Paula Smith

Founder / Director

I am a seasoned accountant, having cut my teeth in the corporate world at the likes of Reuters and Enron (it was not me!) in London. With over 26 years of accounting experience, I am passionate about helping businesses grow and maximising their full potential.

I get excited about new systems that enable a business to become more time and cost efficient and which provide meaningful and relevant information to the business owner. I understand the urgency to move away from old traditional desktop accounting systems and have fully embraced the Cloud-based accounting structure.

I dream of one day driving the length of Route 66 in an old Chevy with the top down and the wind blowing through my hair.

Vanessa Bell

Accountant

I have more than 30 years corporate accounting experience. The bulk of my experience was gained working within the Bidvest Group where I nurtured my passion for VAT and income tax.  Joining Paula’s team at Clarity Accounting Solutions has been refreshing. I can fully appreciate that the cloud accounting environment is the future. I love interacting with client’s and learning their business – if you understand the business, the numbers make sense!

Our team has grown

Clarity has grown to a team of more than ten people. We are currently updating this section to introduce everyone — please check back soon.
