Bio: Whittaker & Co was set up by, ex-WRAC and Royal Signals, Anna Cooperwhite to be specialist accountants to the security industry.
The company grew out of necessity. Anna’s husband John, left the armed forces after an 18 year career, which included service in the Coldstream Guards, the Welsh Guards, 7 Parachute Regiment and in the Gurkha regiment in Brunei.
John started a career as a security contractor in Iraq, and quickly found that the role was well paid; however, none of his colleagues knew what their tax responsibilities were. Anna started to assist John’s colleagues in completing their tax returns, and Whittaker & Co was born!
Whilst John remained working in Iraq for 9 years, Whittaker & Co client base grew from strength to strength as did our reputation for no-nonsense advice and our great customer service. Steph Davies joined Anna to manage clients working abroad and assisting them in being tax free.
Since 2004, Whittaker & Co has now grown in to a team of tax advisors, accountants and account managers.

Bio: The Operatives Group was created to “close the gap” between the Operative On-The-Ground The Tasking Company / Provider. The Operatives Group’s Mission is to explore, enhance and create Services & Solutions for Security & Investigations Operatives. The Operatives Group’s first Service & Solution, The Operatives Group App, addresses the various on-the-ground Logging & Reporting issues experienced by today’s Modern Operatives. The Operatives Group App, built for active operatives, by active operatives, was conceived from the need to eliminate the “missing link” between the operative on the ground and the operations manager. Whether it be compiling reports, showcasing skills & capabilities, or sourcing and being selected for upcoming tasks, The Operatives Group App will have it covered. With more versions in the making, the “basic” version focuses heavily on that age old problem for the operative on the ground, who having fulfilled their role within the given task period, then has to compile a detailed, professional report for the operations manager in their own, unpaid time, restricting the operatives’ precious family time or availability for upcoming tasks. The Operatives Group App allows the operative to log relevant activities in real time in an intuitive and efficient manner on the ground and compile their report. Automatically! The Operatives Group App – Built for the Modern Operative’s Toolbox!
