About

Darren commenced his career within Accountancy in 2000, working for a local Accountancy practice. During his training and progression throughout his career he has dealt with many different types of trades so giving him great experience in many sectors.

Following the decision to move Accountancy practice to further his career, Darren received personal recommendations from prospective clients. This encouraged him to pursue his ultimate ambition and as a result, Darren commenced his private practice in 2007. Since the private practice was established, the client base has developed mainly from the valuable commendation of existing clients, whom have voluntarily recommended the services provided by Darren.

Alongside maintaining his private practice, Darren was employed within a specialist medical Accountancy firm in Lincolnshire from 2008 to 2014. This gave him experience of Accounting in the private medical profession. Within this role, his duties included responding to the needs of large consultancy partnerships and individual consultants trading as a sole trader or a Limited Company, within the medical profession. This equipped Darren with additional knowledge on tax planning to support high earning individuals to minimise their tax liability, within the legal boundaries.

Darren is a fellow member of the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT) and a member of the Association of Taxation Technicians (ATT). In 2013, it was decided to incorporate the private practice into D Hubbard Accountancy Limited, to which Darren is a director. He ceased his additional employment in 2014, to enable him to concentrate full time on his private practice and expand the existing service he is able to offer to clients. The practice provides a full Accountancy service to various businesses, which is currently in excess of 425 clients. Due to this expansion the practice now has five experienced accounts technicians, who assist Darren in looking after all our clients needs. The practice has and will always maintain a one telephone number / email address policy which allows darren to ensure all client correspondence are dealt with quickly and efficiently.

Darren welcomes the opportunity to meet prospective clients, in order to discuss how the services he provides can be tailored to meet the individual needs of their businesses. The reputation Darren has upheld demonstrates his value for existing, loyal clients and responding to their needs, in order to maintain his client base.

Testimonials

"I highly recommend D Hubbard Accountancy Limited in Sleaford for all your business needs. I came to Darren in 2022 after several years of atrocious service from other large firms. This time I wanted a local person, whose door I could knock on should I have any queries. Unlike all the other firms I have used before, Darren and the team have been above and beyond helpful. Believe it or not I actually had to chase my old accountants for information, often being ignored. As a small business this is huge to me.

I have no desire to ever take my business elsewhere now, Darren has proved there are good accountants out there, and has turned by anxiety around having to speak to the accountants into a pleasure to take his call... I have zero complaints."

Jaycee Lennox - Body TLC Limited. Lincoln

"I have much pleasure in stating that I have been served since 2011 by D Hubbard Accountancy Limited in a very prompt, courteous and professional manner. I wish Darren the future success he deserves."

Mr N Brookes – Brookes Kitchens Limited

"Darren has been our Accountant now since 2007, I have always found him professional, friendly, helpful and reliable. I wouldn't consider moving our Accounts to anyone else and have no hesitation in highly recommending him."

Mr B Iszatt – Motor Vehicle Body Repairs

"As a small business Active Networks & Security Systems Limited have seen rapid growth in both our client base and in our annual turnover. With increased financial commitments we require up to date and accurate account information to ensure our cash flow remains available and that our vat and income tax duties are correctly managed. D Hubbard Accountancy Limited have been providing us with a faultless service since 2009, adjusting their service as our needs increased and expanded to include VAT & payroll.

Darren is always available to assist or advise with any requirement or query we may have, and accommodates any meetings to fit around our schedule, which often means evenings and weekends.

I cannot recommend Darren highly enough and recommend him to any individual or business who are looking for assistance with their financial affairs.

Thanks again for all your help and advice, your service is an invaluable asset to my business."

Mr G Thompson – Active Networks & Security Systems Limited

"Darren has been our company Accountant since 2016, he has dealt with the VAT, Limited company accounts, bookkeeping and my personal tax affairs. I appreciate all the effort Darren has put into my business and value his input. Being able to call or meeting with someone outside office hours is very useful when you are running a busy restaurant.

I always recommend D Hubbard Accountancy Limited since moving to them many years ago."

Mr R Corder – Millstream Thai Limited

"I am the owner of the Specsavers franchise in Sleaford and had the pleasure of meeting Darren in 2009 when he attended for an eye test.
Running the business means I get very little time to look into the detail that is necessary to ensure I was not only being compliant with tax affairs, but that I was being efficient too. Following the initial chance meeting with Darren I took up the offer of his services and have never looked back. Darren has always been very flexible in terms of meetings and has always taken great time and care to ensure that I understand exactly what is required, he gives me a clear and specific plan of action. Darren has also taken time to understand the nature of the Specsavers franchise model and now has a broad understanding of its workings and nuances.

Outside of my Specsavers dealings, my partner and I have rental properties too. Darren also provides us with his professional services on these matters too, and is equally efficient.

In broader terms, Darren is very friendly and engaging; and is always very responsive to any matters that crop up at any point during the year. I would, and have, happily recommended Darren to all my friends and colleagues."

Mr J Coleman – Sleaford Specsavers

"Darren has been a fantastic support for us since launching our business in 2009. He has continually provided us with a professional, friendly service which has been second to none. I cannot recommend Darren highly enough for the excellent service he continues to provide for us"
