Kim Swain MA (Oxon) FCA
Kim has over 45 years of experience in the accountancy profession, the majority spent in senior positions in Big 4 firms in London (PricewaterhouseCoopers and Arthur Andersen). He has also spent time in the Public Sector as Chief Accountant of the country’s largest charity (by income) where he submitted the first ever accounts prepared under the Charities SORP.
Kim’s principal specialism has been tax and during his recent time with PricewaterhouseCoopers focussed on indirect and environmental taxes (VAT, Landfill Tax and Climate Change Levy).
Outside of work, Kim is a keen football fan and has helped his local club both as Treasurer and as financial sponsor. He does his bit for the community in voluntary financial work although he has recently retired as Treasurer of his Parochial Church Council after 18 years. Where time allows, his main other interests are music (listening and playing electric guitar – loud!), physics and the language and culture of Anglo-Saxon England.
