Claire Tovey
Assistant Accounts Manager
Joining the firm as an Assistant Accounts Manager, Claire brings a unique blend of industry, practice, and entrepreneurial experience to the team.
Having previously worked as a Finance Assistant for an international renewable energy consultancy, she gained valuable insight into the financial operations of a global business while building a strong foundation in day-to-day accounting tasks.
Claire has also ran her own business, working with sole traders in the food industry. This experience not only honed her accounting skills but also provided hands-on knowledge of marketing, sales, and operational management.
At Winchester Bourne, Claire has been focused on streamlining processes to improve efficiency, using automation, AI, and workflow management tools to reduce manual effort and enhance accuracy. Her expertise lies in Xero and Excel's Power Query—a powerful data transformation tool that simplifies complex, time-consuming tasks into quick, automated processes at the click of a button.
Claire is passionate about delivering real, tangible results for clients. She works closely with businesses to identify pain points, implement practical solutions, and unlock new efficiencies. Her proactive approach and dedication to client success ensure timely, accurate financial insights that support better decision-making and growth.
Claire is currently studying for her professional qualification (ACCA), aiming to complete it by the end of 2026. This is a significant achievement, as she has been self-studying around work and raising her two young children—a testament to her determination and strong work ethic.
Outside of work, she enjoys tabletop gaming and discovering new board games. The more complicated the better, and she loves using the safety net of fiction to take big risks.
Known for her problem-solving skills, adaptability, and proactive mindset, Claire brings a detail-oriented and process-improvement focus to her role, always seeking ways to optimize performance and deliver exceptional client outcomes. She also excels in communication and has a knack for process innovation, consistently learning and applying new technologies to enhance efficiency.
With a client-centric mindset and a proven track record in transforming complex processes into streamlined, automated solutions, Claire is a valuable partner for any business looking to simplify their financial operations and gain clearer, more actionable insights.
