Andrew Dixon from Douglas-based Moore Stephens has been named Accountant of the year in Citywealth magazine's Future Leaders Under 40 Awards 2016.

Entrants are nominated through an online voting system open to the public, then shortlisted by a panel of industry judges.

The awards recognise the potential of young professionals in the wealth management sector, with their ambition, leadership qualities and communication skills among criteria.
