Coming fresh from university with limited practice experience I was a little apprehensive about whether I was ready for my future. I can honestly say that on my first day those feelings disappeared, Thompson Wright made me feel very welcome and my team have been very supportive, creating amazing opportunities for me to learn and develop. I feel at home at Thompson Wright, and I generally come to work every morning with a smile on my face and a spring in my step.

In life we tend to regret the choices we didn’t make and the decision to move to Thompson Wright is certainly not one of them. The thought of joining a different accounting practice was daunting at first, however everyone has been so welcoming and supportive these thoughts soon went away, and I have quickly settled into my role within the team. Having the support and great working environment really does make a difference and I now enjoy coming to work.

Having moved to Thompson Wright from a far smaller practice, I feel that my career has really taken off. This is thanks to Thompson Wright’s commitment to helping each individual achieve their personal goals in terms of career progression and training requirements. The office is a nice environment to work in, as everyone is friendly and approachable and the job itself is both interesting and challenging due to the wide range of clients that we deal with.

The thought of joining a bigger accountancy practice was both exciting and daunting, however, after my first 6 months at Thompson Wright, I can safely say I have no regrets. Even with the safety measures in place to protect us from the pandemic, I felt welcomed and part of the team in no time. Moving to Thompson Wright has helped me progress and develop a lot quicker than before thanks to the wealth of knowledge and support available as well as the large variety of different client types. Joining the team is an easy decision if a nice, professional working environment with plenty of opportunities is what you are looking for.

I can’t tell you how much of a comfort it was knowing that you guys were at the end of the phone to help, and take the time to explain things.

I’ve conducted business with Richard Thompson for 20 years or so supplying professional staff to his firm. When the time came and I set up my own business it made sense to place the care of my financial affairs with Thompson Wright. It was one of my better decisions and although I’m only a small business I have been looked after very well in the last five years.
My Client Manager, Jenni Wilson, and her team are attentive, friendly and happy to take ownership of any issues that I might raise with them. Although I have an accountancy background and could handle a lot of accounting tasks myself, I find it makes good commercial sense to concentrate my time and efforts on running my business.
I recommend the firm completely. Are they the cheapest for a small business like mine? No, but you get a lot more for those extra professional fees. You get what you pay for and in my experience that’s top quality client service and peace of mind.

I have been a client of Thompson Wright for several years now. My business is very small in comparison to other Clients that they look after, however, you wouldn’t know it. The level of customer service that I receive from them makes me feel like my company is all they care about. I have never received this level of service elsewhere. Fantastic ,professional but friendly service that keeps me on the straight and narrow. I trust TW with anything financial including financial advice from a regulated professional advisor. They are also always ahead of the curve with their IT offerings, that make business life easier. I don’t have time to do most of the mundane tasks that are essential when running your own business, they take away the headache. The service is platinum standard. If you want a trustworthy confidential honest and professional company I wouldn’t look anywhere else.

I have found them to be very customer focussed, very responsive in communications even when they can’t deal with my E mail queries immediately. I have also found them able to answer all the questions I have raised when discussing my accounts, and they give me total confidence. I am thus very pleased and would have no hesitation in recommending them to others.

TW have been my accountants since 2001. They have supported me with book-keeping, accounts preparation and both personal and corporation tax advice and compliance work throughout. They have also been instrumental in carrying out a financial restructuring of the business twice, plus they dealt very effectively with a very unpleasant (and unfair) HMRC investigation. I have found their support so complete and comforting that I never thought of switching accountants when I moved to East Yorkshire a number of years ago.

We moved our business and personal accounting & Fiancial advisors to TWCA 4 years ago. In this time, Jess, Rachel and their team have helped enormously on a day to day basis with several changes within our business most recently with the purchase of the building we trade from. They were invaluable in this process and along with Sarah and Stuart (Financial Advice partner) their clear, astute, level headed advice and working relationship with our Solicitors kept the whole process from collapsing several times and saved us a lot of money in the long run.
I trust what they tell me and always feel that they have time for me no matter how trivial the question. Thank you.

After being with our advisor for many years, we made the move to Thompson Wright in Leek. In all honesty we should have made the jump sooner. In our first year alone we received advice on better, more efficient ways of record keeping; expenses that we hadn’t claimed previously; pre year end tax planning and our tax liabilities were clearly explained to us fully rather than simply an ‘amount to pay’ on the page. Rachel and the team are always on the end of the phone when we need them. All in all, we are very happy with the service to date and would recommend TW to anyone.

Bryan Enterprises Ltd T/A Security Services began life with a good deal of enthusiasm, a sympathetic Bank Manager and what has proven to be probably one of the best local accountants. That was in 1983 and years later we still maintain a personal service with the same person we met on our very first meeting, David Wright (only in those days he had more hair!). The friendly, but professional advice and services provided by David and his more than capable team has seen our company expand to the success that it is today.
It goes without saying that I would have no hesitation in recommending the services provided by Thompson Wright.

Before joining Thompson Wright Chartered Accountants six years ago, X-traweld Services Limited was with an individual accountant who was simply producing a set of accounts for us each year. We decided to move accountants upon meeting Richard Thompson and realising that Thompson Wright could offer us a whole range of services we were previously not receiving, including payroll and Independent Financial Advice.
Richard is brilliant because he not only helped us on the business side he also advised us a lot on the personal finance side, putting things in place to ensure we were getting the right tax benefits and making a secure grounding for the future.
The Client Services Bureau provided the professional help required for setting-up the Sage software and training on how to use it effectively. We find the ongoing support that we are provided with is a great help and it gives us the confidence to use Sage to it’s full potential as we are only a telephone call away should we have any problems or need any advice.

From the first moment I met Richard at TW I knew they were different. They were excited about our business and how they could help maximise its potential. This has been the case – the pro-active nature and fast response to calls and emails has been invaluable. From simple ‘hand holding’ through payroll for the first time to actively planning for the years ahead. Given that we do research and development it was an eye opener to talk to them and discuss options, whereas every other accountant just didn’t know about what benefits or breaks are out there to help SMEs
