Dean McCormack

Dean McCormack is an Accounts Associate, primarily based in our Southend office. His main focus is to understand his clients’ aims and then work with them to achieve these.

Dean has held various different positions since he joined the firm in 2008, which has given him a wide range of experience helping clients to overcome obstacles and take advantage of opportunities. These roles have allowed him to gain significant experience in:

• Ensuring clients remain compliant with the minimum amount of stress
• Ensuring client management information systems are providing accurate, informative reports and helping clients to interpret the results effectively
• Working with clients to understand any system deficiencies and providing solutions to correct these
• Working with clients to implement efficient remuneration structures and mitigate Corporation Tax liabilities
• Building holistic and pro-active development plans and roadmaps with clients to achieve their specific goals.

Dean works very hard to ensure that he understands each of his clients’ individual aspirations, any obstacles that may be preventing them from achieving these, and then working alongside key individuals to create a defined and clear plan to work towards them. Dean truly thrives on helping others to achieve their goals, and takes great joy in seeing his clients realise their ambitions.

A key element of the service Dean provides is to really ‘get under the bonnet’ of each client, in order to build trust that he will deliver on each commitment he makes. Clients have commented on Dean’s ability to translate the often bewildering world of accounting into easier to understand language for business owners and managers, allowing them to make more informed decisions.

Dean is a firm believer in the notion that accountants should be more than ‘just the numbers’ and is committed to being a trusted adviser to his clients, aiming to help them with any query they may have, either directly, via his colleagues, or his wider network of contacts built during his career.

Outside of the office, Dean is a keen sportsperson, watching almost any sport and trying his hand at a few - mainly football and golf. Dean also enjoys music and still takes great pleasure in attending a gig or discovering new music. Dean also loves travelling and discovering new places around the globe, and has been lucky enough to visit all but one of the world’s continents.
