The Accountants for independent businesses

AIMS are the largest independent association of professionally qualified accountants in the UK specialising in working with SMEs. We offer a local service within a nationwide structure which gives access to the considerable resources of a national
practice without the need to charge inflated costs.
AIMS Accountants understand how to run a business in today’s economic climate. We agree fixed fees in advance and do not charge by the hour; allowing us to establish a genuine relationship with our clients. We take time to get to know our clients and their
business and provide them with essential business support without the concern of a large bill at the end of the year.

Why do you need an AIMS Accountant?

Business owners - we understand what it's like to run your own business. There is so much to do and so little time so while you're busy looking after your customer services, trying to keep ahead of your competition and keeping on top of regulations - the last thing on your mind should be the concern of managing your own accounting and tax. If you are looking for a professional accountant who can look at the best ways of saving you tax, reducing your costs and be available for advice when you need it at no extra charge then look no further, save yourself the headache and let an AIMS Accountant manage your accounting and tax for you.

The AIMS Service

We offer accountancy services across a whole spectrum and you can pick and choose which ones you require. All our fees are individually structured for your specific needs and agreed with you in advance so you don't receive any jaw dropping 'extra' costs. If you can't see the service you want, please contact us to discuss your requirements - if we can't do it we may know someone who can!

AIMS Specialist Areas:

Accounting & Bookkeeping

Some may say it's a constant battle to ensure that your books are kept up to date, your employees are paid promptly and your VAT returns are in on time. Those same people will say 'leave it to the experts'. We provide a comprehensive service to help you manage your finances so that you can concentrate on running your business.

Tax & Tax Planning

The greater the volume of tax law the more chances there are of getting things wrong. In the UK we have the greatest volume of tax law in the world so you have lots of chances of slipping up! We provide advice on all aspects of personal and SME taxation so that you can leave the worry to us.

Regulation & Compliance

An increasing pain in business despite what we are told! More and more mandatory online filing, tighter deadlines and an ever changing regulatory climate make running a business a nightmare. Let us take the strain.

Advice & Support

We are available to give you advice and support regarding any accounting matter. Not only that, as business owners ourselves we can provide you with successful business advice.

All AIMS Accountants know what it's like to run your own business - after all they are doing it themselves. Our accountants go the extra mile and are experienced in offering successful business advice in a way that suits you. We pride ourselves in offering added value because we know good accounting is good business.
