HomeAboutServicesAccountsTaxPayrollVATFundingResearch & DevelopmentTax Investigation ServiceOur TeamBlogTestimonialsCareersContactPortal Select Page Our Team Stuart Hall FCCAFounder of the practice I trained in private practice with a 5 partner Accountancy firmin County Durham & Teesside, before moving into Industry. I spent ten years inFinancial Controller & Finance Director roles in the Manufacturing, Engineering& Printing industries, which gave me a much more hands on experience of runningbusinesses. All three Companies I worked for experienced significant growth during mytime with them, providing constant challenges managing Finance. Experience of Mergers,Acquisitions and Takeovers, as well as closing down non profit making divisions was allpart of the fun!My love in business is being able to save clients money, in whatever way I can. From taxplanning to advice on minimising costs and maximising profits.Outside of work I love to spend time with my wife (Michelle) and our dogs (TJ and Sookie)enjoying the outdoors, especially the Lake District. We also love to travel and explore,particularly North America & Canada. I am also a big Meat Loaf fan, often combiningthe travel to America with Meat Loaf concerts over there, having seen him perform at 7different venues in the US, with hopefully more to come.Also known as…Forrest (as in Gump) – apparently it is because attimes I am a mind boggling genius … but at other times a bit of a numpty. Matthew Gilmore ACMAI joined the practice in the summer of 2015 after working for a large manufacturing company as a management accountant. At the start of 2015 I completed my CIMA studies and became a Chartered Accountant. I also have a degree in Accounting and Finance.I always said I would never work for an accounts practice as I find it far too boring to just look at numbers all day and prefer to work with a business to move it forward. After meeting both Stuart and Abi I knew this was not a normal practice and after meeting Luke and Harry I know it is definitely not a normal practice!Outside of work I spend the majority of time with my wife Katerina and young daughter Penelope.

Andrea FloodAfter leaving school, I was employed by the Inland Revenue, as a Revenue Executive, working in Vinovium House in Bishop Auckland. I left after 10 years through voluntary redundancy, to join my husband’s family business employed as Payroll and Office manager. This continued for 20 years, however ended when we lost our entire workforce as a result of our main customer going into administration. During this time, I also owned two florist shops, which were sold to my manager when she made me an offer I couldn’t refuse. In 2014 I decided to get a ‘proper’ job and worked in the Payroll Department at Esh Construction Ltd until May 2017. Our department relocated to the Head Office earlier this year, so I decided to look for a new job closer to home.

We went touring in the Alps for 2 weeks, covering almost 3000 miles and visiting 7 countries, which was an amazing experience. We try to get out most weekends when the weather is good.

I asked Abi if she would sort the paperwork side as we were a little busy and as it isn’t our area of expertise the paperwork would be tiresome.Abi got to work and within days the whole thing was organised. The funding body asked for more info and Abi made sure it was returned as quickly as possible. Even though that meant needing to contribute which is a task in itself.We are now in a position where our newest recruit is 100% fully funded for the next 7 months. This is massive for us as we are a very small growing company and cash flow is very difficult in the early days. We can also look to start recruiting our next apprentice.The funding application was a breeze thanks to Abi and Stu and I am now left wondering why on earth they aren’t our accountants... yet!Big THANKS guys!
