Personal quote / vision
Employment tax requires more than giving good advice. The advice is only a means to an end: a satisfied client. Every client is different and as a tax adviser, you should always have an eye for interests of all stakeholders involved, see the big picture and seize opportunities when they arise.
Employment tax and global mobility are all about individual, personal interests, which requires a greater degree of empathy from a tax adviser. Understanding how to bring across the message in a clear and concise way, is key to a building a good relationship with the client. And as we act in a global environment, an internationally oriented approach, respecting differences in culture and language, is indispensable.
Clients and co-workers see me as personable, proactive and pragmatic. These traits help me to be flexible to find the best approach to find a solution - as no client is the same. This is what makes my work so interesting, every day.
