Russell is a dual-qualified Chartered Taxation Surveyor and member of the Association of Taxation Technicians. Russell has over twenty years’ experience in providing advice on Capital Allowances and other investment incentives and reliefs, to clients in all sectors and ranging in scale from owner-managed businesses to multinational and listed groups and property investment funds.
Previous roles with construction consultancies and professional services firms have given Russell experience of financial modelling, due diligence, transaction structuring, expenditure analysis and claim preparation, and of dealing with HMRC and the Valuation Office. Along the way, Russell has built up substantial expertise in interpreting cost data and technical building specifications, and in leveraging this understanding to optimise the tax relief available on property and construction expenditure, helping clients to benefit from tax breaks and regeneration and sustainability incentives.
Russell particularly enjoys the odd sensation of writing about himself in the third person. Other hobbies include travel, particularly visiting industrial and transport heritage sites, while at home piles of unread novels, unopened car magazines, and unironed laundry grow ever higher.
