Accounting support for startups and new businesses
If you’re looking for an accountant for your startup, you want things set up properly without being pushed into services you don’t yet need.
We work with startups at the early stages and beyond, helping you stay compliant, keep your records in order, and understand what actually matters financially as your business develops. The focus is on clear advice, steady support, and getting things right early.
What we help startups with
Startups rarely need everything at once. What matters is getting the right support at the right time. The areas below are examples of the support we provide at different stages, from getting set up properly through to ongoing accounting, compliance, and more complex requirements as the business grows.
Setup and structure
Helping you get set up correctly from day one, including company formation, choosing the right structure, and registering with Companies House and HMRC.
Bookkeeping, payroll, VAT and filings
Ongoing bookkeeping, payroll, VAT returns, and annual filings to keep records organised and ensure nothing important is missed.
Cash flow forecasts and reporting
Cash flow forecasts and reporting to help identify potential pressure early and understand where money is being spent.
Accounting systems that fit your business
Advice on choosing the right accounting system early, based on how your business actually operates day to day, to avoid costly changes later.
Funding and investment schemes
Support with funding and investment options where relevant, including SEIS, EIS, and Venture Capital Trusts.
Additional support as needed
Access to additional services when required, such as interim Finance Director or Chief Finance Officer support, R&D Tax Relief, pension auto-enrolment, and Self Assessment.
These are examples of the areas we commonly support startups with. The level of support will vary depending on your stage and requirements.
Who we work with
We work with founders running startups and growing businesses at different stages of their journey.
This includes businesses that are newly set up, businesses that have started trading and need ongoing accounting support, and businesses preparing for growth, funding, or more complex financial requirements.
Rather than focusing on a specific type of business, we focus on providing clear advice and reliable support that fits your situation.
