ACCA Certified Services

Chartered Accounting Built for Practical Business Outcomes

Eliminate compliance stress and financial blind spots. Every service is delivered 100% in-house by our Birmingham practice, powered by real-time Xero automation and fixed monthly pricing.

Core Foundation

Outsourced Bookkeeping Services

According to the Office for National Statistics, 90% of UK business failures are rooted directly in cash flow problems. Messy, un-reconciled books prevent directors from seeing their true trading position until it is too late.

Our Birmingham team reconciles your bank transactions on a weekly or monthly timetable using Xero and digital receipt scanning (Dext). We enforce an absolute onshore promise: your records are never offshored to overseas processing centres.

HMRC Record Compliance Full digital trail satisfying HMRC audit standards
Debtor & Credit Control Track overdue receivables and protect liquidity
Live Bank Feeds Daily automated synchronization inside Xero
Annual Compliance & Tax Mitigation

Statutory Accounts & Corporation Tax (CT600)

Every UK limited company must file full year-end statutory financial statements with Companies House and an iXBRL Corporation Tax Return with HMRC. We ensure flawless technical accuracy while legally minimizing your tax burden.

Rather than rushing your return days before the 9-month Companies House filing deadline, we prepare and review your statutory accounts well in advance. This gives you exact figures on upcoming tax liabilities, allowing you to optimize director dividends, pension contributions, and capital investment.

  • Full iXBRL tagging compliance for seamless HMRC and Companies House electronic filing
  • Rigorous review of Annual Investment Allowances (AIA), super-deductions, and allowable commercial expenses
  • Annual director tax planning session to harmonise company profits with personal tax brackets
Strategic Direction

Management Reporting & Virtual CFO Advisory

Historical accounts tell you what happened last year. Management reporting tells you what is happening right now and how to navigate the next twelve months.

Our monthly or quarterly management accounting service equips directors and board members with bespoke executive summaries: department profitability, customer acquisition efficiency, gross margin trends, and 13-week rolling cash flow runways.

Virtual CFO Sounding Board

Access experienced commercial chartered directors without the £100k+ overhead of hiring an in-house Finance Director. We attend board meetings, evaluate fundraising rounds, and test capital expenditure feasibility.

People Operations

Outsourced Payroll & Pension Compliance

Timely, accurate, and confidential payroll management for teams of 1 to 100+ employees. We manage the entire lifecycle from HMRC Real Time Information (RTI) submissions to workplace pension auto-enrolment.

Whether you require single director payroll optimization, statutory sick/maternity pay administration, or Construction Industry Scheme (CIS) subcontractor deductions, our Birmingham team handles every monthly cycle reliably.

  • Automated HMRC Real Time Information (RTI) Full Payment Submissions (FPS) and Employer Payment Summaries (EPS)
  • Secure digital employee payslips and year-end P60 documentation
  • The Pensions Regulator workplace auto-enrolment assessments and Nest/People's Pension uploads
  • Annual P11D benefit-in-kind statements for company cars, medical insurance, and director loans
Innovation & Funding

Research & Development (R&D) Tax Relief

UK companies investing in bespoke software, proprietary engineering, novel manufacturing processes, or science-led innovation can recover up to 27% of qualifying expenditure via HMRC tax credits.

Under recent HMRC regulatory reforms, R&D claims face intense scrutiny. Submitting generic claims risks inquiries and severe penalty surcharges. We prepare meticulous technical project reports and HMRC Additional Information Forms (AIF), ensuring your claims are ironclad.

ESG Compliance & Public Tenders

Carbon Accounting & ESG Measurement

UK corporate supply chains and public sector procurement frameworks now require suppliers to disclose greenhouse gas emissions. We translate your financial transaction data into verifiable carbon metrics.

Using the Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Protocol methodology, we analyze Scope 1, 2, and upstream Scope 3 emissions directly from your operational ledgers, enabling your business to bid confidently on corporate tenders and comply with Streamlined Energy and Carbon Reporting (SECR).

Technology Pillar

Xero Gold Champion Partner Implementation

We build our entire practice on Xero. As accredited Gold Champion Partners, we don't just set up the software — we architect a complete cloud financial operating system for your business.

We integrate automated bank feeds (Barclays, NatWest, Lloyds, Monzo, Tide, Revolut), electronic receipt capture via Dext, Stripe/GoCardless payment gateways, and inventory or CRM connections, giving you 24/7 visibility on mobile or desktop.
