Brian was the founder of the original Practice, Brian Kelsey & Co Ltd in 1985, which became JLK Associates Ltd on 1 April 2014. Jackie King trained with Brian, who is her father and helped build up the Practice and together they are able to offer the benefits of wisdom and experience gained over 30 years of accountancy and tax practice combined with a fresh approach and knowledge of the climate in which modern business operates.
Before setting up his own practice, Brian has in the past run his own wholesale company, and has held senior directorships in large trading and service organisations. He thus has invaluable inside knowledge of the trials and tribulations of running a business, and always uses this experience when dealing with clients.
Brian was among the first accountants to use the online filing options offered over a decade ago by the Inland Revenue and Companies House, and is a firm believer in using the latest technology to streamline documentation in order to concentrate on client consultation and support.
