Emma Roberts

Emma is the Chief Executive of Creaseys, considered by many to be the leading independent firm of business and tax advisers in South East England.

Creaseys is delighted to be sponsoring the Royal Tunbridge Wells Lunch Club, which we believe will play a much needed and significant role in the commercial life of the area.

As well as helping to bring business leaders together, we hope our involvement with the club will allow us to provide the sort of insight and advice that will help fellow members grow profits, plan successions or simply batten down the hatches for a while.

Whether that is a chat over lunch or a more formal meeting back at the office is up to you.

We are well versed in topics as diverse as the intricacies of VAT; the granting of share options to employees and the reduction of Capital Gains Tax liabilities. Our accountancy services range from accounts preparation and audit to the provision of a complete internal bookkeeping and payroll service. Our tax department is one of the most highly qualified tax teams outside of the country’s largest practices.

If you can’t catch one of us at a lunch, please give us a call on 01892 546546. We’ll be delighted to help.
