Rawlinson & Hunter appoints five new partners

Rawlinson & Hunter LLP, the UK’s largest combined firm of chartered accountants and chartered tax advisers, has recently announced the appointment of Katharine Haggie, Hiral Kanzaria, Mark Shaw, William Watson and Yueling Wei as partners. Haggie advises families on the structuring of their business and personal interests with a focus on international aspects. She has managed significant family projects handling a broad range of queries, and works with many advisers in the UK and internationally to service the needs of clients. Following nine years of experience across general practice and professional teaching, she joined the firm in 2015 as a business tax specialist, assisting clients to structure their affairs efficiently as well as meeting the demands of associated compliance. Kanzaria joined the firm in 2010 and qualified as both a chartered accountant and chartered tax adviser. He is based in the firm’s business tax group and provides business tax advisory and compliance services to a diverse range of clients, including companies involved in technology, real estate, investment banking and art. He advises across a spectrum of corporate tax areas, including corporate structuring and restructuring, employee share schemes, tax risk management, R&D tax incentives and international taxation. Shaw is based in the firm’s trust & wealth services team and works closely with individuals and families across Europe, Asia and the US to meet their financial and operational needs. He joined the Firm in March 2015, having previously acted as a wealth strategist to family offices at Northern Trust, and within economic research at Lehman Brothers. He applies his broad investment, technology and accounting knowledge, working impartially with clients to build a family office that enables informed decision making. Watson is a corporate services specialist. His current and past portfolios have given him experience with FCA registered entities, including client money audits, as well as commodity, property and leisure companies. He also has extensive experience in undertaking multinational group audit assignments. He qualified in 2008 whilst working with a city-based firm, joining the firm in 2015. Wei is a corporate services partner providing services to both listed and unlisted clients, including charities. She has been with the firm for nearly 20 years, joining in 2003 and specialises in providing services to listed and charity audit clients, as well as private audit clients. She has extensive experience advising clients on areas such as system controls and implementation, accounting treatments for complex group restructuring and financial instruments, share options, IFRS conversion, and advising on governance and management matters for charitable and commercial clients. In addition, Salma Khan has been appointed as a director of the firm. She joined the firm in November 2020 and is a member of the Chartered Institute of Taxation (CIOT). Khan provides employment tax advisory and compliance services to a broad range of clients, including owner managed businesses and multinational groups. Graeme Privett, managing partner at Rawlinson & Hunter LLP, said: “Rawlinson & Hunter has a rich history of fostering a culture centred on progress and advancement. We are tremendously excited about these new appointments and look forward to supporting Katharine, Hiral, Mark, William, Yueling and Salma in their new roles. The partners are pleased to be stepping into the future with such a strong group of individuals who share the firm’s vision for technical excellence and client service.”
