The accounting partner for creative minds

Helping small business owners take control of their finances.

Scotch Accounting is a chartered accountancy practice providing support to start up, small and growing businesses.

We do more than bookkeeping, accounts and tax returns. We help you make sense of the numbers, plan for the future, and achieve your goals.

Our aim is to give you clarity and confidence in your numbers, so you can make the best decisions for your business.

We specialise in supporting creative, ecommerce & healthcare businesses

Who we help

We are inspired by the passion, energy and determination of small business owners. You create the things we wear, the things we watch, the things we read, how we work, how we play, how we live.

But we know how hard it is to run a business and we want to help support you on your journey. Our job is to help you make the most of your finances, helping you understand and have confidence in your numbers.

We can support you at every step of your journey

If your business isn’t ready to employ a finance team, we can be that support, wherever you are on your journey.

  • Of course. We love start ups and believe that helping business owners to get their finances in order from the start will set them up for future success. All businesses should have a plan, a budget, ways to forecast and manage cashflow, and as a foundation good financial record keeping.

    We can even help you turn your ‘side hustle’ to your ‘main hustle’.

  • We don’t offer every service, such as auditing, but we offer a comprehensive range suitable for start up and small businesses.

    Our services page has a range of packages suitable for businesses at different stages of their life cycle.
