Our Story

KMB & Associates began with a simple conversation between a father and daughter. During my A-levels, I found myself unchallenged and searching for direction. When I confided in my dad about feeling unstimulated by my studies, he asked a question that changed everything: "Why don't you become an accountant?" That moment lit a spark - I knew I'd found my calling.

I pursued Business Management with Finance at University Campus Suffolk, then took on the challenge of qualifying as a Chartered Certified Accountant through self-study. Thirteen years of experience followed, including extensive training and client management roles, where I developed a deep understanding of what businesses truly need from their financial advisors.

Throughout my career, I witnessed an industry stuck in outdated practices - endless timesheets, hourly billing that shocked clients, and a focus on time rather than value. I knew there had to be a better way. In May 2024, I took a leap of faith and founded KMB & Associates with a clear mission: to provide transparent, fixed-fee accounting services that put client success first.

Starting KMB meant working late into the night after my children were asleep, balancing the demands of building a business whilst raising two young children as a mother. What began at my kitchen table soon outgrew the home environment - the needs of my growing client base and my family meant finding dedicated office space became essential.

At KMB & Associates, we've eliminated the anxiety of hourly billing. Our clients know exactly what they'll pay upfront, with no surprise invoices or time-watching. We focus on delivering results, not counting minutes. This approach has naturally attracted startups, property investors, and healthcare practices - ambitious businesses that value expertise and transparency over traditional accounting models.

What drives me every day is solving problems for our clients and guiding them through their business challenges. There's nothing more rewarding than seeing a startup flourish or helping a property investor optimise their tax position. My vision for KMB is to build a team of like-minded professionals who share this client-first philosophy, creating a firm that truly changes how accounting services are delivered.

Every client who works with KMB & Associates benefits from this journey - from the late nights that taught me dedication, to the industry frustrations that sparked innovation. We're not just your accountants; we're your partners in success, committed to providing the service we always wished existed in the market.
