  • Tax, tech and automating the grunt work

    Tax, tech and automating the grunt work
    Dec 17 2025
    In this episode of Tax, Tech and Other Stuff, Russell sits down with John McSorley, co-founder of Ilumis, a boutique tax technology firm launched in 2025. They talk entrepreneurship, workflow, and AI - covering everything from founding a lean consultancy, to building agentic AI tools that do the “grunt work” of tax. John shares lessons from his career across Big Four, in-house roles, and now as a founder, offering practical insight into what makes tax tech projects succeed (and why so many fail). If you’ve ever struggled to make workflow tools stick - or wondered how AI can actually help your team - this one’s for you.

  • Tax, tech and more than automation

    Tax, tech and more than automation
    Oct 29 2025
    In this episode of Tax, Tech and Other Stuff, Russell catches up with Nick Stobbs, Co-Founder & CEO of Syntax AI Limited, to explore how tax technology is shifting from back-office support to front-line strategy. They discuss the pressures of digital transformation, why automation alone isn’t enough, and the real barriers to adoption (spoiler: it’s rarely the tech). From client behaviours to compliance design, this conversation covers what’s changing - and what still needs to. If you’ve ever wrestled with process, platforms, or people, this episode will feel very familiar.
