Richard Hamilton

Senior Manager FCCA

started working at Lambert Chapman in June 1997 and I qualified in 2002. I now work as a Senior Manager for the team dealing with Lisa Greenwood’s portfolio of clients. I work on year end accounts, management accounts and audits and deal with a lot of client queries as they arise.

I work on a number of specialist assignments, including FCA clients, Solicitors and Clubs.

I am heavily involved in the firm’s portfolio of charity clients which includes the preparation of accounts, independent examinations and audits.

Personal:

1^st Job: Other than a paper round, my job at Lambert Chapman

Great Meal: If cooking, I would choose stew and dumplings; if not, a Chinese takeaway

Hometown: Born in Great Dunmow, now living in Braintree

Ideal day away from the office: Lazy morning, followed by watching a football match in the afternoon and then either a trip to the cinema or a concert in the evening

Perfect holiday destination: Maldives – went there for honeymoon and would love to return

Most listened to Music/Album: all-time favourite artist is Neil Young, but I have quite an eclectic taste ranging from rock/indie groups (Simple Minds, Foo Fighters, Weezer, Alt-j) to dance/rap music (Gorillaz, De La Soul). Favourite album would be Tonight’s The Night (Neil Young) or Sign O’ The Times (Prince)

Tipple of choice: Ale (current favourite is Old Peculier)

Dream Motor: Not really into cars, but something sporty would be good

Classic Film: Pulp Fiction

Words of Wisdom: Treat others as you would wish to be treated yourself

Bet you didn’t know that… I am a distant relation of former Radio One DJ ‘Diddy’ David Hamilton.
