We were set-up in 2003 by experienced tax practitioners Mike and Joanna Longman and have established an excellent reputation with employers and candidates alike.
Mike Longman (F.C.A. C.T.A) was formerly an equity partner and Head of Tax in the Manchester office of Baker Tilly. He has over 15 years experience of building tax teams and departments and of recruiting tax specialists as an employer. He was until recently the Chairman of the Manchester branch of the Chartered Institute of Taxation, an office he held for three years.
Joanna Longman is a VAT specialist and was formerly Regional Head of VAT at one of the Big 4 firms before becoming VAT Director of a large local practice in the North West. She has been an active member of various chapters of the VAT Practitioners Group.
Louise Gibson, a tax recruitment specialist, joined us at the beginning of 2006 and has successfully spearheaded our growth in the market dealing with candidates from Tax Assistants to Manager level. Louise, who is also a Director of the company, had several years' tax recruitment experience working in a large national agency (latterly handling all their professional tax recruitment in Manchester).
In August 2007 we opened our new office in Leeds, and Gavin McBride, an ATT qualified Tax Manager, joined us as our Regional Business Manager. Gavin, who has twelve years tax experience in the profession, handles candidates across Yorkshire and the North East.
