Our team of experts



Adnan Mahmood (Principal Advisor)

I started in accountancy in 2002 qualifying as a Chartered Certified Accountant in 2008. I was a client manager in a North London firm (which specialised in property) and then an associate partner in a West London firm. I gained a wide exposure to a range of businesses across various disciplines such as audit, financial and management accounting, tax compliance and planning and business consultancy.

The experience gained allowed me to found UHA in 2013 to fulfil the not just straightforward accounting needs but to work closely with clients, developing partnerships and creating friendly, productive working relationships. I believe it is my relationships with clients, the depth of my understanding of their businesses that makes my company special and helps my clients’ businesses manage their financial affairs well.

To ensure that UHA provides the best service for clients we use market-leading software and expertly trained support staff to meet our clients’ needs. Furthermore, we work closely with large accountancy firms including KPMG, Menzies and Harwood Hutton and can engage them for specialist tax advice, if and when required.

I am known as a very focussed person with the ability to thoroughly analyse situations, correctly identify problems and deliver solutions. I have dedicated myself to providing both sincere and thoughtful advice tailored to my clients’ needs. I have been married since 2010 and spend my spare time relaxing with my beautiful, joyous twin girls.
