London, UK – Spotlight Reporting has announced Graeme Morrison, Director of Northern Accountants, as its latest Spotlight Champion and Power User, joining an international network of advisors recognised for using Spotlight tools to help clients navigate an increasingly complex and fast-changing business environment.
With the addition of Graeme, the Spotlight Champion network has expanded to include Diane de Garis (UK), Andrew Mattner (AU), and Peter Harris (NZ).
Spotlight Reporting for UK Accounting Firms: Supporting Advisory and Faster Decision-Making
Northern Accountants has been using Spotlight Reporting since 2022. In the current economic climate, Graeme and his team rely on Spotlight Dashboards, Spotlight Forecasting, and Spotlight Reporting to surface clear financial insights that support timely, well-informed decision-making. As UK businesses contend with subdued growth, regulatory change, and shifting market conditions, the platform enables the team to adapt advice quickly and ensure client conversations remain grounded in up-to-date financial reality.
This approach has proven particularly valuable for clients affected by regulatory developments and economic policy changes, where confidence, clarity, and speed of response are essential. By using Spotlight, Graeme and his team are able to keep strategic discussions focused and help clients make decisions with greater certainty in an environment where conditions can change quickly and unevenly across sectors.
“We are operating in a period where business conditions are far less predictable than they were even a few years ago,” Graeme said. “For some clients, assumptions that held true last quarter no longer apply. We use Spotlight because it helps us turn financial data into clear, actionable insight, allowing clients to plan, adjust, and move forward without taking on unnecessary risk.”
Spotlight Reporting’s Role Across Advisory in Today’s UK Economy
Spotlight Reporting CEO Richard Francis FCA placed the Spotlight Champion network in the context of the broader UK economic landscape.
“Many UK businesses are currently operating under sustained pressure, with modest growth, ongoing policy uncertainty, and cautious investment decisions shaping the market,” Francis said. “Advisors like Graeme play a critical role in helping clients interpret their numbers, stay resilient, and respond thoughtfully to change. Spotlight was built to support exactly this kind of advisory work, and in today’s environment, that role has never been more important.”
As a Spotlight Champion, Graeme plans to share insights from his team’s experience to help other advisory firms adopt the tools and practices needed to operate effectively in a changing economic landscape.
Further Spotlight Champion announcements will be made in the coming months.
