Redcliffe's International Tax Principles and Pillar 2 Training program is led by a highly accomplished tax professional and Director of a specialist consultancy firm focused on taxation, share schemes, and reward strategies. He has developed tailored share scheme services for SMEs and provides high-level advisory services to FTSE-listed companies on communication and taxation matters. His expertise covers the full spectrum of direct taxation, with a particular focus on employment taxation and transfer pricing—two areas that present complex, conceptual challenges.

Our highly skilled trainer is uniquely equipped to provide in-depth insights into regulatory and legislative nuances of international taxation, drawing from years of hands-on experience. It is this invaluable expertise that informs his comprehensive international tax training courses.

With almost nine years at Henderson leading the Share Schemes team, he gained extensive experience in international taxation and earned a CIPD Level 7 Masters. Previously, at AMP, he helped develop one of the UK’s first Share Incentive Plans (SIP), which led to HMRC consulting him on strategies for broader adoption.

Throughout his 16-year career in taxation, he has held senior positions at three of the 'Big Four' firms, ultimately becoming a Senior Manager at Deloitte. His expertise spans profit-related pay, expatriate tax, share schemes, reward management, US taxation, and corporate tax.

When our trainer is not conducting international tax training, he enjoys cricket, history, skiing, tennis, and gardening. His passion for history extends to giving lectures, allowing him to keep his presentation skills sharp, current, and engaging.
