Adding Time & Value
The Team
Helen Bower - BA Dual Hons, FICB PM. Dip.
Owner of Adder Bookkeeping
Big Boss Lady and bookkeeping guru. Being a fan of ‘Miranda’ has been known to gallop and prance around the office when signing fabulous new clients and balancing tricky numbers. Also has an extensive repertoire of dirty jokes.
Penny Hall - MICB
Lady Penelope is the fashion style icon of the office. Rumoured to have more shoes than Imelda Marcos and often giving orders to someone on the phone called Parker?
Rachel Chapman - MICB
Blonde bombshell and ex cabin crew. Good at sashaying around the office with a tray of drinks and stowing handbags safely under desks. Strange inclination to keep asking ‘chicken or beef?’
Ray Bower - CQP. FCQI. I.Eng
The wise old owl, responsible for everything NOT bookkeeping related. Rumoured to have originated in the 19th Century and be a direct descendent of Confucius.
Ruby Lavery - AICB
Ruby’s addition to the team has excited Helen’s competitive spirit. She now has serious rivalry on who can lower the tone quickest and to what level. Top of Ruby’s to-do list is choosing between Sylvester Stallone and David Beckham, which is a lifelong dilemma.
Belinda Watkins - MICB
Belinda shares Helen’s interest in horror shows and zombie apocalypses. Although to be fair, the team look better after their first cup of coffee.
Nicky Payne
Nicky is in control of our administration and systems. Having previously worked in a school, she is used to dealing with mischievousness and childish behaviour. Perfect for the Adder team, then.
