Q: What services do you offer?
A: We provide a broad range of services including advice on corporate finances, inheritance tax, financial planning, investment advice, business planning and evaluations.
Q: Is it important to have strong community links?
A: Absolutely. Many of our staff are from Sussex and the community plays an important role.
Q: Do you support local charities?
A: We sponsor the Chichester Christmas Lights and The Colts - a local mini rugby team. We are keen to encourage children to do more sport.
Q: What was your favourite Spofforths event in 2009?
A: I really enjoyed the Spofforths Arundel Festival of Cricket. We sponsored the festival and invited clients along. By getting involved it felt like we were giving something back to the community.
Q: What are your hopes for 2010?
I want to see an upturn for clients. This is the first recession many have seen and it’s been hard to watch them struggle.
Q: Is economic recovery on its way?
A: Yes, but we need to be realistic. The main thing is to keep the business turning over and plan for recovery.
Q: What is your advice for local businesses?
A: Businesses should focus on their core service. For us, for example, that’s client service. Others may need to continue keeping their costs low. I think it’s important to keep your loyal customers - they are your bread and butter.
Q: What do you enjoy most about your job?
A: Client contact, without a shadow of doubt: I’m definitely a people person!
