I work with owner managed businesses advising them on financial and strategic matters with a view to improving profitability, tax planning, managing growth and succession, and ensuring they have accurate and timely financial information to support decision making.Business is about people and I like to get to know my clients so that I understand what really matters to them and what they want to achieve. Their objectives and priorities are often not just financial. I work with my clients to find the best solution, helping them to understand their options and the possible implications - financial and otherwise - of their decisions.My experience has been gained over 30+ years in practice, working primarily with SME clients. I trained and qualified with the Midlands office of an international firm before moving to regional practices in Yorkshire and then the North West. Following 5 years specializing in forensic work, I joined SB&P in 2003 to develop our forensic services and I undertake advisory and Expert Witness appointments. My forensic experience includes commercial disputes, matrimonial cases, business interruption/loss of profit claims, personal injury and fraud.I am also a Statutory Auditor and have expertise in the audit of not for profit entities including Pension Schemes, Charities and Credit Unions.SB&P is an expanding firm based in Merseyside, but we don’t like to refer to ourselves as just accountants. It goes without saying that we can look after the numbers and compliance, but what we do goes far beyond accountancy. We like to build real relationships with our clients so that we can give them real advice on what matters to them. Have a look at our website - www.sb-p.co.uk - to see what else we can do. Our people can help make the difference, so why don’t you connect with me here on LinkedIn, give one of us a call or send an email to hello@sb-p.co.uk?
