Bob Thorpe

I work with many small and medium-sized owner-managed businesses, helping them to achieve their goals by providing clear and effective accounting and tax advice, without the jargon.

With over 30 years’ experience working with businesses across a wide range of sectors, I’m passionate about helping businesses grow and thrive and making Scarborough an attractive place for business owners to live and work. As a member of the Fortus team, I’m now in a much stronger position to deliver on this.

I’m Scarborough born and bred. Outside of work, I’ve always participated in sports and outdoor activities. In my teens and early 20s, I trained in various martial arts, and became a black belt in karate at just 17. This seems a lifetime away and nowadays, I mainly go to the gym, albeit 6 days a week, and walk in and around the stunning coast and countryside that North Yorkshire offers.
