Who We Help
Limited Companies
For limited companies, remaining compliant can be time-consuming. For us, it’s our bread and butter. Our core service is to ensure your company remains compliant, and to ensure it is as tax efficient as possible.
Outside of the red tape and deadline, we will support you throughout the year with profit & tax planning. The best time to save tax is before your year-end, not after.
We can also take care of your bookkeeping & payroll, or support you and your team as you run those numbers yourself. If we’ve got the fundamentals right (bookkeeping & payroll), and we’re preparing your accounts throughout the year (not working towards a deadline like your “traditional, reactive accountants”), we’re one step away from helping you plan for the future with management accounts, budgets and forecasts.
Sole Traders
As a small business, any time you don’t spend in your business is profit lost. When you ARE your business, finding time to comply with Companies House, or HMRC, can be exhausting.
We’re here to help small businesses that need to outsource their accountancy to a professional. We understand that costs can be high for small businesses, which is why we’re happy to do as much or as little as you want, outside of your accounts and tax. Take bookkeeping, for example, we’re happy to do it all for you, share the burden with you, or train you on how to do it yourself, and just support you when you need it.
Plus, for even smaller self-employed individuals, we can offer a Tax-Return-Only service, providing basic compliance where costs need to be kept to a minimum.
New Startups
Like all of our clients, we were once a start-up business. So, we fully appreciate how daunting it is to build a business from the ground up.
We’ve felt the growing pains and faced the challenges of those early days, which is why we’re in a position to provide your business with expert advice. We’ve made the mistakes so you don’t have to, and we can provide you with the information you need to prepare for what’s on the horizon.
We can help you start your business from the ground up, helping you form your company, register you for various taxes, and educate you on what it means to be a business owner. We’ll help you comply with your obligations, guide you through your bookkeeping, and help you set targets and make your business a success.
You aren’t going into business because you’re an accountant, you’re doing it because you’re good at what YOU do.

Successful Businesses
If your business is profitable, showing signs of growth/scalability (e.g. employees, departments, premises), and your starting to look towards the future, then you may require a more intense type of accountancy service to “compliance only”.
Not only can we take care of your compliance, you can outsource as much of your finance function to us as you like. We can take care of your fundamentals such as bookkeeping & payroll, or work with your in-house team, or external bookkeeper, to get your numbers correct, and live in your software.
The focus for successful businesses should be planning for the future. We can strategise your tax, help you set targets and key performance indicators (KPI’s) for your business, and create board packs including managements accounts, KPI analysis, prior year comparison, and budgets/forecasting.
In short, we’ll take care of all of the numbers, giving you the information you need to reach your targets, and leaving you with the time needed to steer your business in the right direction.
