Crowe Horwath chairman Richard Grellman said that as the previous group CFO, Mr Price gained a deep understanding of the financials of the business, which would serve him well in his role.
“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.
