I started right at the beginning back in 2017 when Mark started on his own, helping Mark to build the business – literally as my first job was to build storage racking and the desks.

I organise my team, plan work flow, provide guidance, advice, training and assistance to the team. I am also involved with accounts preparation, reconciliations, Tax returns, VAT returns and tax planning.

I’m part qualified FCA and qualified by experience. I have been working in accountancy since January 1990 in a variety of firms, both big and small. I have experience with primarily SMEs but also some large businesses covering all aspects of accounts, corporate taxes and personal taxes.

I like that Mark is focused on client service and values the staff that work here. The staff are friendly and all support one another with no “that’s not my job” attitude I have seen at other firms.

I enjoy hiking with our two dogs, a Border Collie and a Blue Heeler. I am renovating the inside of an old camper van. I am a massive geek and love playing board games with the family – we joke the only reason we had kids was to have more people to play games with! I enjoy quizzes and finding new and interesting ales – frequently combining these in pub quizzes.
