Mark has over twelve years experience specialising in business taxation and was promoted to partner in 2012. In addition to providing Business Tax advice, Mark jointly manages our business tax department.
Although he provides solutions to haysmacintyre’s varied client base, Mark’s focus is on employee intensive industries and he is heavily involved with our Hospitality and Creative, Media and Technology sector teams.
Mark’s key areas of consulting are the design and implementation of employee share options/equity award schemes, investors’ relief planning such as the Enterprise Investment Scheme (EIS) and the Seed Enterprise Investment Scheme (SEIS), corporate restructuring, company disposals and acquisitions, shareholder profit extraction including planning for Entrepreneur’s Relief and dealing with international tax matters such as international structuring for group overseas expansion and minimalising the exposure to withholding taxes.
He is actively involved with MSI Global Alliance, our worldwide alliance of legal and accounting firms and is a member of their Tax Committee which regularly meets at international conferences to discuss the latest developments, opportunities and threats in international taxation. He believes that an effective tax solution should meet both the short and longer term aims of the shareholders and their company as well as being flexible to accommodate changes as those aims evolve. Mark feels this is only achieved by providing clear, informative and pragmatic advice which identifies the taxation pitfalls and opportunities that invariably arise from each transaction.
