Jane Roche MICB

When I left school my passion was travel and problem solving. I was a bit of a free spirit so travel always came first and I have no regrets, I’ve seen some wonderful places.

 

In my late 20’s I got a job with a finance company in the city working with brokers. I really enjoyed it and it was then I started to consider studying with AAT to make a proper career out of it. My passion for travel got in the way of this for a while but once I was ready to lay down my roots I studied with both AAT and the ICB and got my qualifications.

 

Whilst studying I met a bookkeeper at the playgroup I took my children to and she was kind enough to offer me some bookkeeping work alongside my studies. Once I’d qualified I set up on my own and I’ve never looked back.

 

Covid came along but for me it highlighted that virtual bookkeeping was the best way forward, not only for me around family life but for my clients too. It allows me to provide bookkeeping support across the UK and to work with a broader client base in the ‘feel good industry’ which is really invigorating.

 

In my spare team I’m a bit of a fitness fanatic. I love yoga, running and going to the gym. Living on the edge of Epping Forest means that I can enjoy walking and cycling with my teenage boys. My brother has recently introduced us to bird watching which is quite fascinating and relaxing!

​

The thing I love most about what I do is when my clients realise the potential their business has by getting a better understanding of their finances. I’ve been on business journeys with such fantastic and inspirational people and it’s so rewarding.

 

If you think we’d be a great fit and would love some friendly bookkeeping support, then I’d love to hear from you.
