Paul Belsman takes over from Andrew Hubbard
RSM Tenon has named Paul Belsman as its new head of tax, the position he previously held at Vantis, which sold parts of its business to Tenon in June this year.
The company’s outgoing head of tax, Andrew Hubbard has been appointed as chairman of the tax team, responsible for tax policy and technical standards.
Belsman said: "The RSM Tenon tax team is recognised as one of the leading tax practices in the UK as a result of its dedicated expertise on offer.
"I very much look forward to working very closely with Andrew Hubbard to drive forward the tax team and ensuring tax is at the heart of all our clients’ businesses."
Andy Raynor, chief executive of RSM Tenon added: "Paul’s appointment comes at a very important time. Companies and individuals are starting to feel the effects of new legislation including the higher rate of tax, new tax avoidance procedures and are expecting to have a harder time in the short term following the Spending Review and the increase in VAT to 20%.
"Paul’s skills very much complement those existing within RSM Tenon, ideally positioning us to help companies and entrepreneurs with their tax affairs at a time when there are a lot of questions to be answered."
