Partner, Tax

I have over 15 years’ experience in providing tax and executive incentivisation advice, with particular expertise in the taxation of investment funds, including carried interest and co-investment.

I advise companies and employees on setting up tax-advantaged incentivisation structures and equity plans. I also advise on sales to employee ownership trusts, management buy-outs and other company exits, and support management teams on private equity transactions.

I am a member of the income tax sub-committee of the Law Society and am frequently involved in discussions with the Government on new legislation affecting the taxation of employment income and investment funds.
