About Peter
Peter Duggan is BOYNECLARKE’s Director of Finance, overseeing our Accounting Team.Originally from Westville, in Nova Scotia’s Pictou County, Peter came to Halifax to attend Saint Mary’s University, where he received his Bachelor of Commerce. He also holds an MBA from Laurentian University.
Despite opportunities elsewhere, Peter has remained rooted in Nova Scotia and active in various professional communities. He is a member of the Chartered Professional Accountants’ Association of Nova Scotia (CPANS), designation FCPA, FCGA, and served on the first board of CPANS. He served on committees of the Finance Committee and the Trust Accounts Working Group of the Nova Scotia Barristers’ Society, the Board of the Atlantic School of Theology University as Treasurer, and previously, several years on the Board of Chalice, including a term as Treasurer and chair of the Audit Committee.
After working in finance for various other entities, Peter came to BOYNECLARKE in 2000.
He was originally drawn to BOYNECLARKE by the “lack of inventory” he says with a laugh, but has stayed because of the people.
“When I first arrived here Tom Boyne prided himself on knowing everyone by name,” Peter shares. “The culture here is different from other firms.”
Peter finds joy in his role through his team and appreciates the opportunities to employ his skills and experience to help propel the firm forward.
In his free time Peter enjoys relaxing at home with his wife, and planning their next trip, wherever it may be!
