Appointments and sources of funding

My formal appointments and related funding are as follows:

  • I am Emeritus Professor of Accounting Practice at Sheffield University Management School.  I had previously been both a full and visiting professor at Sheffield University Management School. Emeritus status is offered to some former professors who are now retired. I am unpaid in this role.
  • I direct Tax Research LLP, which is a partnership with Dr Jaqueline Murphy. The main income of the partnership is donations made to fund the work undertaken on the Tax Research UK blog and income from YouTube. The profits after the cost of running the blog and YouTube channel are split between the partners, with 90% going to me and 10% to Dr Jacqueline Murphy for her work editing and contributing to articles, posts, videos and tweets.
  • I undertake consultancy work on an ad hoc basis for other organisations through Tax Research LLP, and I also receive occasional appearance fees from media companies, which are usually modest. I am paid approximately £300 a month for writing articles for the National newspaper in Scotland: these are accounted for by Tax Research LLP.
  • I am the company secretary of the Green New Deal Group Limited, for which I am not now paid a salary.
  • Any other appointments I have are not remunerated.

Tax Research LLPs most recent accounts are available here. We choose to file much more information on public record than is required by law. A breakdown of its income for each year is included in those accounts.
