Our clients are at the heart of everything we do. We aim to build long-term relationships and are personally invested in our clients’ success – in many cases we are now working with the third generation of family business owners.

Our client service standards are an area of continual focus for both partners and staff. We strive to consistently provide our clients with best-in-class service, going above and beyond at every opportunity.

We have a varied client base of businesses, not-for-profit organisations and individuals across a wide range of industries and sizes. Our corporate clients range from entrepreneurial growth businesses, through established companies with turnover in the tens of millions, to multinationals. Our charity and not-for-profit clients include religious congregations, schools, and community support organisations.

As a top 20 firm of chartered accountants, auditors and chartered tax advisors we pride ourselves on a culture which offers you an alternative, unrivalled career and life choice – and we mean it!

Our graduate programme offers you every opportunity and support to secure your exams, including paid grinds and exam leave. We also provide a work experience which gives you a high-level of interaction with clients from the start, backed up with day-to-day mentoring from partners and managers. 

With our high rate of exam success, many of our graduates progress quickly through the firm to manager and partner level.
