Our Capabilities

One firm, three disciplines.

Deep technical expertise across accounting, tax, and company secretarial services — the full range, in detail.

01

CHASEACCOUNTING

Leveraging your data and our technology to add real value to your financial reporting — combining high-quality accounting and compliance with tailored business insights.

Financial Reporting

Annual Accounts

Year-end accounts for self-employed persons, contractors, landlords, partnerships, limited liability partnerships, companies, charities, and trusts — prepared and filed with HMRC and Companies House as required.

Management Accounts

Monthly, quarterly, or annual management accounts — giving you the financial information you need to secure loans and mortgages, plan ahead with confidence, and know exactly how much to set aside for tax.

Financial Planning

Financial Forecasts

Creating, managing, and updating a rolling 12-month three-way forecast — covering profit and loss, cash flow, and the balance sheet — to give your board and team a shared view of where the business is heading. A clear forecast also strengthens your position for raising debt or equity.

Cash Flow Forecast

Creating a rolling 13-week cash flow forecast — helping you spot surplus cash early, so you can make confident decisions about investment, hiring, inventory, or drawing funds from the business. It also gives investors and lenders confidence that the business is generating cash.

Money MOT

A comprehensive assessment of your business's financial health — covering your financial statements, cash flow, profitability, and tax position — with practical recommendations to help you address any issues identified.

Bookkeeping

Bank Reconciliation

Regularly reconciling bank accounts, credit cards, and merchant accounts — keeping your receivables, payables, accruals, and prepayments accurate and up to date.

Sales Management

Creating sales invoices, checking credit customers' payment history, allocating invoices to the correct revenue codes, ensuring VAT is correctly charged, and sending invoices out to your clients.

Purchases Management

Recording supplier invoices, allocating them to the correct nominal codes, verifying VAT treatment, and preparing payment schedules.

Debtors Management

Managing your debtors' ageing report, sending payment reminders, flagging customers with a history of late payment, and chasing overdue invoices — helping to improve your cash flow, reduce reliance on borrowing, and minimise bad debts.

Creditors Management

Managing your creditors' ageing report, reconciling supplier statements, preparing payment schedules, setting up payments for your approval, and ensuring every supplier is paid on time.

Payroll & CIS

Payroll & Pension Management

Weekly, fortnightly, or monthly PAYE administration — covering RTI filings, payslips, P45, P60, P11D and P46(Car) forms, National Insurance and pension contributions, auto-enrolment, payrolling benefits-in-kind (BiKs), tronc schemes, and PAYE Settlement Agreements (PSAs).

CIS for Contractors

Registering contractors for CIS, verifying subcontractors' CIS status, calculating deductions on payments to subcontractors, preparing CIS payment and deduction statements, and filing monthly CIS returns with HMRC.

CIS for Subcontractors

Registering subcontractors for CIS — so deductions are made at 20% rather than 30% — and applying for CIS tax refunds on their behalf.

CIS Gross Payment Status

Registering subcontractors for 'gross payment status' — so payments are received without any deduction — and advising on how to maintain that status, since HMRC reviews it annually.

Other

Cloud Accounting System

Choosing and implementing the right accounting software for your business, and training your team to take the lead in managing your finances.
