Laurence Edmunds
Manager
I have been in the Agriculture and Property team at Ellacotts since May 2021, looking after a wide range of farmers, estates, landowners and agri-businesses. I am a member of the Institute of Accounting Technicians and then qualified as a Chartered Accountant enrolling as a member of the ICAEW in August 2022.
I am a manager within the Agriculture and Property team and manage a portfolio of agricultural and land-owning clients. I head up the benchmarking for the firm which we use to compare the performance of our clients on a harvest basis – a very useful tool to provide advice from. I am involved with Capital Gains Tax and Inheritance Tax planning for our clients, together with all aspects of accounts compliance work for various rural clients from sole traders to family partnerships, trusts and farming companies. I pride myself on building strong relationships with my clients to understand their business and needs in order to deliver a great service.
Away from the office, I enjoy countryside sports throughout the winter and then play a lot of golf through the summer months competing in county competitions around the country. I love to ski and we often try to get away for a week after a busy January with our friends.
