Kathryn Taylor

Kathryn Taylor is the founder of Taylored SSAS, a SSAS administration firm built on 30 years of experience in the industry. A SSAS is an important tax tool that runs alongside the trading company, supporting the company through its various stages of growth whilst giving the company directors control over their own personal journey — and Taylored SSAS becomes a true partner in that journey.

Kathryn started her career studying accountancy and made the switch to SSAS accounting 7 years later. That tax skill set was transferable and gave her a deep understanding of the benefits of these schemes for a company and its directors. She went on to work for the largest SSAS providers at the time, progressing to become a SSAS & SIPP consultant. She was appointed Managing Director of GPC Ltd in 2005, administering both SSAS and SIPP products, and held that post for 14 years.

Kathryn is known for her hands-on approach, meticulous compliance standards, and ability to simplify complex pension structures. She supports company directors with clarity, confidence, and genuine personal care.

A SSAS is the most tax-efficient company savings vehicle — and it's a 'must have' part of a company's journey.

Her background in tax-efficient structuring and property-led pension strategies allows her to guide clients through every stage of their SSAS journey — from initial setup and trustee documentation to property purchase, lending, and long-term scheme management, trustee governance, HMRC compliance and ongoing administration.
