R Rose & Co - Chartered Accountants in Woodseats, Sheffield

The Team

	Roger Rose FCA Qualified 1970
	After training and qualifying with a 10 partner practice, Roger was promoted to audit manager. He was then invited to join an audit client in a manufacturing company, a small Plc. He spent a total of 10 years in industry before deciding that there was a gap in the market for accountants to become virtual financial directors for small companies. Working on a self employed basis, the companies had the expertise of a qualified accountant without the need to employ one on a full time basis. Hence, R Rose & Co was born. Roger therefore has a wealth of experience not only drawn from working in practice but also in industry, helping businesses to grow and retain as much of that wealth as possible. Many businesses have been helped from start up to eventual retirement or sale.
