We Totally Love Calculators!
Thanks for stopping by. We hope you’re here because you’ve heard good things from one of our clients and want to see how we can help you too. Or because you’re looking for an accountant or tax expert that does things a little differently. Yes, we crunch numbers, are fluent in ‘spreadsheet’ and do all the things a good accountant does. But what makes us different, really different, is that everything we do is about you. Your business, your goals, your needs. Simple. Sound like what you were looking for?
Who we are
James Lister MAAT
Call me a geek but I love detail - and that's a good thing for an accountant, right? I also love technology and using it to make your life easier or to save you money. If you've got a query, I'm always at the end of the phone but I won't wait for you to get in touch, I'll be actively looking for ways to make you more efficient and reminding you of key dates so you can keep on top of your numbers.

I was once told that I was the opposite of what most people believe a tax accountant to be. Well if that makes me not grey, not old and not stuffy, then I'm happy with that. No matter how small your business, I'm passionate about helping you grow by giving great advice and using my network to put you in touch with others who can help. I want to know you as a person, not just about your business, as I firmly believe that's the best way to give a great service.
