Ann Bristow promoted to partner within GT’s UK National Tax Office

Grant Thornton has promoted Ann Bristow to Partner in the firm’s National Tax Office.

Ann joined Grant Thornton in 2002, initially working in the Financial Planning practice. In 2006 she moved to the firm’s newly created National Tax Office where she manages a wide range of special projects for the tax practice, including on-line filing of personal tax returns.  In which HMRC’s targets for the amount of clients that would file on-line in the first year were surpassed.

Ann will take responsibility for the delivery of strategy for the tax practice, working on projects to broaden the service offering across Grant Thornton’s client base.

Ann Bristow comments, ‘I am excited about the challenge of managing strategy for the tax team. Tax is an ever evolving and challenging area and our clients are increasingly looking for innovation and efficiency in our service offering. I look forward to creating innovative solutions to meet their needs.’

Rob Withercombe, Head of Tax at Grant Thornton comments, ‘I am delighted that Ann is joining the tax partner team. Her promotion is a testament to the firm’s commitment to nurture talent from within and allow people to move into new roles readily to meet their evolving skill sets and the firm’s needs.’
