heeps is a chartered accountant who started his career with Deloitte prior to joining Shell in 2013.

He initially joined Shell’s risk and compliance organisation. He was then head of financial control for Shell’s trading and supply business, one of the world’s largest commodity trading businesses.

Kenny Wilson of PwC said: “I’m delighted to welcome someone of Steven’s calibre to our team. As PwC continues to develop a suite of specialist services to our clients, technology is playing an increasingly important role in our business, and with Steven’s experience in both finance and technology, I’m confident he will be a tremendous asset.”
