“We had got to the stage where we had outgrown our previous accountants. Our group of businesses were growing and I needed accountants who could offer more than creating a set of accounts. I was looking for a firm I could partner with and who could also provide strategic support and advice.

I was recommended to Pentlands because they understand the demands and time pressures that come with growing a group of businesses. Their approach is very different to other accountants; it’s not transactional. They are understanding, proactive, responsive and bring knowledgeable expertise.

It gives me confidence knowing that I can ask any questions and I will gain valuable insights and advice from Elinor and James. They always respond promptly and in a way that I understand as a non-accountant.

Their strategic input has been invaluable, James has supported us in setting up our Xero accounting software, establishing rules and management codes that enable us to create consistent reporting and management accounts across the group. Pentlands have also helped us to consolidate all property related costs and revaluation of assets. Enabling us to produce reliable and trusted information to support our financial planning.

I have also gained a lot from our regular management meetings with Pentlands. They provide an opportunity to review our strategy and figures to ensure the group is on track. Working with Pentlands is an enjoyable experience. I find real value in having a close working relationship with them as our accountants and advisers, that is something that was previously lacking.”
