Bringing Big 4 Chartered Accountancy and extensive Executive level commercial expertise to the SME market

Kim was a Director of PDY Partners when she was first recommended to me. At a time when my start up business needed accountancy and helpful financial advice, I was looking for someone I could trust to give me the best advice. Here we are six years on.  Kim is someone I can trust. When it comes to business or financial advice I guess we’re all looking for the best advice we can get, from someone we can trust.

I’ve known Kim for over 20 years, both personally and professionally. For much of that time, she had been my trusted accountant. Therefore, as soon as I heard she was restarting her practice I came straight back, as a client.   100% trustworthy and with my interests always top of mind, I know she will look after my tax and accounting needs on time and without any stress.

Kim looks beyond the numbers and always provides valuable business advice with coaching that continues to help grow my PR business.    I find her proactive approach to tax structuring and tax planning invaluable; it allows me to minimise the tax I pay across my group whilst building my personal wealth.   She and her team at S&S are technically qualified at the highest level making her  an invaluable business partner. Additionally, Kim has become a valued friend and I would have no hesitation in recommending her and S&S .
