I am a Chartered Management Accountant with 25+ years’ experience specialising in budgeting, cash flow forecasting and management information. I have a 'Big 4' Corporate Finance background alongside broad experience as a non-executive director. The latter experience covers both large, complex organisations as well as start-up and early-revenue businesses in IT, healthcare, property, brewing and education.
I enjoy running, sailing and playing golf. I am a committed Lusophile and very much enjoy the time that I spend with my family in the Lisbon area.
Prior to having my children I worked mainly in the International Banking world, working in London, Canada and New York. I love a good problem that needs to be resolved and really enjoy working with Xero.
I like nothing more than a walk with my dog and trying out new recipes to share with family and friends.

Following 20 years of product development in the food industry, I decided on a career change and studied to be a bookkeeper. I have completed the ICAEW Certificate in Finance and Business (CFAB) and am certified as a Xero adviser.
While continuing my ICAEW studies, I like to relax by tending my allotment and walking my dog.

I am a Chartered Tax Adviser and have worked in the field of expatriate and employment taxes for nearly 20 years. I trained with Deloitte and subsequently worked with a mid-tier firm in Guildford and KPMG. My clients have ranged from single individuals through to corporate clients with thousands of staff worldwide.

I love to get outside in my spare time and always have a project going on in the garden. I also enjoy spending as much time as possible playing with my young daughter.
"I had the pleasure of working with Martin at a recent workshop. He had prepared meticulously for the meeting and facilitated a focused discussion keeping well within the allotted time frame and helped the group to reach mutually beneficial decisions. He then clearly articulated next steps, following up with written feedback to capture salient points from the meeting. We would not have achieved this outcome without his input."

"Our business was growing and our old accountants just weren’t able to offer the timely and proactive advice that we needed. Paul and Martin came highly recommended so we moved to Ashton Allsop. The difference was night and day and they had an immediate impact, they spotted issues not seen before and identified allowances we should have used from HMRC. We speak regularly, we work with them through Xero and other tools they make available and everything is made clear and understandable. We were so impressed that we’ve moved our bookkeeping and payroll and they now complete our R&D applications. They provide a fantastic service and have saved us so much time and money, whilst reducing our total accounting costs. We consider them an extension of our company and couldn’t work without them."
