Who am I?

I’m a Chartered Tax Advisor with a little over six years of experience in the accountancy industry. Before joining Claritas I worked for a couple of mid-sized, independent firms based in Stockport, with tax departments that provided both compliance and advisory services. I started my career however in my hometown of Peterborough as a graduate working for MHA MacIntyre Hudson.

When I’m at work

I try to get involved in a wide range of tax work so I’m constantly expanding my skills and expertise. More recently though my focus has tended towards the corporate side, advising on transactions and deals for entrepreneurial, family-owned business, for example. In my time working in the accountancy industry I have always worked within the SME sector, often assisting companies who are quite large, but have retained an individual culture. I also have a great deal of experience with employee share schemes, assisting clients with the implementation of EMI schemes, for example, as well as providing general advice on this area of tax.

When I’m not at work

Sport is probably my main passion, so on most evenings and at weekends you will probably find me watching whatever sport is on the TV, although my focus is on athletics, rugby and MMA. It’s fair to say I’m not as good physically as I am verbally (shouting at the TV), so I tend to stick to keeping up my fitness with simple runs generally twice a week. I’m also very big into comedy, at all levels, so if there’s an opportunity to see some live shows I’ll often be first in line to get tickets.
