Bio
Mike Jones
Martin (and his team) are a breath of fresh air to work with. Martin takes time to understand and support people, not just help with transactions. Being self employed or a business owner can feel like a lonely place - to be successful you need great help and support - which you will no doubt get from Martin. Martin is a great business leader, service provider and employer. I have no hesitation highly recommending Martin
🦙 Celia Gaze, MBA 🦙
Having gone through six accountants, I am so pleased to have finally found the right one in Martin. His hands-on calm reassuring approach is second to none. Always available with sound advice and guidance, Martin has steered me through the financial maze and supported me in a range of financial duties. I have absolutely no hesitation in recommending Martin for your accounting needs.

We get a fantastic service from Martin and his team at Rivington Accountants. Always professional with a great sense of humour, (for an accountant), Martin is hard working and efficient in all matters of accountancy. Saves me a fortune in tax each year, or so he tells me....
