From St Paul's to Aldgate, we keep the books, file the returns and produce the numbers for City firms. We're on Paul Street, a short walk north of Moorgate, so we can easily get to you.
EC1, EC2, EC3 and EC4: the Square Mile and its edges.
Behind the big institutions, the City is full of small firms: boutique advisory and corporate finance houses, consultancies, legal and recruitment practices, holding companies, and the UK subsidiaries of overseas groups that need a London presence.
Their accounting needs are rarely exotic, but expectations are high. Clean books every month, VAT on international clients handled correctly, payroll that copes with bonuses and benefits, and accounts that stand up when a bank, investor or parent company asks for them.
Our office is at 86–90 Paul Street, EC2A, ten minutes on foot from Moorgate and Liverpool Street. We come to you for onboarding and the meetings that matter, and work in Slack, Teams or email the rest of the time.
Everything runs in Xero, so your numbers are current whether we're in your office or ours.
Consultancies, corporate finance boutiques, legal and recruitment practices: work in progress, partner or director drawings, and monthly accounts the partners actually read.
