As an AIM‑listed contract manufacturer, the demands on our finance function are significant — tight reporting deadlines, complex operational data, and the need for absolute clarity in our numbers. Since moving to Cooper Parry in 2023, our experience of audit has improved considerably.
Their team combines technical expertise with a commitment to client service. They are responsive, proactive, and supportive, often resolving queries before they develop into issues. Their understanding of the pressures faced by AIM‑listed businesses has been very helpful, and their calm, solutions‑focused approach gives us confidence throughout the audit cycle.
This year, we set an ambitious goal to accelerate our reporting timetable by six weeks, moving from late January to mid‑December. Cooper Parry partnered closely with us to streamline the audit process, identify efficiencies, and further strengthen communication between teams — enabling us to deliver to the accelerated deadline without compromising quality.
Working with Cooper Parry feels like they are a trusted and supportive extension of our team, providing clarity, constructive challenge, and practical guidance whenever we need it, while operating within the boundaries of audit independence. We would highly recommend Cooper Parry to any AIM‑listed business seeking an audit partner that genuinely prioritises service, responsiveness, and delivery.
