Recommend an accountant?

[richardz]

Hi Silverfly,

I run a contracting business also and I use Zenon Tax based in Kent. I switched over to them after being a cheap number cruncher for a while because I wanted a better level of service and an accountant who could speak to me in plain english - not techical jargon.

If this is what you're after then give them a try. The main contact is a chap called Richard Price.

Hi,



You can try Staff.com. I’ve been getting good accountants from them since last year and in total I was able to hire 3 good accountants for my accounting business. Good thing with them is you can do a 10-hour trial if you really want their staff to prove their skills but so far I don’t have regrets/complaints from them.

Thanks guys. I've changed to sole trader and after I've recovered from a health problem, and moved house, I'll look for an accountant who can work with FreeAgent.

Definitely, An accountant can help you to decide budget and finance for your business. He can assist you in analyzing your financial statements, looking for problem areas or ways you could improve your financial management.

Why don't you let Accountant Auctions find you an accountant. They seem to have some pretty good accountants on their books.

Hi,

I am a sole director of a newly formed limited company with no intention of employing anyone in the foreseeable future.

At the moment, I'll be doing about 30 hours of freelancing a week, and whilst doing that I will be building side projects for extra income streams, such as online store, blogging, information products, etc, and being entrepreneurial, I'll likely have my fingers in other pies soon enough!

I was looking at Crunch and Forbes Young as they are both contractor accountancy services, but with Crunch, they don't support online stores, etc for some odd reason. So that's kind of ruled them out for the future. I haven't yet spoken to Forbes Young for a quote, etc.

I wondered if any of you contractors or freelancers can recommend a good accountant you've worked with (or are still working with if you're happy with them!).

Please note, I'm not asking for the accountants on here to come and PM me or promote themselves in this thread.

For now I'm only interested in recommendations from freelancers/contractors/consultants.

Thanks in advance.

A friend of mine recommended 1st Contact Accounting. I understand these guys specialize with anything limited company related
