Mike Devine
The founder
I joined the Inland Revenue at the age of 16 then moved on to professional firms of accountants where I obtained my tax qualification, ATT. Throughout these years I have primarily dealt with various personal and corporate tax matters. In the 1990's I became freelance and started my own business. My vision for the business was to be able to provide a future for my children and now 25 years on I have 3 of them as part of the work force. At Tax Data Ltd we grow our own employees!
My current role in the business is to review all the accounts and returns and deal with miscellaneous and tax planning matters.
Sandra Devine
Co founder
I am a Fellow of the International Association of Bookkeepers and have worked in the industry over 30 years. After starting a family, I wanted a job where I could work flexible hours allowing me to spend time with my young children (at the time) and to earn a living. Originally trading as Sandra’s Office Services, then as Devine & Co I have years of experience of bookkeeping, VAT and payroll. Having dealt with businesses for this length of time I can offer support and advice.
