Based at the Manchester office in Spinningfields, Latha will work alongside Lee Blackshaw, head of the Manchester private client team. Latha brings a wealth of experience to the team, having previously working at Forbes Dawson, KPMG and Grant Thornton.

Latha’s job role will include advising entrepreneurs, non-domiciled individuals, high net worth individuals and families on all aspects of their personal tax affairs. Jake Widdowson, who will be working as tax assistant, has also joined the expanding private client team. A further recruit is due to be announced in late February.

On the appointments, Lee Blackshaw, said: “It’s great to welcome Latha and Jake to our Manchester office.
