Meet Our Management Team
Leigh Buchanan
(BBS, CA)
Background
Leigh joined Staples Rodway in 2002 and was appointed Manager of the Stratford office in 2004 and became an Associate in 2011.
Before obtaining her CA qualification in 1997 Leigh, along with her husband, worked full time on the family farm giving her real life experience to compliment her professional knowledge working with our farming clients. Specialist Areas
Leigh's agricultural background led her to a natural specialisation in farm accounting. Farming is very much a part of Leigh’s life, having grown up on a farm, so her accounting qualifications are backed by practical knowledge from her hands-on experience which means a real understanding of farming businesses and an ability to work with clients to achieve optimum results. Personal Interests
Leigh enjoys vintage car rallying driving her mother’s 1930 Straight 8 Dodge or a 1938 Morris 12. She is an active member of the Toastmasters club and is often called upon for MC duties for office functions. Leigh also has a passion for helping individuals develop and grow, which is essential in managing the Stratford office staff and helping clients to achieve their goals.
