Management accounts provide structured and timely financial information that helps you understand performance, control cashflow and plan confidently for growth. Whilst statutory accounts report what has already happened, management accounts give you forward-looking insight to enable smarter commercial and strategic decisions.

Management Accounts Services for Growing Businesses
What Are Management Accounts?
Management accounts are regular internal reports that bring clarity to your financial position and support more confident decision-making. They typically include detailed profit and loss analysis, balance sheet insight, cashflow reporting, KPI tracking and variance analysis against budget or forecast, alongside clear performance commentary. By turning financial data into meaningful insight, they provide a strong foundation for effective planning and forward-looking financial management.
Our Management Accounts services are designed to give you clear, relevant insight into your business that is tailored to your size, structure, and sector. We provide structured monthly or quarterly reports, delivered consistently so you always have an accurate view of performance.
Beyond the numbers, we work with you to develop and track the key performance indicators that truly drive your business, rather than relying on generic accounting measures. Through detailed variance and trend analysis, we help you understand why results differ from expectations and highlight emerging risks or opportunities early.
Crucially, we combine this with clear performance commentary and strategic insight, ensuring the data is translated into meaningful guidance that supports confident, informed decision-making.
Tiffin Sandwiches started in 2000 as a breakfast sandwich shop and became a small local supplier of pre-packed sandwiches to shops and forecourts etc. Over the years we grew into a £multi-million turnover business until we reached the threshold where our annual accounts needed to be audited. Clive Owen were recommended to us.
The first time we were audited came as a shock because of the new depth and detail within our accounts which we now had to provide. Clive Owen understood that the transition is difficult for a first audit and explained to us exactly why they had to do what they were doing. Further, they suggested new procedures which would hopefully make it less of a trauma in the years going forward. I am happy to say that we now just take the audit in “our stride”
The real benefit came after our first audit when we received some fantastic financial advice from Clive Owen based on what they had learned about our business by conducting the thorough audit. This advice has continued to this day and I can say with 100% confidence that without it we would not have continued to expand in the way we have.
Based on our experience I would not hesitate to recommend Clive Owen to any business large or small. All the way through the COVID crisis they have kept us totally up to date on the all the continual changes made by the Government/HMRC to help us plan and make decisions accordingly.

Fusion Joinery are a bespoke joinery solutions business based in the North East of England, manufacturing a range of made-to-order timber products for commercial, residential and domestic projects. We have grown strongly in recent years, but have relied upon external equipment hire to deliver larger projects. We have the opportunity to secure further large contract work, however in order to be more competitive we identified the need to own our own crane. Whilst we were able to source a suitable crane, the investment required was significant and we needed some financial support.
The grants advisory team at Clive Owen supported us in securing a substantial grant from the Business Growth Fund capital grant scheme. The Clive Owen team took the bid writing process off our hands and delivered a very quick turnaround, allowing us to access the funding just before the scheme closed. We have now been able to acquire the crane and have pressed on with our growth plans which include new contracts and new employment.
I strongly suggest that businesses seeking grant support consider utilising the expertise of Carl Wright and his team at Clive Owen LLP.

Since that date they have assisted proactively with corporate and personal tax matters. In addition they have provided strategic direction on various matters including directors’ loan accounts and shareholdings.
