“We found the staff working on our audit were friendly and approachable, as well as being organised and methodical with their questions, and happy to work with us on how best to request the information needed from us (Inflo, email, in person). Having staff on site for part of the audit makes it so much easier to cover the work and in a quicker time than just back and forth emails/ inflo requests (especially for the more complicated explanations) and we do value this. Particular thanks to Jess Small for running the on site team. Communication from the team lead (Jo Loughton) throughout was very good and helped us to know what was going on/ expected and there was a quick turn around for questions too. Andy Jones’s presentations to the Board and A&R committee are always well received by Trustees and give them confidence in the process. A small suggestion on the ‘to improve’ is that for the last 2 years we have had a suggestion for something to include in the audit figures – such as premises calculations shown as a donation in kind – that would have been helpful to have had raised around the audit time in November rather than at sign off in January to enable a bit more time for discussion, or in this case feedback from our institution.”

“Audit ran very smoothly and to time.”

“The auditors structure their work in an efficient manner and worked well with the internal finance team explaining further requirements clearly and updates on audit progress regularly. The inflow system works well and can give an instant snap shot of progress.”

“Been really helpful and supporting to a new CFO & Finance team.”

“Your performance, help and advice has been outstanding. Faye and Suki and their teams are an absolute credit to your company.”

“Excellent execution of FY23 audit process, including Audit Committee, precisely on the timescale originally planned, with strong communication throughout. This was important to us as a plc.”

“The audit team were efficient and responsive – thank you!. We moved payroll in August and scheduling and ensuring that the TP audit was completed in advance of this was greatly appreciated. Inflo worked well, having earlier access helped. Advice given around the trustees report content really helps. The Trustees like the format of the findings report and found the info and discussions held at the board meeting prior to approval informative and very useful. If there was any possibility of receiving the draft and final reports and also the AAR sooner that would help to minimise any stress and worries of everything being properly checked / submitted on time. Thanks to the team for your help, responsiveness and advice!.”

“Always helpful, smooth audit process.”

“Andy and Dan established a comprehensive audit plan with realistic timelines. Their communication was professional and supportive throughout, resulting in a highly collaborative process. The AFR will support us in making improvements to our practices.”

“Because I have seen the company grow and expand over the last 35 years.”

“Great team and always responsive. This year’s submission was delayed past the original timeline. This caused delays our end and we hope to improve for 2024.”

“I find working with the team very easy, there were a few communication issues this year with the SA office but in general the team were very helpful and accommodating. They had to chase for some items which was our fault not theirs! I have really enjoyed working with Andy as he explains things really well and helps advise as well as providing further information as needed.”

“Our academy has been a client of Cooper Parry’s for some years now. We are in regular contact with Glen Bott and his team throughout the year for Audit, Pension EYOC Audit, Budget Forecast, AAR etc. which has been seamless. We feel like the team knows our school and how it runs. Glen and his team are very professional and knowledgeable in their field. Our trustees/members particularly like how the Audit Findings Report is broken down and explained, especially the ‘Financial Overview’. We would highly recommend and have done in the past..”

“R&D Claim: We are now confident that our submission to the HMRC is correctly done. The additional cash will allow for investment into the latest technology (mainly cloud hosting).”

“Steve Ellis is a great asset to CP.”

“Glen Bott and the team are always supportive, extremely knowledgeable and provide excellent customer service.”
