Who we are
SJW Accountancy was founded with one goal: to give local businesses the same quality of accountancy support that larger companies take for granted — but with the personal touch that only a local firm can offer.
Based in Ilkeston, Derbyshire, we work with clients across a wide range of industries — from tradespeople and freelancers to limited companies, landlords, and charities. Our team of qualified accountants brings over 20 years of combined experience to every client relationship.
Jack Wainwright, who leads the firm, is licensed and regulated by AAT (licence number 1008007), giving you the confidence that your finances are in safe, professional hands.
Our values
Honest
We tell you what you need to hear, not what you want to hear. No hidden fees, no surprises — just clear, straightforward advice.
Personal
You'll always speak to someone who knows your business. We build long-term relationships, not just annual transactions.
Proactive
We don't just file your returns — we look for opportunities to save you money and flag issues before they become problems.
Local
We're based right here in Ilkeston. We understand the local business community and are proud to be part of it.
