Welcome

My name is Ken James M.I.C.B PM Dip. I am the owner of KMJ Bookkeeping, which is based in Bournemouth, Dorset, and provides a range of professional bookkeeping & accounting services to small and medium sized businesses in the local area.

As a qualified bookkeeper, I am certified, licensed and regulated by the Institute of Certified Bookkeepers, the largest bookkeeping institute in the world.

Prior to starting my own business, I gained invaluable experience within both the hospitality industry and working for the local authority, the latter overseeing and being accountable for many budgetary commitments within a health and social care setting.

I founded KMJ Bookkeeping in 2016 to meet the needs of both small and medium sized businesses within Bournemouth and its surrounding areas, the main aim to deliver a service that is honest, reliable, professional and approachable.
