About Clever Bean
Unlike traditional accountants who simply report on past performance, Clever Bean combines decades of industry experience with commercial insight to help businesses understand their numbers and use them to drive profitability and sustainable growth. Clever Bean Accounting was founded by Simon Jarman FCMA, who spent over 30 years in the glazing, window and door industry, including 10 years as CEO and Finance Director of Everest. That first-hand experience means Clever Bean understands the unique challenges faced by businesses in our industry and provides practical, tailored advice that delivers measurable results.
“Too many glazing businesses are profitable on paper but cash-poor in reality. Our job is to show owners exactly why, and what to do about it.”
