Accountancy services, delivered with a personal touch.

At Sam Oliver Accountants, we offer a full range of accountancy and compliance services for individuals and businesses across Northumberland and beyond. Every service is delivered personally – you’ll always deal directly with Sam, never passed from person to person.

We know that too many business owners have struggled to even speak to their accountant – let alone feel truly understood by them. At Sam Oliver Accountants, it’s different. We take the time to know your business properly, treat it with the care we’d give our own, and stay genuinely involved all year round. That’s not a promise – it’s just how we work.

Accountancy Services

Year End Accounts

We prepare and submit accurate, well-presented accounts and take the time to talk you through your figures. Get a clear understanding, not just a set of documents.

  • For limited companies, sole traders, partnerships and LLPs
  • Submission to Companies House and HMRC where required
  • Clear, plain-English explanation of your results

Management Accounts

Waiting until year end to understand your financial position is too late. Regular management accounts give you the visibility to make confident, timely decisions.

  • Monthly, quarterly, or semi-annual management accounts
  • Cash flow forecasts and budget planning
  • Accounting software setup and training (Xero, QuickBooks, and others)

Corporation & Personal Tax

For individuals and directors, we prepare and submit your self-assessment and/or corporation tax returns to HMRC, making the process as straightforward as possible.

  • Corporation tax return preparation and submission
  • Self-assessment income tax returns
  • Advice on tax-efficient remuneration and planning

VAT Returns

VAT rules change frequently, and the consequences of getting them wrong can be costly. We prepare your VAT returns accurately and on time, and can advise on the most appropriate VAT scheme for your business.

  • VAT return preparation and submission to HMRC
  • VAT registration and deregistration
  • Support with VAT queries, schemes and HMRC correspondence

Company Secretarial

Keeping up with Companies House deadlines and statutory requirements is an essential but often overlooked part of running a limited company. We handle the administrative side, so nothing slips through the net.

  • Annual confirmation statement submission
  • Director and shareholder changes filed with Companies House
  • Registered office and company record updates

Payroll & CIS

Getting payroll right and CIS is important for your employees and for HMRC. We run your payroll accurately each month, handle all Real Time Information (RTI) submissions, and make sure your team is paid correctly and on time.

  • Monthly payroll processing and HMRC submissions
  • Payslips, P60s, and year-end returns
  • Monthly CIS returns – contractor and subcontractor
