We believe it is our responsibility to give you the maximum financial benefit from contracting: by managing your paperwork, reviewing your finances and offering real-time, proactive advice.
All of our work is 100% guaranteed; and that includes commitments to communicating important information, submitting returns and reports on time, and looking after your business behind the scenes. You genuinely could not be in a safer pair of hands as a contractor.
Don’t take our word for it
Read the stories of the contractors we have helped to be tax-efficient, fully supported and profitable.
“I like the personal relationship. They assign a client manager and you get to know them very well. I tend to have quite a lot of questions and my client manager responds very quickly. We have a very good relationship.
They’re very knowledgeable and provide an awful lot of advice that I’m unaware of in terms of running my own business because this is all new to me. They tend to just do it for me without me having to worry about it.
They’re forthcoming with advice and recommendations that you wouldn’t necessarily know to ask on how to run your own business. I find that very good.”

A choice of solutions…because not all contractors are the same
Some contractors simply want an accountant who will tick all the boxes and keep them legal. Others want to ensure they never pay too much tax; and some of our contractor clients want every single piece of financial advice, paperwork, tax, wealth management and planning done for them. Wherever you are on that scale, that is what we will give you.
Our standard contractor service includes:
- Reducing your paperwork: we process your returns, balance your books, and manage your expenses
- Real-time reporting: our system lets you see everything: bills, income, balance, available funds, and more
- Protection from HMRC challenges: we give you our guarantee to support you with any tax challenge
- The right VAT scheme for you: the average contractor can save £4,000 per year by getting this right
- RTI, VAT returns, statutory accounts, CT600s and your CS01, all sorted on your behalf
- Paying yourself properly: simply by paying yourself the correct wage, you could save up to £1,200 per year
- Using our postal address: use us as your registered office and we will manage your financial correspondence
- Free meetings and no jargon: in plain English and as often as you need: by phone, Skype, or in person
- Plus: free advice on tax credits, stamp duty, inheritance tax, trusts, capital gains tax, and much more…
Service Packages
Our standard service alone will save you more time, add more value to your bottom line and help you run your business more efficiently than most average accountants can. Download our brochure for details of our service packages.
