For Business

Audit & Assurance

Whether you’re above or below the audit threshold, our high-quality services can provide you with expert knowledge and dependable insights that benefit your business decision making.

Our accountants are fully trained in developments in auditing standards and the use of our paperless audit software. Reports can also be produced if your company doesn’t require a full external audit but needs some form of assurance on your financial statements. We’ll always deliver information in a way that’s easy for you and your stakeholders to understand and act on.

Working together

We were one of the first accounting firms to use computers back in the 1960s and we keep ourselves ahead of the game.

Although we’re always looking to exploit the latest technology in audit and assurance – including AI – we never forget that what makes us stand out is the effort we make to get to know you and your business personally, so that we can provide clear, pragmatic, understandable advice that you can act on. By building long-term, constructive relationships with you we make your experience of audit a positive one, and provide commercial, forward-thinking recommendations to support your business.
