LBMC announces the addition of four new leadership hires and five internal promotions across its divisions, including Eric Myers in Chattanooga and Knoxville. Among these, seven are shareholders. These appointments reflect LBMC’s strategic expansion in response to increasing demand in core industries, including high-net-worth, healthcare, manufacturing, and technology as well as growth in the Client Advisory and Accounting Services space, said officials.

Mr. Myers is a shareholder in Tax in Knoxville and Chattanooga. He joins LBMC with more than 20 years of experience in tax planning and compliance, serving manufacturing and distribution companies, private equity-owned portfolio companies, and closely held businesses across industries.

Several of the newly appointed leaders are returning to LBMC after pursuing external opportunities. These promotions and additions further align with LBMC’s vision to strengthen its position as an industry leader, bolstered by recent acquisitions and a continued focus on innovation and client service, said officials.

"At the heart of our exceptional client experience is our team," said Jim Meade, CEO and managing shareholder of LBMC. "Welcoming these shareholders and managing directors—including seven well-deserved promotions and four boomerangs returning to LBMC—reflects our commitment to fostering a workplace where our people thrive, grow, and innovate. Leadership continues to evolve, and we remain dedicated to investing in our people and preparing for the future today. These leaders span markets, service lines, and industry specialties further deepening our bench as we continue to build a comprehensive firm of the future."

The leadership announcements follow LBMC’s recent expansion into the Memphis market, bringing the firm to seven locations, 900+ team members in 30 states, serving more than 11,000 clients across the nation.
