Testimonials

The Zome team are friendly and proactive and have assisted us to grow the practice through each stage of development. We look forward to this continuing as we expand the practice.

We have worked with Roy Davis and his team at Zome since the founding of our practice in 2005. Zome has provided invaluable and expert accountancy and business planning throughout this time. Zome has supported the expansion of our business with assistance and advice on the systems for managing fees, time, billing and cash-flow. The team’s expertise in working with creative businesses, and in particular architectural practices, is evident with invaluable and critical insight as to how we can improve. Zome takes a friendly flexible approach. They are a delight to work with and are integral to the success and growth of our practice.

We’ve worked with Zome since 2000 when we set the practice up and their advice has been invaluable in helping us achieve profitable year on year growth. All the statutory requirements are managed really efficiently, and they’ve come up with innovative new solutions to reduce the time we spend on invoicing and time sheets – all of which frees us up to concentrate on our clients and their projects. They provide us with expert advice on topics like R&D tax credits and best practice financial management giving us an edge in challenging economic times. The bottom line is that Zome are an essential part of our team.

We had been discussing succession planning at Piercy & Co for a number of years. Our concerns were how to protect our reputation and retain our studio culture. We met Michael Holmes of Zome who introduced us to the idea of establishing an employee ownership trust (EOT). After careful consideration it was decided that this represented the best form of succession plan for the business and we engaged with Whitemoor Davis to deliver an EOT for us. Zome were an excellent partner in the establishment of our EOT, project managing the process, appointing and managing the lawyers, dealing with valuations and tax clearances plus assisting with the communications with key stakeholders. They carefully managed all the component parts and made the process as seamless as it could be for us. They are able to communicate complex issues avoiding impenetrable language or legal jargon. We have no hesitation in recommending their services to anyone who is interested in any form of succession planning but in particular for the delivery of an Employee Owned Trust.
