Paulina Chapman

Manager

Paulina is AAT qualified and has worked in accountancy since 2016, building her experience across three chartered practices before joining the Butterworth Barlow team.

She enjoys getting to know the people behind each business, particularly those just starting out, and supporting them in understanding their tax obligations while developing tax‑efficient plans that work for them.

Paulina was born and raised in Poland before moving to Liverpool at 19 for what was meant to be a gap year, but the city (and the people) quickly stole her heart and made her want to make it her permanent home.

When she’s not in the office, Paulina enjoys going on long walks and paddleboarding with her family.

Fun fact: To mark their fifth anniversary, Paulina and her husband recently renewed their wedding vows, having first celebrated with a small, intimate ceremony in 2020 due to the pandemic.
