After several years working for an international telecommunications firm, managing trade shows, advertising campaigns and PR, Amanda jumped off the corporate ladder to start a family. Once her daughter started school, Amanda went on to further train as an accountant, being awarded an AAT Accounting Technician qualification.

Amanda is passionate about using her soft skills, breadth of experience and accountancy training to support hard working small business owners and entrepreneurs, releasing them to pursue their business objectives whilst she keeps the back office in order.
