Awake was founded on a simple belief: organisations deserve more than compliant accounts. They deserve financial clarity, confident decisions and a finance function that helps them move forward.
We bring together more than 30 years of experience across finance transformation, commercial and management accounting, statutory reporting, tax and compliance, cloud systems, governance and strategic planning. Our background spans PwC, the Bank of England, commercial organisations, leading accountancy practices, charities and purpose-led organisations.
That breadth matters. It means we can move comfortably from the Board conversation to the detail beneath the numbers—redesigning reporting, strengthening controls, improving systems, supporting growth or acquisitions and ensuring the compliance foundations remain reliable.
Awake is deliberately personal, but never limited by the size of its core team. We collaborate with a trusted network of specialists across tax, technology, ESG and social value, funding and organisational development. This allows us to bring together the right expertise for each assignment while remaining practical, responsive and accountable.
We are based in London and in the Lancashire Fylde Coast and work with organisations across the UK, internationally and locally. Cloud systems help us work efficiently, but technology is never the point: better information, better decisions and better outcomes are.
WHAT AWAKE BRINGS TO THE TABLE
• Finance transformation — reporting, forecasting, systems, controls and commercial insight.
• Strategic advisory — Board information, governance, growth, acquisition integration and organisational sustainability.
• Technical foundations — accounting, tax, compliance, cloud systems and dependable client delivery.
• Connected expertise — collaboration across social value, ESG, technology, funding and organisational development.
Finance should never hold an organisation back. It should be the engine that helps it grow.
