Meet the Team
Lisa Compton qualified as an Accountant in 1990 and set up her own business
in 2000 because she felt that was the best way to offer a personal, friendly service to small businesses who can
find that larger firms are expensive and not best placed to help them.
Lisa Compton - Chartered Accountant
Lisa has been running Liric since April 2000 and is the managing director and customer manager.
