  • I have been working with Alex and the team since I launched my business. Being new to running a business and accounts, I found that he and the team are always available to guide me through what is required. They provide an efficient and professional service. This is not an accountancy firm where you can only speak to your client manager. Alex has always been available whenever, I have wanted to speak to him.

    We use KRW for all our external reporting requirements and payroll. Adrienne in payroll is really great, she's so helpful with any questions or queries I have and she always turns payroll around really quickly and efficiently. A valuable member of the team for sure. We've had a really busy time recently and the wider team at KRW have been brilliant in helping with all our questions

    Keith and the team are exactly what we were looking for in accountants They got us out of a corner when we first joined after the mess left by our previous accountants. As a small business, our account Manager Alex is always ready to help us and responds to phone calls and emails immediately. We came to KRW through a recommendation and I would highly recommend to anyone who needs an accountancy firm that you can build a relationship with.
