Independent chartered accountancy, St Helier

This page summarises what Clive Tomes & Co says it does, taken from published directory records on 5 September 2026. It is a reference entry, not a review: we have not worked with them and we do not rank the firms in this directory. Their entry comes from a third-party directory rather than the firm's own site, so treat the detail as indicative.

What is not on the list

Nothing on Clive Tomes & Co's published list mentions payroll and ITIS, GST returns, year-end accounts, company secretarial work, virtual finance director work and software and training. If one of those is your main reason for hiring someone, that is the question to open with rather than an assumption to make.

A note on the length of that list

Clive Tomes & Co publishes 11 separate service lines. Breadth on a website is a claim about the firm, not about the person who would be assigned to you, and the two come apart most often at the small end of a large firm's client book. Worth asking who specifically would handle the work and what else sits on their desk.

Who runs it

Clive Tomes & Co does not name its partners or directors publicly on its own website, so we have not listed any. That is common among smaller practices and says nothing about the firm.

Who they tend to suit

Where we fit

Being straight about it: Bookkeeper.je is one of the firms on this island, so we are a competitor of Clive Tomes & Co, not a neutral referee. We do monthly bookkeeping, payroll, GST returns and management accounts for Jersey businesses on a fixed monthly fee. We are not auditors and not a chartered firm — if that is what you need, Clive Tomes & Co or another firm here will serve you better and we will say so.

How we sourced this entry

Unlike most entries here, this one was not taken from Clive Tomes & Co's own Jersey website. It comes from a third-party directory of Channel Islands firms, which means the service list reflects how the firm is described rather than how it describes itself. Treat it as a starting point and check anything that matters directly with them.
