Smith Cooper appoint new Director

Smith Cooper, Midlands based accountants and business advisors, today welcome a new Tax Director to their team, strengthening their specialist services offering across the region.

Gary has nearly 20 years of experience providing advice to a wide range of clients from tech start-ups, entrepreneurs and family owned businesses, through to FTSE listed entities. His experience is vast, and he has worked within a range of organisations, from small independents, to Top 10 and most recently in the Big 4, equipping him with in-depth practical and technical tax experience.

Of his recent appointment, Gary comments “I am delighted to be joining the progressive, dedicated tax team here at Smith Cooper, who have established an enviable reputation in the marketplace.”

David Nelson, Smith Cooper Senior Partner comments “Gary’s experience is both extensive and varied, making him the perfect fit. He will be working alongside colleagues in other specialist service lines to ensure our clients continue to receive industry leading advice.”

“Tax is undoubtedly a complex field to navigate, and in recent years, an unprecedented number of changes in UK tax and a change in HMRC’s approach have meant that it’s becoming increasingly complex for businesses and their owners. We are delighted to welcome Gary on board.”

Smith Cooper have a range of specialist tax teams on hand to provide corporate, personal and specialist VAT advice to a range of clients both in the UK and overseas, helping them maximise allowances, minimise liabilities and assure compliance.
