French Duncan accountant achieves prestigious tax accolade

Glasgow based accountant Gordon Buist has recently achieved the rare distinction of being admitted as a Fellow of the Chartered Institute of Taxation (CIOT), becoming one of a small number of individuals to have attained Fellowship in Scotland by demonstrating an outstanding technical ability that reflects a long-standing interest in tax policy.

Since qualifying, he has worked as a tax consultant, rising to manager two years later then to senior manager in 2015.

Mr Buist has also been a member of the owner-managed businesses technical committee of the CIOT since January 2017.
