Two hats, one company. Paid properly, taxed properly.
You own it and you run it, and the two positions pull in different directions. Profit extraction, VAT, payroll and a director-shareholder position you can explain to anyone who asks.
Established, trading, and nobody has looked at the whole picture in a while
If most of these land, this is the right page. A brand new company belongs on startups; two or more entities belongs on groups.
Not sure this is the right shape?
Tell us how the business is structured and we will point you at the right page — or tell you plainly that another firm is the better fit.
Compliance handled, then the part that actually changes the number
Filing is the floor. The value sits in what you did with the numbers three months earlier, and whether someone qualified told you in time.
Annual accounts & corporation tax
Statutory accounts and the CT600, filed on time, with the tax position reviewed before the year closes rather than after.
See the service →VAT, returns & MTD
The right scheme, quarterly filing that is not a fire drill, and digital records HMRC will accept.
Talk to us →Payroll, PAYE & benefits
Monthly payroll, auto-enrolment, expenses and benefits, including the move to payrolled benefits from April 2027.
Talk to us →Profit extraction & remuneration
Salary, dividends and pension modelled on your own figures, then reviewed each year rather than set once.
Talk to us →Bookkeeping & management accounts
Numbers you can act on, not just archive. Monthly or quarterly, with someone who reads them before you do.
Talk to us →Company secretarial & ID verification
Confirmation statements, registers and filings, with directors and PSCs verified as Companies House now requires.
Talk to us →Owner and employee are not the same person, tax-wise
Most of the money in an owner-managed company is decided by how value comes out of it, not by how the accounts are drafted. These are the levers, and they are reviewed annually rather than assumed.
Scoped, priced, then started
You will know the number before we start
Every engagement is scoped before it is priced. You get one figure for the work, with what is included and what is not written down beside it, agreed before anything starts. Never hourly, so a difficult question does not raise the bill. Never a percentage of a claim or a relief.
What it comes to depends on how the business is built — how you take profit, how many on the payroll, and whether VAT is in the picture. That is a short conversation, not a list price.

A short set of questions about structure, people and where you trade. We come back with a scope and a fixed price. If we are not the right firm for you, we will say so rather than quote for it.
