Brookes and Company Accounts are notable for the specialist services they offer to small and medium sized firms. Brookes will act as an out-sourced accounts team doing as much or as little as each client requires to keep their business running in an orderly fashion. This is a very cost-effective solution for smaller firms where employing an in-house team in not a sensible option, but it works well for larger businesses too. The team at Brookes will manage payments, receipts and debtors, create reports on a weekly, monthly and annual basis, manage payroll, expenses, commissions and VAT returns, and prepare the management accounts. They will also, if required, produce contracts, write specialist reports on request, and prepare quarterly European VAT returns.

There are a team of eight working under Colin in the Accountancy team.

"We always look to give our clients good advice, just as any other accountant would. However, unlike many other firms, we don’t just take a ‘snapshot’ approach, talking to people once a year. We tend to be involved throughout the yearto give ongoing best practice advice where needed to help grow our clients’ businesses."
Colin Barker, Director
