On the Books: Meet the new leader of Intuit's accountant team—Introducing Simon Williams

Meet Simon Williams, the new vice president of the Accountant Segment at Intuit. 


In this episode of On the Books, Simon shares his experience at Adobe and the BBC (he is originally from Wales, as you will hear), setting up partner groups, and navigating the first wave of AI adoption. Simon talks about his vision for strengthening the partnership between Intuit and accountants, emphasizing a customer-first approach and transparency, especially during times of significant industry transformation.


"I'm still fairly new into the role, and so some of this is still being built out, but certainly on the way in, everyone I spoke to across the organization without fail said accountants are the most critical partner for the business.”


Simon and host Jessica McCracken discuss his view on feedback from the accounting community and repairing reputational damage with transparency.
