The growing TaxAssist Accountants Network now covers 248 areas all around the UK from 409 shops and offices.

Following an online onboarding journey, and completion of his virtual Initial Training Course, Robert Miles will shortly be launching his own TaxAssist Accountants practice in Barnstaple.

Robert is a CIMA-qualified accountant with a BA in Accounting and Finance. He has a background in distribution, manufacturing, warehousing, margin and cost review, where he worked his way up to Head of Finance.

Having lived in Devon all his life, he is passionate about building a practice in and supporting his local community.

“I have worked with small, family and growing businesses most of my working career, and have extensive experience of introducing robust procedures, managing, developing and mentoring teams and driving growth and efficiencies,” explained Robert. “I have a strong work ethic and am really looking forward to meeting with and assisting businesses in and around Barnstaple, and ensuring they receive the very best tax, accounting and advisory service.”

Seth Brown, UK Recruitment Manager, said: “From all of us at TaxAssist Accountants, I would like to extend a warm welcome to Robert, who I know is looking forward to getting started.

“As our network continues to develop around the UK, I’m really keen to speak to accountants or finance professionals, from industry or practice, about the potential that a franchise with TaxAssist Accountants offers. Our accountants continue to be very busy, and client demand is increasing, as business owners look for local, accessible accountants that can provide them with the advice and support they need to help decision making, implement change and plan for the future.

“While the initial training course is running virtually, TaxAssist Accountants is pleased to offer a cash back deal to new franchisees of £4,000 on the franchise fee.”

If you share a passion to help your local businesses, a TaxAssist franchise can provide the systems and support you need to be successful. Regular Virtual Discovery Days are being held, where you can find out more about the technical, marketing and business development support on offer.
