Moore Kingston Smith LLP has appointed Richard Blakeley and Thomas Dalby as two new partners.
Blakeley is a partner and Chartered Surveyor (MRICS), providing capital allowances advice to plant-intensive businesses, property owners and occupiers on all types and sizes of projects and commercial buildings.
He will launch and lead the firm’s capital allowances specialism, working with institutional funds, UK and offshore public and private companies, private high-net-worth investors, livery companies, owner occupiers and occupational tenants.
Meanwhile, Dalby is a partner in the firm’s business tax and legal teams, working with clients from founders starting their business journey to international listed groups.
A barrister and specialist in employee share schemes, he advises on all aspects of employee reward. Dalby brings vast experience working with private-equity-backed groups, both buy and sell side, and advising on management equity in buy-out vehicles.
Blakeley said: “Capital allowances is an increasingly intricate, ever-changing area. Joining this leading firm to spearhead the offering, affording clients access to Moore Kingston Smith’s collaborative tax advisory service, as well as the expertise of the wider Moore Global network, enables us to provide a solid suite of services and build a leading name in this field.”
Dalby added: “I was drawn to Moore Kingston Smith as an ambitious firm that’s broadening its specialisms and solutions for clients while investing in its people. Known for its joined-up approach, I look forward to working with the firm’s legal and tax experts to provide tailored employee reward advice that responds to clients’ business needs, and reflects changing employee expectations.”
