Professional background

Scott joined Essex Abel in 2007 after completing a degree in Mathematics at Loughborough University and is a member of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants. As well as being a Chartered Certified Accountant, Scott is also a Chartered Tax Advisor.

Scott is the firm’s tax manager responsible for providing tax advice to all of our clients, as well managing a portfolio of business and personal clients.

Scott also forms part of the Essex Abel audit team, assisting in providing this service to our clients.

Areas of expertise

Scott is passionate about working closely with our clients in order to help them to minimise their tax liabilities and compliance obligations wherever possible. He specialises in advising clients in respect of their personal affairs, including Capital Gains and Inheritance tax planning, as well as advising clients with property portfolios.

Interests

His interests include watching football (a Derby County season ticket holder) and attending various other sporting events such as horse racing and cricket. In addition, he also enjoys playing snooker and plays pool for a local team.

Incorporation of business resulting in significant tax savings

...since 1997 and has been advised by Jason Oram and Essex Abel, since the business was commenced trading.

As a business which has experienced the issues in relation both to starting and developing a business, the advice and assistance provided by Jason Oram and the team at Essex Abel has proved invaluable.

As well as advising us on the usual compliance issues you would expect from an accountant, such as PAYE, VAT, and corporation tax issues. Jason has helped us to plan our business development in order to ensure that we maximised the tax efficiency of our commercial operations at all times. In particular Jason advised us in relation to the incorporation of our business resulting in significant tax savings, in addition to providing us with the protection of limited liability.

Tool to improve profitability and efficiency

Phil's approach was different from my previous experience with accountants, after spending some time getting to understand our business; together we set out a plan to achieve my ambitions both within the business and personally. His support has allowed my business to expand, develop, flourish and more recently, move to prestigious premises on Pride Park Derby.

Valuable service to my business

"Jason (Oram) has provided a valuable service to my business over the past few years not only through an effective accountancy and payroll service, but also providing a very useful tax planning service both on a personal and business level. I would highly recommend Jason to anyone who is just starting a business or been in business for a while and would value a more proactive approach to their accounting needs."
