I was interviewed recently on the topic of having a side hustle whilst working as an employment tax director for an accountancy firm. This episode is the outcome of that interview!
In the interview, I mainly share a slice of my story – from childhood, to tax, to side hustle – and I thought you might find this insight interesting, learn a few tips along the way, particularly around winning work, business development (BD) and hear what I’ve learnt from the podcast that has helped me with my tax career and may help you with yours too.

Their resources are where I usually start all my tax research. I’ve used it for over 7 years, and I think it’s great.
There’s detailed guidance, high-level guidance, overview guidance, case law, legislation, and more.
My personal favourite is the “in-depth” guidance.
