TAX expert Peter Kendrick is retiring from Nicklin Business Advisors after 26 years at the coalface.

He joined the company, which has branches in Worcester and Halesowen, in early 1990 following 22 years at the Inland Revenue and a short time helping to establish a new practice.

He subsequently led Nicklin’s tax department, dealing with all corporate matters and HM Revenue & Customs investigations. More recently, he has been involved in overseas inheritance tax planning and is a qualified independent financial advisor. In 2013, Mr Kendrick became a consultant to the firm, continuing to advise and manage tax clients.

David Wright, managing partner at Nicklin Business Advisors said: “We’re very grateful to Peter for all the advice and assistance he has provided to clients and colleagues over the course of the last 26 years. We all wish him a long and happy retirement.”

Mr Kendrick added: “I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my time at Nicklins, during which the firm has gone from strength to strength. I know Nicklins will continue to provide the high standards of service our clients have come to expect.”
