TESTIMONIALS

“When I first started working with Nordens, I needed to understand how best to structure my business and to put it bluntly, I needed to understand the fundamentals of running and scaling a business. Nordens helped me to get set-up properly, provided me with sturdy foundations to build on, and provided me with ways to manage my cashflow to future proof the business. Nordens have, in all honesty become my partners, I know that I can speak to them about anything and that someone on the team will set me on the right path.”

Jamie O'Hara

As I’ve said, I speak to a lot of my influencer friends and they don’t know a lot when it comes to finances.  The knowledge I’ve acquired comes from Nordens and its educational resources. I’m lucky that Nordens have a specialist team for those within the creative and media sectors, so they have the experience needed to deal with my finances. Nordens are definitely ahead of the game and I can’t commend them enough”

Stevo The Madman

“I have been a professional actor for nearly 30 years and have worked extensively across all mediums within the industry including voice over’s, film, television and theatre. It is vitally important therefore to have a VAT expert that understands all aspects of my income and expenditure. 
 
All my accountancy needs have been dealt with extremely effectively by Maria Mousoullou who I have found to be diligent, professional and affable and I couldn’t recommend her highly enough.”

Joplin Sibtain

“Nordens have been dealing with myself & Dad for many years now. Nothing is an issue for these guys. The educated advice and support given by these guys is amazing. Communication is also top class with various departments and key people being at the end of the phone or email.

Professional. Polite. Supportive. Trustworthy. Approachable. All the key things a business needs big or small from an accountant.”
