Stephenson Smart are Chartered Accountants and Business Advisors.  We act as accountants and auditors for a number of corporate clients.

What support do we provide as corporate accountants

At your level of business, you are likely to have employed finance specialists who will oversee your management accounts and payroll but may not be qualified to advise on tax compliance and tax planning.

You may also need to be audited. An audit can bring reassurance to its stakeholders, both internally and externally, with banks, grant providers, potential buyers and sellers, and other financial organisations placing far greater reliance on the figures than if the accounts are unaudited.

If your company does not require an audit, but you would like a higher level of scrutiny in certain areas than normal, we can offer assurance services tailored to meet your needs.

At Stephenson Smart we are experts in supporting larger businesses to fulfil their full potential and run smoothly by supporting them with tax planning, business structure, VAT and succession planning as well as tax compliance and audit.

“When you’re in business, it’s very reassuring to have the Stephenson Smart team on your side. They offer a huge amount of expertise that we are able to access quickly and easily to support our day-to-day operations and long term strategy.

What’s particularly refreshing is the way they deliver expert services and professional guidance in such a friendly and approachable way.”

Steve Scott, Manager Director, TMS Media, Great Yarmouth
