      • Dec 2015 - Mar 2021

      I remained at Kreston Reeves (formerly called Spofforths) after completing my ACA qualification, progressing to become a manager. I worked with small and medium sized businesses with a particular love of helping business owners to keep an eye on the numbers whilst they look at strategy and how they want to develop. I am always willing to listen and to discuss any problems or queries that business owners and finance teams have.For those businesses I managed the preparation of required paperwork such as annual accounts, corporation tax and VAT returns as well as bespoke calculations such as forecasts, KPIs and management accounts.Online Accounting My specialism is in online accounting systems such as Xero and Quickbooks. I can use my experience and my knowledge of what's available to suggest efficient new systems for businesses' record keeping and reporting, set up the software for those systems, and then provide training and ongoing support to the teams using it.Once these improved systems are in place, financial records are more up to date which makes a big difference as they can be reliably used by the decision makers when considering their business plans.
