Blackburn and Bury-based PM+M, the chartered accountancy, business advisory and financial planning group, has strengthened its tax team with appointment of Roger Phillips as a director.
Roger started his career at PwC in Leeds and prior to joining PM+M he was director of private client at Fairhurst where he worked for over 11 years.
His new role will see him working with a broad range of clients including entrepreneurs, high net worth individuals, owner managed businesses and landed estates.
