Our founder
Stacey Hallam has over 25 years of experience in accountancy. She founded Hallam & Co Accountancy a decade ago, with a clear mission: to provide business owners with the kind of accountancy support she believed every business deserves: clear and straightforward financial advice, reliable expertise, and a personal service that clients trust.
Stacey began her career in finance in 2000 and built experience across a wide range of accounting and finance roles, whilst gaining a number of professional qualifications.
In 2016, Stacey made the decision to leave full-time employment and focus on building her own practice. Since then, Hallam & Co has grown steadily through word-of-mouth and client referrals: a reflection of the successful relationships she builds with her clients.
Today, Stacey works with businesses across a variety of industries, providing practical advice and dependable accountancy support that helps business owners stay organised, make informed decisions, and feel confident about their finances.
