Dua and Co have been acting for Ultimate Branding for 12 years and I have to say that they have always provided an exceptional service and go above and beyond anything we require.

Dua not only have a brilliant leader but the support team are also without question excellent at everything they are asked to provide. I have recently been dealing with Ahsen Aslam and he has always acted promptly and efficiently with my requests. He is diligent and accurate in dealing with our accounts and I would highly recommend him and the whole Dua team to anyone needing an accountant.

Our business is a part of the local community! We invest our time in local organisations, supporting them by attending and staging events.

We want our accountancy and business consultancy to be a part of local life and a better place to be.

about dua

Ben Almond

Real Estate Consultant

I am a real estate transformation consultant at DUA. I am also a Chartered Accountant and a Chartered Surveyor. Finding solutions is what I love. All companies regularly face strategic, financial or operational business challenges but many companies do not realise that optimising their real estate can be one of the solutions to dealing with these challenges. My work helps companies identify, design and then implement operationally effective real estate solutions that make the financials work.

In my spare time, I am a 3rd Dan Black belt in Judo and a Judo coach. I have a keen interest in leadership strategy and mindset coaching. I love travelling, especially to Portugal.

I love working with my colleagues and help develop their skills, building on ten years man management skills, working and rising to senior management level overseeing teams for one of the fastest growing accounting firms in the UK.

I love golf and football, and I play whenever I have the opportunity!
