"We’ve been using The Accounts Team for the past 6 months now. We started our company in June 2023 and made a lot of the mistakes a new company make; believing we could do it all ourselves to save money while building up our business. After 6-8 months we realised we required help and were introduced to Ruth and The Accounts Team through a mutual acquaintance who spoke very highly of their services.
Initially, I will admit, I was a bit sceptical. It was an extra cost I felt we didn’t need at the start of our journey but can honestly say the team are professional, excellent at communicating with our customers and help to keep the cash coming in on time. As well as arming us with all upcoming payments, producing sales / profit reports and filing our VAT returns on time. They also introduced us to an equally knowledgeable accountant. We at ARC Building Supplies Ltd can wholeheartedly say they have helped us immensely by adding structure and procedures that we follow to help make our business thrive."

"A superb small practice, with reach into the EU. INS Group has grown significantly in the last 6 years. Ruth and her team have been key to everything that we have achieved, including the setup and financial management of our relatively new Dutch entity. Without The Accounts Team behind us, the seemingly impossible may have been more of a reality. Nice, normal people who always manage to pull lots of rabbits out of lots of hats! A well known mentor, coach and visionary once said “if you surround yourself with positive people who build you up, the sky is the limit". This is certainly true of the relationship that we have enjoyed with Ruth and her team for 6 years."

"The Accounts Team have been working with iOpener since 2020 and have offered incredible value to our business. They helped us deliver many strategic changes: from upgrading our finance systems to streamlining our processes and improving our reporting. They also helped us navigate the ambiguity of a global pandemic. All in all, outsourcing some of our accounting work to The Accounts Team has made our organisation more agile and time efficient. They have consistently demonstrated expertise and a willingness to get stuck in and support. In many ways, The Accounts Team has become an integral part of how we work - they are an extension of the service and experience we offer to our clients. What we perhaps appreciate most about working with The Accounts Team is the close relationship we have developed with them over the years. As a small business, they know their clients through and through and their style is warm and personable yet always professional. We really consider them to be part of our extended business family."

"The Accounts Team have been a trusted partner since the inception of our company. They have seamlessly provided all levels of accounting service over this period, flexing their service as the needs of the organisation have changed. They can be relied upon to provide a first class service across a whole range of accounting tasks appropriate to SME’s. We have absolute faith in their service and know that we can rely on them to be accurate and timely as well as a scalable resource both for short term staff cover and for more strategic changes in requirements. I would have no hesitation in recommending them as a valued finance resource and partner."

"Ruth has been the bookkeeper for two of my clients since 2009. The Accounts Team now cover all aspects of the daily financials for them, including payroll & month end reporting. We have monthly virtual meetings to discuss their financial position & analyse the company reports. The Accounts Team always produce accurate, timely & valuable data in a clear format for our client to understand. Which in turn, helps to arm the business owners with information to make quick decisions & plan for the future. As an Accountant, receiving such organised financials makes my role, especially at year-end, a lot easier. It reduces the number of queries raised and any need for re-allocations. The Accounts Team are a pleasure to work with & I would highly recommend them to any SME looking for an end-to-end finance solution."

"Ruth and the team at The Accounts Team, have been the bookkeepers for one of my clients for a number of years. The accounts prior to The Accounts Team taking over were a little challenging to say the least. Since the change in bookkeepers the difference is astounding. The attention to detail is second to none, the reconciliation work etc is easy to follow and the xero account well presented. The accounts are a pleasure to prepare and the process much more efficient. Ruth is normally part of the year end meeting which means that any queries (which are normally few and far between) can be resolved quickly and easily. I would highly recommend The Accounts Team to any businesses looking to outsource their bookkeeping services."

"At NotGames, we've found both the service and people working at the Accounts Team to be nothing short of impeccable. With no real experience or training in-house to deal with the official formalities of annual budgets and monthly running costs, it was vital for us to bring in a team that could help. The Accounts Team not only fit seamlessly within our structure, but have helped us upskill on financing software to get a better day-to-day understanding of our finances and much more effectively manage our expenditure and visibility across Company budgets. The team are friendly, helpful and willing to accommodate the nuances of a business' individual needs, and we would heartily recommend them to anyone looking for the benefits of an in-house financial team without needing to hire full-time staff internally to achieve it."
Andy Murray, NotGames, Director

The Accounts Team often go way over and above their contract with us, and all my team appreciate their hard work and dedication.

"We have been working with The Accounts Team for over a decade and wouldn't be where we are today without their consistent help and hard work. Our accounts were in a bit of a mess when we first started working with Ruth. Thankfully, this was swiftly addressed, and they have been immaculately maintained ever since. This precision makes it straightforward for us to locate and interpret our data when needed. Over the years, we've have seen The Accounts Team grow and rebrand. I believe this progression is a testament to their outstanding abilities. Every member of their team is friendly, professional, responsive, and highly skilled. Besides handling our bookkeeping, team members often participate in—and frequently lead—our finance meetings. They're also integral to many of our management meetings, offering higher-level advice and insights that have been vital for our business's growth. We have full confidence that our accounts are in the best hands with The Accounts Team and wouldn't contemplate looking elsewhere. If you desire top-tier account management and a team that's genuinely pleasant to work with, I can't recommend them highly enough."

"I would like to thank Ruth from the bottom of my heart for all the help (sometimes very stressful, I can imagine) that she has given me over the years as our Bookkeeper. Remembering when we first met, I was doing the books by hand and I remember thinking who is this person, who thinks I can change to online book work. Well, after loads of help with Sage, I mastered it, which was only possible with the assistance of Ruth. Then years down the line, Ruth suggested moving over to Xero, again, I struggled, but with her patience I managed it. Over all this time, she has never got stressed with me and through her patience and time I have got through it all.
The Accounts Team has been helping us for well over 10 years and through that time I have always them very professional, patient and very understanding (which you need to be for me, as maths has never been my favourite thing in life!) I would always recommend Ruth and her team to anyone looking for a bookkeeping service, either to a friend or on social media, and I am looking forward to working with them for the next 10 years and beyond!"

"I’ve had the pleasure of working with Ruth and her team for over 10 years. During that time, I’ve always been impressed by her commitment, hard work and ability to remain calm in any situation. Working with The Accounts Team has been a great experience and alongside Ruth's considerable expertise, she brings with her a talent for interpersonal relationships and communication, that you don’t find just anywhere.”
