Amanda Waterhouse

What is your role at BHP?
I joined BHP as a tax partner in 2012, having previously been a tax partner in a national firm. I work with clients who are passionate about their businesses, often embarking on their growth journey with them and giving them tax advice in respect of tax-efficient business structures, employee incentivisation including equity participation, remuneration planning, planning for a smooth exit from the business whether this is a sale to a third party, a management buyout or a sale to an employee ownership trust, and family wealth preservation such as minimising inheritance tax exposure.

I also work with individuals who wish to have a proactive relationship regarding their personal tax affairs, seeking solutions to achieve their private objectives. I work closely with various teams, including corporate finance, financial planning, digital finance, commercial finance, and audit.

What are you most passionate about?
My son.

What keeps you motivated?
Being able to think outside the box to provide innovative solutions tailored to my client's requirements, knowing that every day will be different, and I will get to meet many inspirational people along the way.
