For businesses with more to think about

You run the business.
Let's make the
numbers work for you.

A team to pay. VAT to manage. Decisions to make. When there is more to your business than an annual return, your accounting support needs to reflect that.

01

Know where you stand.

Clearer information about your business, explained in language that makes sense.

02

Look ahead, not just back.

Consider the accounting and tax implications before the next decision is made.

03

Have a proper conversation.

Practical advice that starts with understanding you and the way your business works.

Thinking of changing accountants?

A considered handover.
Clear from the start.

If your business has grown, communication has become unclear or the current arrangement no longer fits, we can talk through what needs to change.

Discuss changing accountants
01 / DISCUSS

Tell us what you need.

We look at the business, current arrangements and what you want to work better.

02 / AGREE

Set the scope.

We agree the services, responsibilities and fees before the engagement begins.

03 / AUTHORISE

Make contact.

With your authority, we contact the existing accountant for the professional handover.

04 / REVIEW

Check the position.

We review the records, systems and any outstanding or in progress work.

05 / COORDINATE

Plan the handover.

We explain the next steps and coordinate the move around the work already under way.

The timing depends on the records available and any deadlines or work already in progress. We will explain what can happen, and when.

A few useful answers

Before we
get started.

A little clarity on working with SOJA.

Ask us a question
Is SOJA right for my business?
We focus on business owners who want organised accounts and tax, with the option of ongoing support. Tell us about your business and the help you need, and we will discuss whether we are the right fit.
Can you help me change accountants?
Yes. We agree the scope and timing with you, then contact your previous accountant with your permission. The handover will depend on your current position and any work already in progress.
How are your fees agreed?
We provide a proposal based on the services you need, your records and the level of support involved. You can see what is included before deciding to go ahead. Additional work is agreed separately.
Do I need to be based in Bristol?
No. SOJA is based in Bristol and works with businesses across the UK. We can discuss how to share information securely and keep in touch in a way that suits the engagement.
