Rollits recruits experienced accountant to support Private Capital team

An experienced accountant who has held senior positions with firms across the region has joined leading law firm Rollits as Trust Administrator to the Private Capital team based at its York office.

Clare Stones attended Joseph Rowntree Secondary School in York and then embarked on her career in accountancy, completing her Association of Accounting Technicians studies with YH Training and then her Association of Chartered Certified Accountants qualification at Kaplan in Leeds.

After gaining a degree in applied accounting at Oxford Brookes University she worked as Client Manager at Garbutt & Elliott, provided accountancy support to her own clients on a self-employed basis, and more recently worked as Group Client Director at Delve Accounting Group.

Clare’s role at Rollits is to provide day-to-day trust administration services and prepare annual accounts and tax returns for income tax, capital gains tax and inheritance tax.

Away from work Clare is an active supporter of charities. She spent 10 years as treasurer of the Special Care Baby Unit at York Hospital and she runs to raise money for various causes, with plans to complete Ultra-Marathon later this year.
