You’ve probably spent hundreds, if not thousands of ££££’s, training your staff on how to produce tax returns and business tax computations, and keeping them up to date on issues such as the latest Finance Act changes; but that investment in tax training could be going to waste if you’re not checking the standard of your firm’s tax work.

Is your team putting what they’ve learned into practice or are they placing too much reliance on your tax software?

Are your clients receiving pro-active tax planning advice?

Do you have internal quality control procedures over tax work and are they being adhered to?
