We welcome Daniel Little FCCA, as Account and Audit Senior and have recently recruited two new apprentices.
Educated at Brooke Weston Academy, Daniel started his accountancy career as a trainee in Corby, gaining his AAT qualification in 2017, becoming ACCA qualified in 2019. He has worked with clients for over a decade, delivering a broad range of audit and accounting services across Northamptonshire. Reporting to the Partners, Daniel’s role includes planning audits, visiting clients to identify, analyse and report potential audit and business risks alongside accounting and tax services.
CFW Partner David Baker comments, “We’re delighted Daniel has joined our team. His audit experience, especially with larger businesses turning over up to £60 million, will be very valuable for us as we develop our practice further. We’re seeing an increased number of clients coming to us who require audits and robust risk assessments.”
Daniel adds, “Everyone has been so welcoming and its refreshing to see how different CFW’s client-centred approach is. Partners involve team members in close interaction with clients. By building relationships with the whole team, clients know who to contact if the partner isn’t available. CFW also promotes work/life balance in a very positive way.”
In his spare time Daniel enjoys cycling, walking, and travelling and is looking forward to the birth of his first child this June.
Two new apprentices have also been recruited to support business development and growth plans and will start at CFW this summer.

With almost 11 million UK adults using BNPL in 2024, according to an FCA survey, this is a significant change.
