Meet The Founder

Hi, I’m Lee Standen, the face behind Standen Accounting Solutions. I’m an FMAAT-qualified accountant with nearly 20 years of experience, and before starting my own business, I worked as a Financial and Operations Manager for a multinational company. 

I’ve seen first-hand the financial challenges businesses face, and I started this business to provide accessible, reliable, and no-nonsense accounting support to small businesses and sole traders. I believe in keeping things simple—no confusing jargon, no long waits for answers. Just straightforward, expert advice tailored to your business. 

Whether you’re a sole trader in Chichester, a small business in Sussex, or even based elsewhere in the UK, I’m here to support you. Many of my clients appreciate the personal and approachable service I offer, and I take pride in building long-term relationships with the businesses I work with.
