Nic Rowe
My accountancy career spans more than 30 years in public practice, during which time I have gained extensive experience in a wide range of disciplines, including accounting systems, design and financial reporting for sole traders and partnerships, companies, charities and pension schemes, as well as business and personal taxation, VAT and capital gains and inheritance tax planning.
In addition to matters which they may raise with me directly, clients rely on my providing unprompted, timely advice as part of the overall service, where that advice is pertinent to their business or tax affairs. Whenever communicating with clients, I always remember that they are not (usually) fellow-accountants and I, therefore, avoid any use of jargon and endeavour to explain matters as simply as possible.
