Modoras is pleased to announce the strategic appointment of Timothy Dalton as Partner and Tax Service Line Leader. This appointment strengthens the firm’s commitment to delivering integrated financial solutions across Australia, enhancing its ability to support clients in navigating an increasingly complex tax landscape.

With over 25 years of experience across the public and private sectors, Dalton brings deep expertise in complex, high-stakes tax matters, including cross-border taxation, tax disputes, and strategic risk management. Notably, Dalton has played a pivotal role in landmark cases, including one of Australia’s longest-running tax audits (FCT v Consolidated Media Holdings Ltd HCA 55).

Dalton joins Modoras following an 18-year tenure at Ernst & Young (EY), where he served as a Partner in both the United States and Australia. During his decade in the United States, he held roles in New York, Washington DC, and Silicon Valley, leading engagements for prominent Australian and US clients, including high-net-worth individuals and multinational corporate groups. Known for his strategic, outcome-driven leadership, Dalton has a proven track record of transforming tax complexity into opportunity.

He has also pioneered innovative tax technology solutions by leveraging emerging technologies and forming strategic alliances with global firms such as SAP. His work with leading organisations, including Goldman Sachs, Cisco, IBM, Microsoft, and Boeing, reflects the depth of insight he now brings to Modoras, enhancing the firm’s ability to deliver forward-thinking, integrated tax solutions.

“Modoras’ commitment to making the difference resonates deeply with my own values,” said Dalton. “I’m excited to join a team that shares my passion for helping clients achieve more, and I look forward to contributing to its continued success.”

As Tax Service Line Leader, Dalton will oversee Modoras’ national tax advisory division, collaborating closely with the accounting, wealth management, and audit teams to deliver integrated solutions that create long-term value for clients.

“Timothy’s appointment is a significant milestone for Modoras,” said Jonathan Rudman, Modoras Managing Partner. “His experience and leadership will be instrumental in helping our clients navigate the increasingly complex tax environment and secure sustainable, long-term outcomes.”

This strategic appointment supports Modoras’ long-term growth strategy and enhances its ability to meet the evolving needs of businesses, families, and high-net-worth individuals.
