Two directors in the Bristol office of national audit, tax and consulting firm RSM have been promoted to partner.
Joanne Webber has become a partner in the firm’s tax faculty while Hywel Pegler is now a partner in its audit faculty.
Joanne, who is CTA qualified, works in the employer solutions team specialising in employment tax and expatriate tax, and advises companies on UK domestic employment tax such as HMRC inquires, benefits and expenses and payroll.
She also supports companies with internationally mobile workforces, advising on global tax and social security compliance, tax efficient structuring of assignments and packages, tax policy design, business traveller risks and assignment cost management.
She joined RSM in November 2016 having previously worked in the Bristol offices of rival firms KPMG and EY.
Hywel, who joined RSM (then Baker Tilly) in London 10 years ago, is primarily involved in accounting, audit and assurance services to middle market clients. He has particular expertise in professional services and consumer markets and in dealing with private equity backed businesses.
He also sits on the firm’s US business services desk, having worked in its New York office.
RSM Bristol office managing partner Kate Reid said: “Joanne and Hywel have demonstrated their competence and professionalism over a number of years, and their promotions are thoroughly deserved.”
RSM employs nearly 3,500 partners and staff in 35 locations across the UK.
