Who we help
Common questions in specialist sectors
In addition to local teams, we have teams that specialise by sector. Understanding the metrics, the tax relief, and the funding routes saves time explaining your business model to your accountant. We know what works.
Common eCommerce Problems
“Sales are up 40% — so why is there never any cash?”
Marketplace fees, inventory and cross-border VAT reconciled automatically, so you see true margin by SKU and channel.
Tech, SaaS & AI Team
“Are our metrics actually ready for investor diligence?”
MRR, deferred revenue and board-grade reporting — with SEIS/EIS, EMI and R&D handled under the same roof.
Professional Services
“Which of our projects actually make money?”
Utilisation, WIP and lock-up tracked as standard, with project-level margin reporting every month.
