Until recently, Mellor was Crowe Clark Whitehill LLP’s chief executive, the UK member firm of Crowe Horwath International. He has served on the Crowe Horwath International board of directors for four years. Mellor graduated Oxford University in 1989 and has more than 25 years of professional experience advising international businesses and their shareholders on tax matters. He will continue to provide input, support and counsel to Crowe Clark Whitehill LLP up until the end of March 2018.
“It is a privilege to have the confidence of the board of directors and be selected as Crowe Horwath’s next CEO,” shared Mellor, who is based in London. “Crowe Horwath is a network that distinguishes itself in the market by bringing smart decisions that deliver lasting value to clients, talent and the communities where we live and work.”
Mellor added, “I am committed to building on the strong foundation Kevin has created. Under Kevin’s leadership, Crowe Horwath has gained position to become the eighth largest global professional services organization and achieved five years of sustained revenue growth. He has also expanded our member footprint so that our firms can successfully serve clients wherever they choose to do business and moved the network toward becoming a more integrated global brand.”
McGrath and Mellor will work closely in the coming months as they prepare for the CEO transition. “I can think of no one better to lead Crowe Horwath,” said McGrath. “I look forward to working with David through a productive transition process and have all the confidence he will take Crowe Horwath to even greater levels of success.”
