Kim Cleminson-Jones

FMAAT ATT

Kim is the founder of KC Accountancy Services with over 20 years’ experience in finance and business.

Before the launch of KC Accountancy Services, Kim owned and operated a successful bookkeeping business and worked in a finance role at a high level with a multi-million-pound company.

Kim has recently completed her studies with the Association of Taxation Technicians. She has used her studies to specialise in taxation relating to Inheritance Tax and Trusts & Estates.

“Taking the leap into accountancy, came after the birth of my first child. Whilst on maternity leave, I decided to further my training, becoming a full member of AAT and Licensed Accountant in 2016.

In 2021 I became a fellow member of AAT, the highest level of membership, showcasing my dedication to accountancy and the experience I can draw on to offer the best possible service to our clients”.

Jess Ruscoe

Jess is fully AAT qualified after completing her level 4 in 2022.

Jess has been with KC Accountancy Services since 2021 and supports our clients with their bookkeeping needs and software queries.

Jess also works hard, providing support to ensure the practice and our clients remain compliant with Anti-Money Laundering regulations and manages our onboarding process for new clients.

“I wanted a career change, and the opportunity came for me to study AAT beginner level 2 at Shrewsbury college, that year and course based on bookkeeping flew and I really enjoyed it so had no hesitation signing up for the next year for AAT level 3. Level 3 was a step up from bookkeeping and more accountancy based so I did find it more difficult. However hard work pays off and I completed and passed that course as well, I was slightly hesitant to go for the final year to study at Level 4 but with encouragement and support from Kim, I am so glad I did it and passed at the end of last year!

Now qualified the jump from study to working in practice has been huge and a bit daunting but having Kim as a mentor and friend and working in such a friendly and relaxed atmosphere really does take the stress away! I hope to keep improving and gaining confidence and to start working more closely with our clients to continue to provide the best possible service we can.”
