Desirie Lea
Director, Chester
I am a member of the ICAEW and ACCA and have been helping clients by providing accountancy and taxation advice for the last 25 years. I am passionate about accountancy and delivering the best possible pro-active service to my clients which hopefully not only helps them to grow their business, but provides peace of mind that accounting advice is only ever an email or phone call away. I am very fortunate to have the help and support of a very dedicated team around me and I genuinely couldn’t do the job without them.
Whilst my background has been rooted in general practice, I have developed a special interest in the franchise and ophthalmic sectors and I am very proud to have achieved the British Franchise Association’s (BFA) Qualified Franchise Professional qualification. As part of my work within this sector, I provide training and support on behalf of the BFA and other national franchise networks and was also very proud to achieve ‘Highly Commended’ in the British Accountancy awards ‘Practitioner of the Year’ as well as being a finalist in ‘Partner of the Year’ a couple of years later.
What makes DJH Mitten Clarke great is…
Working with a truly dedicated team whose top priority is to help clients achieve their ambitions and grow a successful business. I can honestly say that every single member of the team is focused on achieving the best possible outcome for our clients.
My most trusted piece of advice in business is…
Follow your dreams and don’t be deterred by the bumps along the way! Seek professional advice for those areas which either don’t interest you or take up too much of your valuable time which could be better spent elsewhere.
On a Saturday morning, you’ll usually find me…
Walking the dog with my husband – we usually like to walk around 7-8 miles but don’t always achieve it!
