Who We Help

Hiring an accountant isn’t just about ticking compliance boxes – it’s about unlocking insights, saving time and keeping more money in your pocket to drive your business forward:

1. Expertise at Your Fingertips: With ever-changing rules and regulations, accountants bring deep knowledge of tax laws, financial standards and industry trends. They’ll help you stay compliant, manage risks and tackle those tricky financial challenges with confidence.
2. Time to Focus on What Matters: Outsourcing your accounting to a UK based specialist allows you to reclaim your time and give you the freedom to grow your business, safe in the knowledge that your finances are in good hands.
3. Peace of Mind: Let’s face it, managing finances and keeping on top of accounting tasks can be stressful. With an accountant in your corner, you can rest easy knowing everything’s being done correctly and on time.
4. Tax Efficient strategies: While we can’t guarantee massive tax savings, we can promise to maximize your deductions, offer advice on smarter financial structures and help you avoid paying more than you need to.
5. Clearer Numbers, Better Decisions: With accurate financial reports and access to expert advice, you will have a clearer view of your cash flow, profits and overall financial health, as well as be better equipped to make smart business decisions and plan for long-term success.
6. Flexibility to Suit Your Needs: Whether you need a bit of support here and there or a full-time helping hand, accountants offer flexible services that grow with your business.

If you feel your current accountant can no longer meet your needs, you don’t feel you are getting the support you deserve or you are just looking for a change, we would love to welcome you to Cadence Accounting.

While switching accountants may sound daunting, its actually incredibly simple – we do it regularly for clients and have it down to a fine art, making it a seamless process for you:

1. Research your options: It’s an important decision so do your research first to make sure you can find an accountant that can support you at every stage of your business journey, especially if you are planning to grow. We often meet new clients who initially partnered with an accountant well suited to their early needs. However, as their business has grown and evolved, they find they have quickly outgrown their current accountant’s capabilities and require more advanced support to navigate their growth journey. If you think Cadence Accounting might be the right fit, we would love to chat – get in touch.
2. Consider timing: Once you have found the right partner, think about when is the best time to switch. Does your contract include a notice period? (We don’t have a notice period because we believe that if you aren’t getting what you need from us, you shouldn’t be tied in.) Would it be best to switch at your business’ financial year-end or do we need to manage a transition mid-year? Switching after year-end is typically simplest, as it allows your current accountant to finalise filings for the year. However, switching mid-year is entirely possible with a bit of planning to ensure a smooth transition – we transition many clients mid-year, usually just working around the VAT quarter end if appropriate.
3. Inform your current accountant: When you’re ready to make the change, there’s very little you actually need to do yourself. Most new clients prefer to let their current accountant know of the switch themselves, while others prefer us to handle the communication on their behalf – whatever works best for you. It’s good practice to do this in writing and let them know your new accountant (hopefully us!) will be in touch. If you would like us to do it on your behalf, we will handle it professionally through a letter or email.
4. Engage us: Our onboarding process is simple and can be completed electronically. We will send you an engagement letter which is a document that outlines our relationship. We’ll also need a copy of photo ID and proof of address. Once done, we’ll have the necessary permissions to liaise with your previous accountant and take over your accounts seamlessly.
5. Leave the rest to us: We’ll handle the rest. We’ll send a professional clearance letter to your current accountant, requesting all relevant information (tax filings, bookkeeping records, etc.) and any work that’s already been completed for the current year. With everything in place, we’ll have you up and running in no time.

Fun and empowering! We aim to be more than your average accountant. We’re here to be your trusted advisor, dedicated to helping you succeed and achieve your goals, no matter the challenge and regardless of your objectives. Our approach is rooted in our core values:

Great question!

For Ryan, our founder, the mountains symbolise stunning natural beauty, offer escape and mental clarity and represent a constant sense of challenge, adventure and personal growth.

But perhaps more importantly for both Ryan and us at Cadence, the mountains are a powerful reminder of the sense of accomplishment that comes not only from reaching a summit or overcoming a challenging obstacle but from pushing yourself along the journey to be your best.

This mindset shapes everything we do – ensuring we tackle challenges head-on and embrace the journey as much as the destination.

If you share these values and are looking for a partner to help you achieve your own summits, we’d love to hear from you.

Let’s tackle the climb together!
