Managing Director of VAT UK - providing VAT and Customs support in the UK, EU and beyond.With over 21 years of experience, I provide consultancy and advisory services covering all areas of VAT and Customs. VAT UK has been established to provide a modern, practical approach and great client service.We have the support of an international network of qualified partners, meaning we can cover your VAT needs in the EU and many other countries.

I provided VAT and Customs advice and compliance services, including managing the EU VAT Compliance for several large ecommerce businesses. I also specialised in land and property VAT issues, reviewing many 5% VAT projects and providing expert witness testimony in a property VAT dispute case. I also regularly dealt with the tax authorities in the UK and Ireland, including conducting a successful ADR with HMRC.I previously worked in-house for 3 years at Clydesdale Bank Plc, with overall responsibility for the VAT affairs of Clydesdale Bank, Yorkshire Bank and other group companies. This has given me an insight into the practical side of working in-house: what works in practice and the wider implications of VAT decisions. I\'m an Associate of the Institute of Indirect Taxation and a Chartered Tax Advisor.Please get in touch if I can be of assistance with any indirect tax matters.
