Who looks after your company

I'm Spencer Elbert, and I run SJE Capital. I have worked in finance for over 8 years, and I am ICB Certified, a Xero Certified Advisor and hold the CIMA Diploma in Management Accounting.

Your books are kept up to date in Xero every month, so your figures are ready when you need to make a decision and ready for HMRC when a return is due. Automation handles the repetitive work, and I check every number myself before anything is filed.

You deal directly with me: one point of contact who knows your business, your numbers and your deadlines.

Before you get started

The practical things directors ask before they move to us.

Can I switch accountant part-way through the year?

Yes. You do not need to wait for your year end. We contact your previous accountant and HMRC for you, and make sure no deadline is missed during the handover. How switching works.

What is included in the fixed fee?

Every plan includes monthly bookkeeping, VAT returns, payroll, your annual accounts and your own Self Assessment return. Larger plans add management accounts and tax planning. Everything is set out in a written engagement letter before any work starts. See the plans.

Do I need to use Xero?

We run our clients' books in Xero. If you use spreadsheets or other software, we move you across as part of taking you on. Xero bookkeeping explained.

How quickly can you start?

Straight away. Most switches are complete within two to four weeks, mostly spent waiting for HMRC's authorisation codes to arrive in the post.

Do you work with sole traders?

We work only with limited companies and their directors. If you are a sole trader thinking about setting up a company, we can help you check whether it is right for you.
