Accounting association Allinial Global names new CEO
Accountancy association Allinial Global has announced the appointment of Tony Sacre as its new CEO.
Sacre will take over the role from Mark Koziel, who has moved on to become the CEO at AICPA & CIMA.
He is the first CEO from the APAC region to lead the association.
Sacre has more than 25 years of leadership experience in the financial sector. He has worked with institutions such as ANZ Banking Group, Commonwealth Bank, HSBC, JP Morgan, and National Australia Bank.
His expertise spans across financial markets, trade finance, and strategic advisory services, particularly in the Asia Pacific region.
Since 2018, Sacre has held the position of CEO at Bentleys Australia and New Zealand, a mid-tier accounting firm and a member of Allinial Global.
He has previously served on the association's Global Executive Board and APAC Regional Board.
Sacre said: “It is an honour to take on this role and build upon the tremendous success of Allinial Global.
“The need for forward-thinking leadership and cross-border collaboration has never been greater. I look forward to working with our incredible member firms to drive innovation, enhance global service capabilities, and position Allinial Global as the premier association for independent accounting and advisory firms worldwide.”
Global Executive Board Chair and BPM CEO Jim Wallace said: “With his extensive global experience, strategic mindset, and deep connection to the Allinial Global community, Tony Sacre is the ideal leader to guide our association into the future.
“His understanding of the challenges and opportunities facing Allinial Global member firms and his leadership in fostering international collaboration align perfectly with our mission to empower firms for sustainable success.”
Last year, amid layoffs at some larger accounting firms, Allinial Global's member firms were experiencing growth and were actively recruiting to bolster their teams.
