Accountant for freelancers — irregular income, multiple clients and tax, all handled
Freelancing means lumpy income, lots of clients and tax nobody is sorting but you. We handle your books, your Self Assessment and your tax planning — so you can take on work, not paperwork.
- Fixed monthly fee
- A named accountant
- UK-wide, fully online
Everything you need
One team, one fixed fee
- Self Assessment. Your tax return prepared and filed, every allowable expense claimed.
- Bookkeeping Services. Your income and expenses kept clean in the cloud — no spreadsheet chaos.
- Tax planning. What to set aside, and when going limited or VAT-registered pays.
- VAT returns. VAT registration and returns handled if and when you cross the threshold.
The bits no one warns you about
Most freelancers are sole traders to begin with, and the tax doesn’t take care of itself. Irregular income makes it hard to know what to set aside, and it’s easy to either overpay — by missing expenses — or get a January shock.
Then there’s the bigger questions: when does it pay to go limited? Do you need to register for VAT? Are you claiming your home office, software and equipment correctly? Guess wrong and it costs you.
- Income that arrives in lumps — hard to plan tax around
- Juggling invoices and chasing late-paying clients
- Not knowing which expenses you can actually claim
- The 31 January Self Assessment panic, every year
- Unsure whether to stay sole trader or go limited
- No idea if (or when) you should register for VAT
Everything handled, under one roof
Freelancing gives you freedom — and a pile of admin no one warns you about. Income arrives in bursts, you’re invoicing several clients at once, chasing late payers, and somewhere in there a tax bill is quietly building up.
We give freelancers a dedicated accountant who handles the lot: your bookkeeping, your expenses, your Self Assessment and the planning to keep your bill down — for one simple fixed monthly fee, with cloud software included.

The honest answers to what you’re thinking
Do freelancers really need an accountant?
There’s no legal requirement, but a freelancer’s mix of irregular income, multiple clients and claimable expenses is exactly where a good accountant pays for themselves — usually saving more in tax and time than the fee.
How much does an accountant for freelancers cost?
We charge a fixed monthly fee agreed up front, with cloud software included — no hourly billing and no surprise invoices. For most freelancers it’s a modest monthly amount that pays for itself.
Should I stay a sole trader or go limited?
It depends on your profit, your clients and your plans. We model both on your actual numbers and tell you honestly which leaves you better off — and handle the switch if it’s worth it.
I’ve got a few years of messy records — can you help?
Yes. We regularly take on freelancers who are behind, get everything tidy and filed, then keep it that way so it never builds up again.
