Jonathan
Once a professional footballer with Chester City (he even has his own Wikipedia page!), Jonathan is now just as much on the ball in the world of accountancy with his love of tax planning and problem solving. He enjoys all the fun, friendship and fundraising that comes with being a member of the Round Table, and spending time with his wife Sian and daughters Annabelle and Eva. Tea and cake are his weaknesses!

Colin
Colin’s diverse range of interests could fill this entire website on their own, and luckily, they include accountancy. When not in financial mode, he is a keen follower of football and cycling, takes time out to watch his daughter on the netball court or can be spotted running, to work off his fondness for flapjacks and real ale. With a passion for bobble hats and socks too, he’s a man able to develop a fascination in just about anything!

Zoe
With a friendly, straight-talking nature, workaholic Zoe has every attribute needed to be the boss at a forward-thinking accountancy firm like Henry R. Davis, not least an overriding urge to help people. Zoe relishes the opportunity to lead her highly driven team and tackle challenges head on. Zoe is a member of Ladies Circle and treasurer of the local beer festival. When not working, she spends time looking after her grandson and walking her dog.

Bev
Tax is never too taxing for Bev, who takes it in her stride and is blessed with the straight-talking demeanor needed to be an insightful accountant. Away from the office, she’s a wife, a mother and a carer for her father, who returns the favour with a steady supply of flapjacks and coconut macaroons for the team. Bev is also the owner of a Bloodhound – fitting for someone doggedly determined to help her clients!
