The advisers businesses
and individuals turn to

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.”

Moorlands Learning Trust

Northern Star Academies Trust has worked with the Clive Owen LLP team since 2016 and have found them extremely knowledgeable and capable, and responsive to the changing agenda of the Trust and educational sector as a whole.

Their specialist experience within the education sector gives them a unique insight into the challenges we face as a multi academy trust. We really appreciate the level of support they provide, from general forward planning to the detailed preparation regarding key timings for the year end audit and expert advice on key topics.

Lastly, the annual Kreston Academies Benchmark Report, co-written by Chris Beaumont of Clive Owen LLP, is increasingly useful as a data analysis toolkit.

Clive Owen LLP supported me with my self-assessment tax return.

I was changing jobs at the time and for the first few months in my new role, I was unfortunately taxed at the wrong level. It got quite complicated and HMRC were giving me different codes weekly at one point!

I dealt with Lee Watson who was always available and happy to advise regarding any questions I had. He then did my self-assessment tax return to tie up the move of companies and help me get the correct tax code.

The flexibility to be able to contact Lee and get a reply the same day was just exceptional and gave me peace of mind and the confidence that I was following HMRC tax requirements correctly.

I would highly recommend Clive Owen LLP.  They offer excellent service, a quick response and I felt they were very reasonably priced.
