UK-based accountancy and advisory practice PKF Smith Cooper has expanded its senior tax team in the West Midlands with the appointment of Beverley Scott as corporate tax partner.
Scott will collaborate with the existing tax leadership to support the company’s plans to improve its corporate tax practice and broaden its capabilities across the region.
PKF Smith Cooper managing partner James Bagley said: “Bev’s appointment as tax partner is a major milestone for the firm as we push forward with our ambitious five-year plan to double in size.
“Her extensive experience and keen understanding of the Midlands market make her an excellent addition to our leadership team.”
Scott has more than 20 years’ experience advising owner-managed companies, working with businesses based in the Midlands as well as elsewhere in the UK.
She joins PKF Smith Cooper after six and a half years at another Midlands-based organisation, following earlier positions at two of the ‘Big Four’ companies.
Her career began at a boutique advisory practice, where she worked with a wide range of clients from smaller enterprises to large international groups.
Commenting on her appointment, Scott said: “I am delighted to be joining PKF Smith Cooper at such an exciting time in the firm’s growth.
“With its strong and well-established presence in the wider Midlands region, I am looking forward to working alongside the leadership team to help further develop and strengthen the firm’s position across the West Midlands region, as well as further enhance the corporate tax offering across the firm.”
Last November, Smith Cooper appointed Lucinda Matkin as the new director of its Business Recovery and Restructuring unit, expanding its operations in the East Midlands.
