Accounting services for Glasgow businesses
From self-assessment to outsourced CFO support, our full menu of services is available to every business in Glasgow — delivered through cloud accounting and personal relationships.
Taxation
Personal and corporate tax planning, self-assessment returns, capital gains, R&D credits and HMRC enquiry support — all year round, not just in January.
Company Accounts
Statutory year-end accounts prepared in line with FRS 102/105 and filed with Companies House and HMRC — accurate, on time, every time.
Bookkeeping
Cloud bookkeeping with Xero, QuickBooks or FreeAgent. Real-time visibility, bank-feed reconciliations and monthly management reports.
Payroll
Weekly, fortnightly or monthly RTI payroll. Pension auto-enrolment, P60s, P11Ds, CIS deductions and full HMRC liaison.
VAT Returns
MTD-compliant VAT returns under standard, flat-rate or margin schemes. Registration, planning and dispute handling included.
Outsourced CFO
Strategic finance leadership without the six-figure salary. Cash-flow forecasting, board reporting, KPIs and funding advisory.
More than compliance — a real financial partner.
We work with hundreds of businesses across Scotland. Glasgow clients tell us the same things again and again about why they made the switch.
- 01
We pick up the phone
When Glasgow clients call us with a tax question, they speak to a qualified accountant within minutes — not a call queue, not a junior, not a chatbot.
- 02
Fixed monthly fees
No nasty surprises in the post. Pay one fixed fee for everything in your engagement letter, and budget with confidence all year.
- 03
Cloud-first workflow
Xero, QuickBooks, FreeAgent — we set them up, train your team and deliver real-time visibility on your numbers from any device.
- 04
Filed early, always
Self-assessments, VAT returns, CT600s — all submitted at least two weeks before HMRC's deadline. No January panic, ever.
- 05
Proactive tax planning
We don't just report your numbers — we plan for them. Quarterly check-ins keep your Glasgow business tax-efficient all year, not just at year-end.
- 06
Local knowledge, national reach
From local property markets to Scotland-specific compliance, we bring local awareness alongside the resources of a national practice.
Proudly serving Glasgow& beyond.
Working with us from Glasgow
Most clients are fully transitioned within 5–10 working days. We handle the professional clearance letter, request your historic records and migrate your books to the cloud — all included in your first month at no extra cost. You won't miss a single deadline.
Fixed means fixed. Your monthly fee covers everything quoted in your engagement letter. If you take on something materially new — a new payroll scheme, an HMRC enquiry, an extra company — we agree the additional fee in writing before any work begins. You'll never see a surprise invoice.
Not at all. We serve clients across England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland through video calls, secure document portals and cloud accounting software. Around 70% of our clients we've never met in person — and that includes some of our longest-standing relationships.
We're certified partners with Xero, QuickBooks Online, FreeAgent and Sage. We can recommend the right platform for your size and sector, set it up properly, train your team and handle the migration from spreadsheets or another system free of charge.
We handle the full enquiry on your behalf — correspondence, document gathering, technical arguments and meetings with the inspector. Most enquiries we deal with close out without any additional tax due. Optional fee-protection insurance is available so this work is covered without an extra bill.
Yes — and we'll give you a straight answer based on the numbers, not a sales pitch. We'll model the take-home pay, tax exposure, admin overhead and risk profile of sole trader vs. limited company at your current and projected income, then guide you to the right structure for your situation.
