My company has used what is now Moore Thompson for probably more than 50 years and we have seen no reason to move away. Together with MT we have transitioned from manual ledgers to sophisticated computer accounting
Moore Thompson has always been a proactive firm with an exceedingly competent and stable team who, over the years, have got to know our business very well. I won’t say I ever look forward to being audited but it’s always a pain-free experience.
Some years ago we had great support from Mark Hildred and his team in unravelling a fairly diverse and quite complex situation and the advice we were given then (as always) made the situation much more manageable.
I have the most contact now with the payroll bureau, who have always handled the directors’ remuneration; and three or so years ago we decided to let them handle the complete payroll. It’s very cost effective - the charge is less per month than we were paying for Sage Payroll support. We also got them to handle the auto-enrolment pension.
I really cannot recommend Moore Thompson highly enough, if you want a local firm to give you sound and professional advice across a broad spectrum of knowledge then look no further

Moore Thompson has sorted out the accounts for Opperman Plants Ltd for some years so it made sense to combine the payroll too, particularly as our in-house payroll team felt they would struggle with the additional workload resulting from Workplace Pensions.
The payroll team have all been very helpful – they are quick to provide answers, and if we do not understand something they give clear explanations. In particular, Rachel and Kieran are very approachable and responsive.
MT’s payroll team have taken away the anxiety of calculating weekly and monthly payrolls and we would certainly recommend them to other businesses.

“It was great to meet you and I left very impressed with your knowledge on auto enrolment and NEST and how you/Moore Thompson have embraced auto enrolment and been proactive in developing a really good service for clients. Your view chimes with ours that most employers will want their accountant/payroll provider to help them comply with auto enrolment and set up and run NEST. I think you’ve got the right proposition at the right price. As you know, in NEST you have access to a high quality, government linked, pension scheme that will remain available to all of your clients, throughout the ‘staging’ time period.
It was great to hear that your proactive stance on auto enrolment is already helping Moore Thompson to attract new payroll clients, as well as increase revenues from existing clients. I’m sure this will continue. If you would like NEST input to any of your marketing events or communications or to be one of our case studies do let me know.”
