Private Client Services

Executive summary

I specialise in private client work, with a particular focus on entrepreneurs. My client base includes ultra-high-net-worth families (and their family offices), primarily based in the UK but with significant international interests.

Over the years, I have become the lead adviser to many high-profile Tech entrepreneurs, working closely with both clients and their wider advisory teams to structure business interests and manage the family and private wealth that arises from liquidity events and profit extraction.

From 2014 to 2019, I served as Chairman of the International Private Client Group at BDO International. I continue to travel regularly to the world’s major financial centres to meet with BDO colleagues and external contacts, sharing knowledge and developing business at a global level.

I have over 25 years’ tax experience, have been with BDO since June 2000, and am a member of the Chartered Institute of Taxation. I am recognised as a leading adviser to private clients within the industry, as reflected in various awards and accolades.
