I started at Knights in August 1993, having previously worked for a local accountant. I have always worked in the Tax, Trust & Private Client Department and I am now one of the trust managers within the department. Since starting at Knights I have completed both accountancy and legal qualifications together with the Society of Trust and Estate Practitioners Foundation Certificate. Generally, I specialise in the overseeing of the trusts including the administration and monitoring of the assets held within them. This includes reporting to the trustees, beneficiaries and H M Revenue & Customs. I also assist in the preparation of estate accounts and all aspects of trust taxation.
My interests outside of the office include reading, cooking and gardening. When I say “outside of the office” I literally mean this as I look after the small area of garden outside my office window helped by the many plant donations I receive from other members of staff.
