Lee Rollaston
Accountant
Lee recently joined the team in June 2022 from a small accountancy practice based in High Lane, Stockport. Lee worked with owner managed businesses across a varied number of sectors, having previously worked for a medium sized firm in Manchester for over 18 years, specialising in audit.
Lee qualified as a Chartered Certified Accountant in 1996 and has over 35 years’ experience gained in the accountancy profession, working with owner managed businesses in a range of business sectors. He also has an extensive working knowledge of Corporation Tax and Personal Tax.
“Outside of the office, I enjoy spending time with my family and keeping active with his hobbies of walking, cycling and swimming.”
Leanne Pearson
Office and Payroll Manager
Leanne joined the team in November 2021 as Office and Payroll Administrator and is responsible for overseeing the running of the practice.
Previously Leanne sent 17 years as a manager of a number of stores in the retail sector in and around the area.
“In my spare time, I love to travel and explore new places. I am also a self-professed Christmas fanatic.”
Jack Allen
Accountant
Jack started his accountancy career back in 2016 as an apprentice with a large firm in Stockport, working in service charge accounts. Jack joined the Clayton CCA team in February 2020 as an apprentice, just before lockdown, so his introduction to the team was a little unusual!
In his time at the firm, Jack has become a specialist in all things Xero and its connecting applications as well as preparing sole trader, partnership and limited company accounts and tax returns.
Jack has achieved his professional diploma in accounting from AAT in 2022 and became a qualified accountant. Jack enjoys getting to know you and your businesses, supporting them to better understand their financial information through the software Clayton CCA provides.
“In my free time I enjoy watching sport, listening to music and all things technology and gaming.”
Hazel Body
Accounts Support
Hazel has over 25 years’ experience working in various accountancy roles for small, medium and large businesses. Hazel has worked both as an accountancy firm and worked directly for businesses in many different sectors including manufacturing, wholesale, and construction.
Alongside this, Hazel has helped run several businesses with her husband, who currently has holiday lets in New Mills. Hazel has also been involved with several local groups as a volunteer, often, although not always, fulfilling the role of treasurer.
Hazel joined the Clayton CCA team in March 2022 as the specialized bookkeeper and enjoys working with Kris and the team in the beautiful office in Torr Vales Mill in The Torrs.
“When I am not working, I spend my time, walking my four dogs, gardening, swimming and going to fitness classes.”
