We have used Clive Owen’s audit services for seven years and would recommend them to any business requiring an audit. Our main point of contact is audit partner Chris Beaumont who heads up a knowledgeable and experienced team so that every year our audit feels like a valuable part of our financial strategy rather than simply a statutory chore. Chris has always been approachable and helpful when we’ve required support on any financial matter pertaining to our accounts and their presentation. They represent top tier knowledge without the top tier bills

Stiller Warehousing & Distribution specialises in storing and distributing palletised goods. We have over 400,000 square feet of high-quality, food-grade ambient warehousing and a large distribution fleet. We also offer contract packaging and assembly services.
Recently, we expanded our contract packing operations. To refine our financial case and clarify our vision, we engaged Carl Wright and Joe Vera-Sanso from Clive Owen LLP’s grants advisory team. They helped us secure grant funding from the Durham Business Growth Programme.
Carl and Joe managed the entire bid writing process. They also supported us in discussions with the fund manager, UMi Commercial, and the Business Durham team. Their communication was excellent throughout. We secured substantial grant support, which gave us confidence to invest in our contract packaging division.
The Clive Owen team clearly has strong experience in grant applications. I highly recommend their services.

We have worked with Clive Owen LLP for 10 years. I have found them to be an invaluable partner, helping us face the complex challenges of Academy accounts. They provide challenge and support to the board and explain complex accounts clearly, showing the trust’s underlying financial performance.
The team has extensive knowledge of the academic sector and brings a wealth of experience. The Academies Accounts Direction and the Academies Trust Handbook change annually. Clive Owen LLP adds value by running seminars to explain the changes and how to implement them. They also contribute to the Kreston Academy Benchmarking Report, which we find very useful.
They have a collaborative approach and are always available to answer queries or provide support.
As leaders in their field, Chris Beaumont and his team are proactive and genuinely invested in our success. They deliver on time and within budget. The peace of mind this gives us means I would definitely recommend them.”
