Get your neck and chest measured. If its just for work you can just buy the shirts and ties in a pack by these sizes. Watch out for the pins you miss when taking them out of the packet.

Generally, when you find the correct neck size, the arms are too long and the shirt is extremely baggy. A dress shirt is always long too, as it makes it easier to keep it tucked in. As they're usually pre-packed, you've have no way of knowing how good or bad the fit is until it's too late. You'l have to buy by the neck size and some also have a lenght (nape of neck to skirt of shirt). If you find them baggy, select the shorter lenght. Otherwise get your shirts made to order, but that's a bit pricey for work.

You might away with buying a shirt that fits your torso, even if the neck is too small. I have exactly the same problem, and just use the tie to keep the collar closed over - nobody notices the difference.

I'd recommend somewhere with a big selection like Arnotts, they should be able to advise you.
