The advisers businesses
and individuals turn to

I have used Clive Owen LLP for quite a few years now and our relationship has developed over that time.

We are a family owned hotel that has been proudly welcoming guests to our Country House Hotel for over 15 years. My role here includes dealing with all the financial aspects of the organisation from supplier management and costings analysis to financial accounting and planning.

When we were without a management accountant for a short time, we relied on their payroll services and found them to be very efficient. We also had a member of the team insourced for a while which allowed us to maintain essential functions and recruit more purposefully in a timely manner.

Obviously, the Covid-19 pandemic has been challenging for many businesses and our industry has been particularly hard hit. If anything, our relationship with the team at Clive Owen LLP has strengthened recently as they have been incredibly responsive and supportive during this crisis. They have made it easier for us to continue to run our business whilst they have provided expertise on the new laws and guidelines.

We found the payroll team were very helpful in sorting out the new government Job Retention Scheme rules and payments.

I have found the organisation to be very cohesive when speaking to all the different departments and they all seem like thoroughly nice people. Nothing is too much trouble and they deliver their promises, with a smile!

Finally, on a more positive strategic note, Ian Jarvis is helping us to design and implement a new automated reporting system for our management accounts. We will get customised reports showing us the exact information we need to make the right financial decisions in real time. It’s a very exciting project and I can’t wait to see the results and start planning for the future.

If you are looking for a great firm of accountants and business advisers who are not only excellent at their job but really nice people to deal with, then I highly recommend Clive Owen LLP.

We were very pleased with the service provided by Eleanor at Clive Owen, who prepared an independent accountant’s report to support our grant funding claim. Eleanor expertly guided us through the process, making it very easy on our side. We would definitely consider working with Clive Owen again.

ADM Pressings is a Newcastle-based manufacturer that specialises in metal pressings, production, fabrication, assembly, painting and customised turnkey solutions.

Following an introduction by Joe Routledge, Membership Manager of the North East Automotive Alliance, Grants Partner Carl Wright and the wider Grants team worked to a tight schedule to secure six-figure grant funding for new equipment.

Jonathan Hunter, Commercial Engineer at ADM Pressings, said:
Carl was very helpful at short notice for a bid writing assignment for a grant to fund new capital equipment for our site. He and his team quickly understood our needs and guided us through the process, providing easy to understand updates and insight along the way.  Always professional and efficient, this ensured a positive outcome, meaning we were successful in securing the grant and could achieve our project timeline.

I would have no hesitation reaching out to the Clive Owen LLP team again should similar services be required.

We were delighted to work with Clive Owen LLP who prepared an Independent Accountant’s Report for our Innovate UK grant claim. 

Their professionalism and attention to detail were evident throughout the process, with the report completed and issued ahead of our planned submission deadline.

We greatly appreciated their reliability, expertise and overall excellent service, and would highly recommend Eleanor and the wider Grants team.
