CLIENT MANAGER / ACCOUNTANT
Hannah Ludgate
Hannah Ludgate is a Client Manager and Accountant with more than 20 years of experience helping businesses grow with clarity and confidence. After building her career in Buckinghamshire, she relocated to Cornwall in 2025, bringing deep expertise in statutory accounts, corporate tax, CIS and VAT, with certifications in Xero and QuickBooks.
Her route into accounting began unexpectedly. Working in a supermarket after school, she wasn’t sure what came next until a leaflet advertising bookkeeping training arrived through the door. That simple moment set her on a path that has become a long and rewarding career. Today, she thrives on helping clients save money, streamline their systems and make informed decisions. She works across a broad range of sectors, including construction, retail and ecommerce, media and creative industries, and hospitality and tourism.
Calm, friendly and highly organised, Hannah is genuinely motivated by seeing her clients succeed.
