James Cowper Kreston has strengthened its private client tax and rural business services team with the appointment of senior manager Penny Bowen.
Bowen joined the firm on September 7 from accountants Shaw Gibb in Oxford, where she managed its private client practice leading a team of eight.
She brings to the firm considerable strength and expertise in acting for wealthy individuals and their families, and working alongside business owners. She also brings a unique insight into the running of a farm business, having spent her life on the family's 386-acre mixed farm in Oxfordshire.
On joining the firm, she said: “James Cowper Kreston has a terrific reputation in the Thames Valley for its work with rural businesses and farming estates. It has a large and diverse client base, with seven offices across the South East. Its accountants and tax advisers are among the best and I am looking forward to developing my career further with the firm.”
Robert Holland, managing partner, said: “We are thrilled with Penny’s decision to join James Cowper Kreston. She has a terrific reputation and understanding of the issues that face our clients. She will be a real asset to the firm and we all look forward to working alongside her.”
Bowen is also an education adviser to the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (ACCA), a fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants (FCCA) and a member of the Chartered Institute of Taxation.
