Accounting & Business Support: flexible, ad-hoc help when you need it

Sometimes you don’t need a full package, you just need a steady hand to check something, sense-check a decision, or fix a knotty issue and move on. Our Accounting & Business Support service gives owner-managed businesses across Huddersfield and Yorkshire exactly that: practical, on-tap support you can dip into as needed.

How it works

Because of UK anti-money laundering rules, all clients must register before we can advise. The process is straightforward: basic ID checks, a short onboarding questionnaire and an engagement letter so we’re both clear on scope. Once set up, you can choose how to pay:

• Pay-as-you-go: a modest registration fee, then ad-hoc support billed as used.

• Monthly subscription: a predictable fee with priority access and agreed response times.

No jargon, no long tie-ins, just honest rates and clear billing.

What we can help with

• Check your bookkeeping entries in QuickBooks/Xero: journals, bank recs, supplier/customer balances, fixed assets.

• VAT: review returns before filing, resolve oddities (mixed rates, EC trade, partial exemption), and help with MTD submissions.

• Sounding board for decisions: Pricing tweaks, payment terms, cashflow pinch points, whether that new kit stacks up.

• HMRC and Companies House admin: PAYE, CIS queries, confirmation statements, year-end checklists.

• Light automation: tidy imports, streamline spreadsheets, and reduce manual rekeying.

• One-off “clean-ups” if the numbers have drifted and you need the slate straight.

If something falls outside ad-hoc scope, funding, complex restructuring, or a full management reporting refresh, we’ll say so and outline a sensible project approach.

What you can expect

• Straight answers, plain English. We’ll tell you what’s right, what’s risky and what to do next.

• Practical turnaround. Email, phone or video, whatever gets it solved quickest. Urgent help by arrangement.

• Owner-friendly documentation. Short notes and checklists you can reuse, not a pile of slides.

• Good governance. Proper records, secure data handling, and advice that aligns with HMRC and accounting standards.

Whether it’s a 20-minute check before you hit “submit”, or regular back-up for your in-house bookkeeper, we fit around you. If you’d like to register, we’ll get the AML checks done quickly and have support in place so you can
