Responsible Business

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.”

Charlotte Matthewson and Lucy Lawson said: “We chose Clive Owen as our group auditors after a thorough and competitive tender process.  A combination of experience, technical ability, personable team and value and influenced our decision.  Their local presence is also an advantage.

Having recently completed the first year audit, we are delighted with the Clive Owen team.  The timeliness of completion and their ability to grasp a new business with multiple acquisitions and group reorganisations in the year, and their pragmatic approach to the process, including the opening balance audit were excellent.  The process was a positive one.

James and his team are great to work with and we look forward to working with them going forward.”

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.
