Meet the Partners

Roger Whittaker FCCA
 

I was born in Speke Liverpool in 1958 (I know... I look young for my age).  I attended local high schools and left education at 18 with 4 “A” levels and joined Whitnalls as a trainee accountant. I became a qualified Chartered Certified Accountant in 1985 and became a Partner in 1986. I am married to Lorraine and I am an avid fan of watching and following Everton Football Club both home and away.  My wife and I enjoy travelling home and abroad and I am a Member of the National Trust.

Paul Flynn FCCA
 

I joined Whitnalls in 1986 and became a Partner in 2003.  I am the Audit Compliance Partner and am responsible for the quality of audit work throughout the Practice.  As a member of ACCA I am experienced in all aspects of accountancy and taxation services and in the development of strategies and tax planning for Limited Company clients, Partnerships and Sole Traders. I have extensive knowledge of audit and accounting compliance for owner managed businesses.

I enjoy travelling and spending time with my family and friends. I support Liverpool and am a keen golfer.

I have been a partner at Whitnalls since 2011. Having held various roles within the company I have gained a wealth of experience in dealing with the needs of owner managed businesses of varying sizes, which is reflected in my current client portfolio.  I like to work closely with clients in providing advice on all accounting, taxation and book-keeping matters, so that owners are able to concentrate on driving their businesses forward. 

In my spare time I like to play football, keep fit and go on the odd skiing holiday....oh and I am an Everton season ticket holder.
