Vicky Anderson
Managing Director & Principal
As Managing Director and Principle of the business Vicky manages all sectors of the business from the Training, Payroll Bureau and Bookkeeping alongside offering consultancy services. She has a wealth of knowledge within all aspects of accounts and business particularly specialising in the rural and farming sectors. She has worked with many of the current clients in excess of 20 years and assisted businesses throughout pandemics such as foot & mouth and Covid and works closely with advisors and bank managers.
Vicky still visits regular clients reaching from Northumberland to South and West Yorkshire, which ensures she is in touch with the grass roots of the business.
She works with all programs used in the business and has been a computer trainer since 1995 working with companies such as Farmplan and other IT systems and is a qualified adult trainer.
Vicky as you can imagine is a very busy person but enjoys breeding and showing her children’s riding ponies and always enjoys a good hot holiday to take a break every year.
She also has a couple of spaniels and has a very cute parson jack russell, which means a good dog walk is always part of her daily routine.
Matthew Clarke
Accountant
Matthew started working within Vicky Anderson Ltd in 2019 as our in-house accountant, after meeting Vicky and realising that we could work together to offer the clients a much better accountancy service, and Vicky was keen to offer a more complete service to the clients.
He has been completing year end accounts and Tax Returns for our clients ever since. His broad spectrum of knowledge allows him to discuss a client’s business needs and advise on HMRC rules and guidelines, ensuring that the client’s accounts show a fair picture of their business, while enabling them to develop and grow and be as tax efficient as possible. He works closely with various Tax advisors and ensures that all our clients have the best service.
Matthew is qualified with ICB and AAT and lives with his wife and children, he now works with his grandson who is working as an apprentice accountant alongside Matthew. Matthew enjoys nothing more than researching into alternative ways we can assist clients in their tax issues or making their businesses more profitable and resilient.
Matthew is a valued member of the Team and is always available to help with queries.

She had not intended on applying for a role in the business but Vicky saw her talents and she has been a huge asset to the business ever since.

She works with some clients who we have worked with for more than 20 years and ensures that all clients be they old or new get the same care and attention.
