Through out this period I continued to provide accountancy, taxation and business advice services to a small portfolio of clients. Effectively I continued my practice. In August 2005 I was invited by a local practising accountant trading as Thomas Kenifick & Co, to assist him in bringing client matters up to date. In February 2006 I amalgamated the respective client base into one business.As from March the new practice traded under the style “the.nmk.partnership” and provided accountancy services, payroll, bookkeeping, and VAT and tax return completion for individuals, sole traders, partnerships and Limited companies. I set up a tax planning vehicle and linked this to a high level firm of tax strategists. This facilitated access to high net worth individuals thus increasing the service provision and client base. In April 2007 I sold the nmk partnership back to TM Kenifick & co.

As a senior manager my role involved the review and analysis of business practices across and within departments and the design of a plan to tackle and improve business performance in each area. I initially addressed procedural and skills issues within the accounts departments before completing a review of the business development team. I restructured the business development department, bringing about significant changes in the operational success of the department. Based on these developments a new procedure manual was written and these improvements were applied to the company as a whole, increasing profitability and the service delivered to customers/clients.
