“I have worked in tax for 15 years, with the past two years being at MH&Co. During my time at MH&Co, I have been exposed to a variety of tax work.

What surprised our team about Mark Holt & Co
Tax Senior
“I was surprised about the amount of advisory work we do and how proactive we are to taking ideas to clients. We’re encouraged to speak to clients rather than waiting for them to approach us. I was also surprised by the relationship directors and managers have with clients. It means our client knowledge is so great that the details are passed to us so we can support them with tax opportunities.”
Tax Senior
“Talking to friends at other firms it seems common to be another cog in their machine but here you are a person who has ambitions.”
Tax Compliance Manager
“The main surprise to me was the size of clients we have for a one office firm. It shows how the team truly have a breadth of experience and knowledge that can really help clients.”
Tax Assistant
“I was surprised as working at another accounting firm I can now see what a difference a culture that is worked on and managed for all of the team can make to your day. If you are having a bad day, no matter if it is work related or personal we can openly speak to Kerri (Practice Director). Having someone to go to who listens, cares and wants to help is refreshing.”
