Offering expert advice to property investors and developers
Approach to work
I pride myself on the high level of service I provide to all of my clients. I always employ a friendly approach and I enjoy having a chat on the phone.
The best results are often obtained by having constant touch points throughout the year rather than the traditional ‘once a year review’.
I have a diverse portfolio of clients who I support with a wide range of matters, from a simple compliance service to a fully outsourced accounting function.
My main area of focus is working with SMEs, with a particular focus on owner-managed businesses and property enterprises.
My breadth of knowledge in the property sector includes both investment and development properties.
I regularly assist clients within this industry with their fundraising and exit strategies and I have successfully negotiated a number of deals on behalf of clients in this sector.
Background
I joined Grunberg & Co in October 2011 having completed my training and early career with one of the UK’s top 50 accountancy practices.
Having been promoted to Manager in April 2014, I later became a Partner in October 2017.
As the firm’s Training Partner, I am involved in the development of trainees, seeing them through their professional exams. I also head up the audit and accounts department.
