Where talent, opportunity and ambition thrive

As a fellow business in the professional services sector, we really valued Clive Owen LLP’s clear advice and proactive approach throughout the process.

Their support gave us the confidence to go for the Business Growth Fund grant funding and invest in a new, modern office, which will help to support our next phase of growth.

We felt supported and well guided from start to finish, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Carl and the team.

At Syselek, we develop innovative technology and toolchain solutions for transport decarbonisation and automation. We have been very fortunate to receive grant funding from Innovate UK. This has helped develop several of our innovative solutions.
One recent project was Fleet AI Recharging (“FAIR”). It explored new AI-based algorithms to accurately predict the energy consumption of electric HGVs. This enables live decisions about smart charging. These decisions help reduce operating costs and accelerate decarbonisation of the freight and logistics sector.
We began working with Clive Owen LLP two years ago. Since then, they have supported all our grant funding audit requirements. Their approach to the audit process is very smooth and intuitive. Their guidance has been easy to follow. Their quick responses to our questions have ensured our full compliance in all grant funding claims. This has enabled us to close out all our projects promptly.
We have been really impressed with the support from the grants team over these last two years. We are fully confident in their support going forward. We would certainly recommend Clive Owen’s grants team to anyone seeking Innovate UK grant funding audit services.

PCE is headquartered in Teesside and has branches throughout Europe.  As the Group Finance Director, it is vital that I can rely on my advisors to help navigate the compliance and taxation issues that running a European group entails.  The business has used Clive Owen for nearly twenty five years and have worked specifically with Kevin Shotton for the last five.

Kevin and his team perform the full Group audit including our overseas subsidiaries. Further, as well as giving significant input on our UK taxation position, I can and do call on the team’s expertise to help with transfer pricing and other issues associated with running a multinational business.  I genuinely appreciate the time and effort that Kevin puts into the relationship; I know during our meetings that he will have considered issues from a number of different angles meaning he is able to present us with options that we might not otherwise have thought of.

This breadth of knowledge and ownership of the relationship mean that I cannot recommend him highly enough.

“Clive Owen was recommended to me by a friend and business associate. Naturally, you are hesitant when it comes to accounting, finance and taxation.  Especially for established businesses with long-standing service providers. However, the transition to Clive Owen has been the most Enlightening and beneficial decision I’ve made as a business owner.  I cannot be more appreciative to every team member within the organisation I’ve dealt with. Looking forward to a long-standing partnership”.
