At Centricity Wealth we started working with James in 2020 needing help with year-end-reporting and to tidy up the tax for our small business. From the start, James made sure to understand where we were at with our accounting and to determine what needed to be done to tidy up our tax. Having helped us to get on top of thinks, he continued to support us with practical solutions and advice. Working with James gives us peace of mind that our accounting is taken care of and having someone so experienced in our corner, makes all the difference.
