Jason Appel

Partner & Head of Advance Business Services

Approachable adviser to growing businesses

Jason’s story at BKL is one of growth: in his progression from trainee to senior leader, his reshaping and expansion of our business services teams, and his support for clients growing their businesses.

Jason spearheaded the coming-together of BKL’s accounts and outsourcing departments into our Advance Business Services (ABS) team, structured into pods. This ensures that clients get close support from experts who know their sector and understand their business. Specialisms across the ABS pods include property & construction, financial services, and music, media, sport and entertainment.

Jason makes sure that ABS colleagues collaborate with specialists across BKL, to drive BKL’s growth and give extensive support to ambitious clients. Clients of all sizes benefit from the latest accounting technology, advanced data analysis and instant access to a dedicated team of business-focused professionals.

As an innovator within BKL, Jason understands the value of supporting innovative businesses as they realise their potential. With a long-term focus on property, Jason has personally helped to guide the growth of many businesses in this sector. These include Fusion Group, which has grown over decades as a BKL client into a large property development group with a leading UK-wide presence in the purpose-built student accommodation (PBSA) sector.

As one of BKL’s homegrown partners, Jason champions the growing number of colleagues who have joined BKL as trainees and advanced to director level and beyond.

Away from work, Jason enjoys time with his three children and watching Chelsea FC and Saracens Rugby Club.
