CHANGING YOUR ADVISER

A better relationship.
A considered transition.

Changing advisers should start with a clear understanding of what needs to improve—and a realistic plan to protect the work already in progress.

WHEN IT MAY BE TIME

Recognise any of these?

You keep chasing

Important questions remain unanswered, and you are unsure who owns the next step.

The business is outgrowing the advice

Your structure, reporting or commercial decisions have become more complex than the support you receive.

The same problems return

Late requests, unclear scope or repeated explanations make each year feel like starting again.

A STRUCTURED HANDOVER

Know what changes.
And who is responsible.

01 / UNDERSTAND

Start with your priorities

We discuss the service issues, deadlines, outstanding work and support your organisation needs.

02 / AGREE

Make the scope clear

Subject to acceptance and independence checks, we agree responsibilities, fees and a realistic transition timetable.

03 / TRANSITION

Coordinate the handover

With your authorisation, we liaise with your existing adviser and identify the records and information required. Auditor appointments also need the appropriate formal steps.

CHANGING YOUR AUDITOR?

Understand the handover before you move.

Our practical guide explains appointment, first-year costs and what your finance team needs to prepare.

Client experience

Clear communication through a recurring audit

After using Accendo as the company’s auditor for several years, Wendy highlighted clear communication, a constructive audit experience and adherence to agreed timetables.

“I have used Accendo as my company auditor for a few years now. Communication is always clear and helpful, I feel audited at the end of the process, in a positive way, and they keep to any agreed timetable. I definitely recommend them.”
