Richard Pilmore - Director

“Since 2010, I have worked in the accountancy sector, mainly in accountancy practices, servicing small to medium-sized businesses across many different sectors. I set up RLTP back in 2017. I could see a gap in the market for small practices – I found that there was a lack of focus on customer service in the industry, and other practices were not utilising software to its full potential”.
