We’ve worked with SJC for over 10 years, right from the very start of CanO Water. Back then, we were three friends with an idea and no clue how to handle the financial side of a business.
SJC helped us build everything from the ground up. They’ve supported us through every stage - from setting up our first accounts to managing payroll and the kind of detailed reporting that comes with growth.
What’s always stood out is how reliable, patient, and hands-on the team is. They’ve given us real clarity and confidence, and made the finance side feel easy, which isn’t something you can say often in business.
Josh White,
Co-Founder & CEO, Cano Water
We switched to SJC 5 years ago and all I can say is WOW, what a huge help it has been. They are an asset to our business. Lara was appointed as our one-to-one bookkeeper, she is super-efficient, helpful, friendly, and her knowledge has helped us hugely with our accounts, which are now up to date on a weekly basis, with any issues being picked up instantly. I highly recommend SJC, everyone needs a Sam and Lara running their accounts.
Nikki Bull,
Company Manager, Moore's Interiors
We have been working with SJC for 4 years and the support has been consistently excellent. Before partnering with SJC, we faced challenges keeping our finances organised and up to date, but since joining, we’ve had much greater clarity and confidence in our financial position.
The team is responsive, knowledgeable, and proactive – making a tangible difference to our day-to-day operations. I would happily recommend SJC to any business looking for reliable bookkeeping and financial support.
James Cohen,
Founder, Kitt Medical
We’ve been working with Sam and the team at SJC for several years, and they have become an invaluable part of the business. They handle all aspects of our day-to-day bookkeeping with complete professionalism and reliability.
Sam is an excellent point of contact – responsive, proactive, and always ready with practical advice, while Sonia ensures payroll runs smoothly every month. Their attention to detail and consistency have given us real peace of mind.
SJC genuinely feels like an extension of our one team, and we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them to any growing business looking for dependable, knowledgeable financial support.

Andrew Binstock,
Director and Auctioneer, Auction House
SJC took over 3.5 years ago and have completely transformed the way our accounts run. We have a complicated Property Company structure consisting of numerous separate entities and I’m pleased to say that everything is now running smooth, accurate, and stress-free!! (At least on the accounts side!!!). They’re reliable, proactive, and a pleasure to work with. We’re genuinely grateful for the difference they have made. Highly recommended.
Laurence Beck & Daniel Berko,
Directors, Aspect Property Group
We’ve been working with Samantha and SJC for several years now, and they’ve become a trusted extension of our team. Before partnering with them, our financial reporting and bookkeeping processes were solid but time-consuming and lacked the clarity we needed for quick decision-making.
SJC streamlined everything, from day-to-day bookkeeping to management accounts — giving us accurate, timely insights and the confidence to plan strategically. Their proactive approach and ability to explain complex financial details in a clear, practical way have been invaluable.
What stands out most is their consistency, professionalism, and the genuine interest they take in understanding our business. It’s rare to find a partner who combines precision with such a personal touch.
Richard Smith, Founder & CEO,
Jon Posener, COO, Office Freedom
As a new client of SJC, we have been really impressed with how the transition to working with their team has been such a seamless experience. As a property company, keeping our finances organised is vital, and SJC has brought clarity and structure to our books. Their professionalism, attention to detail, and proactive communication make them an invaluable partner to our business. We couldn’t ask for better support.
We are looking forward to building a long-term partnership with SJC.
Jason Harris & Daniel Goldberg,
Directors, First Urban Group
For approximately 6 years Sam and everyone I have dealt with at SJC have delivered a first-class service to me and the companies I have interest in. They provide a full back-office service ultimately providing me with a monthly management information. From the outset some of my partners have not been keen to outsource these tasks, but in most cases over a period of time they have chosen to extend the services provided by SJC.
Over that time, Sam and the team have continued to be a pleasure to deal with, have in every case provided a highly personalised, diligent, reliable and confidential service we have total confidence in, I highly recommend their service.
Richard Frank
Director
As founders of Flex and The City, we couldn’t be more grateful for the outstanding support we’ve received from SJC. From our earliest start-up days to where we are now, Samantha and her exceptional team (including Thishan, Rutu, and Yash) have been true partners in our growth.
They are speedy, warm, and remarkably generous with their time and expertise. Beyond keeping our books in perfect order, they consistently go the extra mile to explain complex financial matters with clarity and care, giving us genuine confidence and peace of mind as we continue to scale.

Chantal Jacobs,

We have been working with SJC for over 15 years.
They have always displayed huge professionalism in helping the charity develop. They are always focused on meeting deadlines and going beyond what’s necessary to create the right information.
We look forward to continuing our relationship which has been hugely beneficial to the charity.
Spencer Leslie,
Chairman, Future Dreams
It’s been great working with the team at SJC over the last 8 years. They are reliable, affordable, flexible, and really understand the charity and voluntary sector. They have always provided us with an excellent bookkeeping and financial management service. They were quick to understand our needs and are always there to offer advice and support when we need it.
Rachel Rand,
CEO, Haringey Shed
Working with Sam and her team has been amazing. In the first year of working together we optimised our financial policies, shored up on our security around pay runs, and got into a great reporting rhythm. I feel much closer to the figures and my team are really supported in managing our processes. Our in-house workload has gone from consuming to achievable, giving us the space to really get under the figures and understand our forecasts and cash flow better. We absolutely could not have done it without Sam and her team!
