Nick brings a wealth of experience to the team, having worked for large international businesses, mentored start-up companies in the technology sector, consulted with various FTSE 100 companies and government, as well as a number of PE backed businesses.

Nick will be based in the activpayroll headquarters in Aberdeen and will be responsible for helping shape the strategic and continued international growth, capitalising on the ever-increasing demand for activpayroll’s payroll and tax solutions.
Nick Southwell, CFO of activpayroll, said: “I’m thrilled to be appointed as the new CFO at activpayroll and I’m really looking forward to working with team. I’m certain that my varied experience built over the years will allow me to further strengthen not only activpayroll’s finance team, but the business as a whole, helping it achieve its potential.”
