MARK WILLIS

Mark has worked in practice since 1990 and qualified as an insolvency practitioner in 1996.  He set up in practice 2005 in Tunbridge Wells and has since dealt with businesses of all types and sizes.  His main focus is dealing with owner managed businesses and because he does not undertake tax, audit or accountancy work he works closely with their own advisers to facilitate the best outcome for all stakeholders.

In particular Mark has undertaken a large amount of solvent liquidation work, working with the businesses own accountants to enable the owners to obtain entrepreneurs relief.
He has also dealt with a number of well known local businesses in the retail sector as well as companies in the construction, property and services sector.
Outside of work Mark enjoys spending time with his wife and three children. He also enjoys playing golf, squash, badminton and going swimming with his family.
Mark is a Leeds United supporter having in his youth been the proud wearer of the Allan Clarke No 8 kit from 1972.  Since secondary school rugby has been his game and as each year goes by he still believes there is one more season left in his legs!
