UK-based chartered accountancy and tax advisory practice HaysMac has appointed Dom Noakes to the position of head of technology.
Noakes has been part of the HaysMac team since 2016, initially joining as an assistant manager within the Business Support team and subsequently advancing to the role of director.
His experience covers various business services including management accounts, cloud advisory and cash flow reporting.
Notably, Noakes has been influential in assisting the company’s early-stage technology clients through their growth phases and has worked closely with the Transaction Advisory team, the company said.
Noakes said: “I am extremely excited and proud to be stepping into the role of head of technology. Our technology client base encompasses some of the UK’s most innovative businesses, fastest-growing companies, as well as household established industry names.
“The technology team at HaysMac is extremely talented and I am excited to build on this momentum to deliver even greater value to the clients we support now, and in the future.”
Noakes’ involvement has been central to HaysMac’s integration of cloud-based technology solutions and in maintaining relationships with key service providers, including Xero.
His efforts contributed to HaysMac being shortlisted as a finalist for Xero’s 2025 Large Firm of the Year.
HaysMac partner and Sectors & Markets head Jon Dawson said: “Dom’s work has been key in driving forward the growth of one of the firm’s most established sectors, bringing fantastic technology industry knowledge to the firm’s clients across all stages of the life cycle.
“The appointment of Dom reflects our continued investment in our expanding service lines and I am excited to see what Dom will do to further develop this exciting space.”
The appointment of Noakes comes at a time of significant development for HaysMac, including a rebranding initiative.
