Rugby Office

I enjoy providing my clients with commercial and practical advice relating to their day to day commercial, accounting and tax issues, together with addressing major strategic challenges they face from inception, mergers, acquisitions, financing to exit.

I have extensive experience in both buy-side and sell-side advice regarding MBOs, MBIs, BIMBOs, VIAMBOs, mergers, acquisition, disposals and fund raising.

I also oversee Magma's Audit & Assurance team and am actively involved in many of the larger audits.

I enjoy working closely with my clients and always take the time to listen and understand exactly what they need, before helping them to find the right solution, irrespective of any challenges.

Away from the office, I enjoy fishing, shooting, horse racing and skiing.  However, most of my time and energy is spent looking after my two very active young boys!

I work predominantly with both corporates and LLP's in an audit capacity, in addition to being the firms ATOL Reporting Accountant.

Outside of work I enjoy cycling (some would say obsessed!)

I have been a qualified Chartered Accountant for over thirty years, and enjoy building good relationships and working closely with clients, assisting them in all areas of business services including the preparation of statutory financial statements, bookkeeping and management accounts.

I am also the Money Laundering Officer for the Magma Group, and am always happy to assist anyone with queries relating to this.

Outside of work I love to travel and explore new places and, as my two children are now grown up, I have more time for reading, swimming and cooking.

I enjoy developing valued and trusted relationships with our clients, and it is always satisfying to advise them whilst they are growing and developing, and I particularly pride myself on offering a friendly pro-active service.

I have established a large number of professional contacts and I take every opportunity to add value to the Magma service by linking clients with clients and advisors to build and strengthen professional relationships.

Outside work I am the father of two daughters, and a doting grandfather.  When I get time I also enjoy playing golf and badminton, and supporting Luton Town FC through their various downs, but more recently ups!

At home, I have a wonderful young family and am a semi-professional footballer.

I enjoy working with a very efficient team of individuals, with excellent communication skills and a high level of accurate data recording.  I get a huge amount of satisfaction from helping our clients face different challenges, particularly now that payroll has become increasingly more complex.

Away from the office I enjoy spending time with my wonderful family, including two lively sons. Growing up in Manchester means I naturally support Manchester United!

I take pride in offering my clients a friendly, pro-active service. 

I specialise in working with owner managed businesses and have worked with clients in many different industry sectors, and always look to build strong, long term relationships with my clients.

Outside of work I spend a fair amount of time cycling and following a variety of sports, including cricket, rugby and football.

I have over twelve years payroll experience working within financial services, payroll software and bureau, and currently provide support and guidance to the payroll team.

Outside of work I enjoy socialising with family and friends, going to music concerts and travelling.

Qualifying as a chartered accountant in December 2016, I have continued to further my knowledge over a variety of industries, working closely and building strong relationships with sole traders through to large companies.

Outside of work I enjoy planning football and darts in the local leagues and spending time with my family.

I’ve worked with a wide variety of industry sectors and specialize in working with owner managed businesses.  I enjoy getting to know my clients and building strong business relationships, gaining valuable knowledge in order to provide them with the advice and support needed to help them run their businesses.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my husband and our son, friends and family and can sometimes be found hidden away with a good book!

Alongside supporting clients, I also lead the Magma Group, working with a team of very special people.  I strive to ensure that working with and for Magma is both fun and rewarding.

Away from the office, I enjoy football, golf and racket ball (...squash for slightly less talented people!)  However, most of my energy is spent looking after my two 'non-stop' children.

My area of specialism is advising exiting or retiring shareholders on unlocking maximum value from the sale of their business.  I enjoy managing the entire sale process from identifying and discreetly approaching strategic trade or private equity buyers, securing offers and negotiating the terms of a deal and project management of the deal through to completion.

I am also experienced in assisting clients in realising growth through targeted acquisition searches and in raising growth capital.

Prior to joining Magma, I spent over six years at national accountancy firm RSM, where I qualified as a Chartered Accountant and where I focussed exclusively on the SME market.

Outside of work I enjoy cycling, and socialising with friends.

Over the years we have built a strong reputation and are proud not only of our record in providing high quality advice, but also of developing systems to ensure that our clients receive the very highest levels of ongoing advice and service.

Away from the office I enjoy playing guitar in a covers band, walking and travel.

I hold the Diploma in Financial Planning and I am supported by a strong, highly qualified and well trained team of advisors and staff, enabling us to provide the highest level of ongoing advice and service to our clients.  We provide tailored investment solutions to meet the needs and objectives of our clients and we have the necessary depth, experience and expertise within our financial planning team to deliver this at the very highest level.

Away from the office I enjoy badminton, running and golf; although these days most of the running seems to be after my young daughters!
