About Jamie O Hanlon
I recall being an eighteen year old returning to Ireland having spent two months in Spain, attempting to mind children for the summer. I was awaiting exam results and the prospect of a career choice in the coming weeks. I saw an advert for a business college offering professional accountancy courses and thought that in order to be a BIG SHOT business man in the future I would need a good understanding of business financials. Little did I realise that twenty seven years later that the business I would establish would be a professional services firm offering business and financial support to the SME business sector.
I have to say that I enjoy, hugely, my role as an adviser to business owners and managers. My position with the firms’ clients allows me to be able to support them on an on-going basis – I truly feel that I am a PARTNER in their business and love to hear from them when my help is needed. One of the attributes that has stood to me over the years is my desire to grow my own business, to explore all areas essential to running my business – as a business owner with extensive knowledge and experience of running my own business I know that I am well able to help others in running and growing their business.
The primary reason for business owners and manager setting up in business is to provide for ourselves and our families and to ensure that we can live a financially comfortable and rewarding life, now and in the future. In addition I like many others want to grow a business that I can be proud of, leaving behind a legacy, big or small. The personal reward that I get from seeing other business owners & managers succeed is second to none, other than my gorgeous kids (in whom I am soooo proud). I want to help and I hope you give me the opportunity.

Having got to know the company through the BNI we decided it was time to change accountant. What impressed me about Avid Partners was their professionalism. Their attention to detail was second to none and as an added bonus they are a sounding board to all of my questions. Avid also potted some irregularities in my accounts from the previous few years and saved me substantial money on the years tax bill. Avid Partners deliver a first class service which is everything you could want from an accountant and I am happy to give this endorsement.

I met Avid Partners through a local business networking group. We had been using the same accountants for years and found that in these harsh economic times that we were not getting good enough value or service. We were very impressed by the company's professionalism and enthusiasm and genuine interest in helping us get the most out of our business. As a result we are now clients of Avid Partners and are thrilled with our decision.
