Accountancy boss recognised among Ohio’s top executives
The managing partner of accountancy firm Dyke Yaxley LLC (DY USA) has been recognised by Smart Business Magazine as a Northeast Ohio ‘2023 Smart 50’ honoree.
Born and raised in the UK, Rob Whittall (pictured) has decades of experience living and working in both the UK and US.
Rob specialises in both inbound and outbound international taxation issues for UK and US closely held businesses and individuals.
With a combined 30 years of professional experience at Dyke Yaxley Limited, a Big Four accounting firm and a top US regional accounting firm, Rob eventually opened the Dyke Yaxley LLC US office in Cleveland, Ohio, where he is managing partner.
The Northeast Ohio Smart 50 Awards recognise the top executives of the 50 smartest companies in the Northeast Ohio region for their ability to effectively build and lead successful organisations.
The listing said: “Rob Whittall opened Dyke Yaxley after spending 30 years working at companies including a Big Four accounting firm and a top regional accounting firm.
“As managing partner, he’s guided the firm’s success for the last 12 years, actively seeking out change rather than waiting for change to adapt.
“Whittall attributes much of the company’s success to its focus on offering resources to team members to succeed, both professionally and personally."
DY helps companies navigate tax systems in the US and UK.
With operations in both countries, the firm is well positioned to understand the opportunities, challenges and rising costs facing companies operation on both sides of the Atlantic.
