Services for Growing Businesses

The Rationale

Continuum was founded by two business professionals, Charles Keene and Brian Green, who have a wealth of experience in both practice and industry.
Driven by the belief that the small business community is not always adequately served by traditional accountancy practices, Continuum was formed to provide commercially proactive and value added services suited to the needs of the client.
Our aim is to genuinely assist businesses to start up, grow and ultimately thrive in today’s ever increasingly competitive climate.

The Founders

Charles Keene

Charles qualified as a chartered accountant in a Central London practice whose clients ranged from listed companies to owner managed businesses. After qualifying, he spent six years in the Grand Metropolitan group (now Diageo).
Charles later worked on the restructuring of the Hamptons estate agency chain and rebuilt its financial system before its sale to the Bristol & West group, where he remained to integrate the acquisition. He was appointed director of their offshore banking business where he changed the marketing focus and doubled its assets in eighteen months.
Latterly, Charles has worked as COO in a software company that he turned around and sold, and as CEO in a direct marketing business.

Brian Green

Brian has over twenty years experience in finance roles in both industry and practice. He majors in all aspects of strategic and financial management for smaller businesses.
Brian initially spent eight years at a commodities trading firm in the City. In 1989 he joined the then largest firm of French Chartered Accountants, Guerard Viala, to set up their UK business advisory division. Brian later joined a Hampshire based firm of Chartered Accountants where he was a director responsible for financial management and business advisory services for small and start-up companies.
Brian then went back into industry where he became Finance Director of several companies in the new media field where his role included playing pivotal roles in successful IPO's on the Nasdaq and AIM markets.
Brian specialises in growing companies from start up and turnaround situations. He currently serves as a non executive director of companies in the mail order, new media, IT and home entertainment industries amongst others.
