Sagemont Tax, a boutique tax advisory firm specializing in maximizing the Employee Retention Credit (ERC) for businesses nationwide, is proud to announce that CEO Kenneth Dettman has been named a Person on the Move by South Florida Business Journal. The Journal is the leading source for business news, data, and networking for Broward, Miami-Dade, and Palm Beach counties.
Kenneth (“Kenny”) Dettman, CPA, is the CEO and Managing Director of Sagemont Tax. He is a pioneer in the Employee Retention Credit (ERC) industry, having successfully sourced and underwritten one of the first ERC “tax insurance” policies in the country.
“It’s an honor to be recognized by this reputable publication. As Sagemont Tax continues to grow, we are humbled by the resilience our clients have displayed in the face of COVID-19 hardships. We will continue to advocate for small and mid-sized businesses and provide them with the top-tier service they deserve,” says Dettman.
Sagemont Tax is the only ERC advisory firm with CPAs, JDs, and payroll experts from top global companies all under one roof. Together, their expertise brings decades of experience in the fields of accounting, finance, and professional services. Sagemont Tax goes beyond filing for ERC but also uses its team’s in-depth knowledge to maximize the credit for each of its clients. One of the first firms dedicated solely to the ERC, it is a fast-growing company that has a strong commitment to service, excellence, and opportunity for every business that works with them.
Kenny was previously a tax partner at Alvarez & Marsal (“A&M”) where he primarily focused on tax planning and compliance for privately held businesses. Kenny also served as the Interim Co-Head of Global Tax for A&M in 2020, managing the internal tax function across 65 offices and 5,000+ professionals in 25 countries, all while leading A&M’s task force on the ERC.
Kenny holds a bachelor’s degree in accounting and a master’s degree in both accounting and international business from the University of Florida.
Sagemont Tax is headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, with employees nationwide. To date, they have found over $700 million in credits – and counting – for the companies they work with. They are credited with bringing awareness to the ERC, once a little-known IRS benefit, and through their hard work and first-class standards, differentiating themselves from the plethora of ERC mills that exist in the industry.
