Homegrown accountant, busy dad and keen sports fan

Jason built his interest in accountancy while working for Citibank after graduation. He trained at BKL, becoming a partner in 2015.

Jason has three children (and a wife) to prevent him sitting around twiddling his thumbs at weekends. A lifelong Chelsea FC supporter, he has since branched out into rugby, watching Saracens play whilst also managing and training his sons’ teams at Saracens Amateurs.

Watch Jason (and his son) in our launch video for Microsoft Teams at BKL, 2020:

We’d outgrown our previous accountants and were looking for more expertise in property and tax. BKL helped us grow our high-end residential projects, helping us with the legal documents and identifying tax efficient structures.
They’ve been instrumental in helping us set up our student accommodation business, in fact, they were absolutely key to securing the first site in Bristol.
