Let me introduce myself
I'm Helen Rhodes BSc FCA, an expert in small business finance
I have been qualified as a Chartered Accountant for nearly 20 years and have worked with numerous small and medium businesses.
Once ACA qualified, back in 2002, I moved from practice to industry as I was keen to learn how to be a ‘real’ accountant. I loved the experience that this brought – learning the nuts and bolts of how to make money, how to control costs, carry out business forecasting, and ultimately understand how all the functions within a business work together – sales, purchasing, marketing, IT, manufacturing, finance etc... I worked in several manufacturing firms with increasing levels of responsibility and my last role in industry was as Financial Controller at Senior Management level.
I decided to start up my own business as a general practitioner in 2010. I wanted the empowerment of self-employment, the freedom to choose my working hours and more of a connection to my local community.
I love being my own boss and I hope my passion for small business and entrepreneurship come across in how I work with my clients. I know the trials and tribulations of running your own business from first hand, and I also know how rewarding it can be.
I am very proud of how I have built up my practice from scratch. I pride myself on my professional but down-to-earth service and this is evidenced by how much my clients genuinely enjoy working with me - just take a look at the testimonials.
