David Willott

I work with dynamic, entrepreneurial businesses and their shareholders as they grow, build and ultimately realise value. My role is to provide a single point of contact for all my clients' tax affairs and to support them develop a tax strategy which maximises the use of tax incentives whilst ensuring commercial operations do not give rise to excess tax risk. To me, tax shouldn’t detract entrepreneurs and their business interests from the basic job of building value. I focus on giving my clients practical and pragmatic advice which is tied to their commercial goals and objectives.

My time is typically spent advising clients (across a variety of sectors, albeit with a majority in the TMT sector) on international expansion, corporate restructuring and value realisation events. My extensive experience of working on multinational tax projects has given me a strong network across Grant Thornton International to help my clients wherever their needs take them.
