RSM Tenon has appointed Craig Simpson as Head of Tax Innovation to drive forward its entrepreneurial offering

Craig will work closely with RSM Tenon’s national and regional tax teams to develop planning capabilities with a particular focus on helping Entrepreneurs manage their tax affairs.

Craig joins RSM Tenon from Ernst & Young, where he was an Executive Director concentrating on advising entrepreneurial businesses and high net worth individuals.

Paul Belsman, Head of Tax for RSM Tenon said: ‘I am delighted to welcome Craig to RSM Tenon where he will be working with our tax team in all regions to add to our depth and range of intellectual tax solutions we offer to clients.

‘Entrepreneurs play a dominant role in economic output and employment in the UK, and Craig’s knowledge and experience will help us develop our tax offering further, and build on our already strong reputation as tax experts to entrepreneurs.

Craig Simpson said: ‘I am very pleased to join RSM Tenon where I am looking forward to working closely with our tax teams across the UK to enhance and build on our tax offering to entrepreneurs. Entrepreneurs are the lifeblood of our economy and will play a significant part in reducing unemployment. I believe that the current potential level of taxation can be a real disincentive to reinvest and grow their business. I fully support RSM Tenon’s campaign for lower taxation on these individuals, and their on-going work to raise this issue with Government.
