Who are we?

A firm of chartered accountants that specialise in business development. This means that we look to assist businesses in understanding how it works and to gain control of it. As a result of this we add structure to the business and help it focus on those aspects that are needed to produce growth.

To do this we employ a small number of highly motivated and capable individuals that work exceptionally well together as a team:

Chris Duckett

Brain the size of a planet. Was known to 'do enthusiasm' once last millennium but is now almost recovered. Passionate about helping clients make more money. Likes ice climbing, walking and dogs. Dislikes fluffy dice and split infinitives. Ambition: to work 36 hours per day.

Sue Watkins

Sue fixes things. Particularly broken accounting systems. Don't mess with her.

David Lloyd

Once upon a time, Dave was a bank manager. But he's nearly got over it. The only member of the team who doesn't want to be an accountant (ledger envy).

Sara Morris

Tax, what tax? And have you paid it yet? Empathy and sparkle in one stunning package.

Paul King

A man who actually likes the carrier bag of receipts. Our very own records magician.

Kath Davenport

Fastest fingers in the West. If you can say it, Kath can type it. (Official title: Logistics support officer)

Elaine Walton

A proven track record in signing schedules, Elaine never fudges her materiality.

Virtual team members

After a group reading of a book concluding that business is a stage, a number of "characters" have appeared:

The Editor

Of the Newsletter. A man who has to wade through treacle on a daily basis to find silver linings and missing commas.

Ms Whiplash

The doyen of solicitors and bank managers. Famed for her uncompromising attitude: "you've earned the money; now pay the tax". Read "The Whiplash Chronicles" for more information.

The Boyscout

Always prepared. Always organised.

The Bullybroad

Never misses a deadline. Even if it kills you.

Sparkle

Ex-Revenue. Infected with their new "empathy virus".
