Jan McLean has joined Larking Gowen as a Director in the specialist medical team.
She will be working from the Ipswich and Norwich offices, supporting the teams in both locations and further strengthening the firm’s offering across East Anglia.
Jan has more than 30 years’ accountancy experience. She qualified as a chartered accountant in 1997, and 2010, she started specialising in the healthcare and medical sector. During this time, her clients were GP practices, hospital consultants, locums, pharmacies, limited companies and other healthcare related clients. Within the medical sector, she has a specialisation in NHS pensions.
Jan said: “I joined Larking Gowen because I wanted to stay in medical specialisation and use the skills I’ve acquired to continue supporting NHS staff and those in private practice. Apart from understanding the intricacies of GP finance, I particularly have a wealth of knowledge in the NHS pension scheme and the associated tax implications, which is a complicated area.
“I knew many of the Larking Gowen healthcare partners from the AISMA annual conferences. Their business is highly respected in the medical sector which was a huge positive for me. The whole team have been friendly and supportive in welcoming me to the firm.”
Andrew Burwood, Partner and head of the medical team at Larking Gowen, said: “We are delighted to welcome Jan to our team. She brings a wealth of experience having looked after many clients within the NHS and private healthcare sectors over several years, and we look forward to her sharing her knowledge and expert guidance with both our clients and our team.
“Jan is a perfect fit for Larking Gowen and our clients, and she strengthens our commitment to remaining an independent firm with a real focus on the community we are so proud to be a part of.”
