We have served clients across a broad range of industries, from manufacturing and engineering to professional services, hospitality and technology. Our experience also includes charities, not-for-profit organisations and UK subsidiaries of overseas groups.
The sector provides a starting point. We then examine how your organisation earns income, funds its activities and meets its reporting responsibilities, so the work reflects the business behind the accounts.
Manufacturing and industrial businesses
Our experience includes manufacturing, engineering and the automobile sector. Stock, production costs, capital investment and contract delivery can all affect the financial picture. Understanding how the business operates helps identify the accounting judgements and information that need attention.
Food import and distribution
We have worked with food import, manufacturing and wholesale businesses. Stock movements, supplier terms, customer receipts and the cost of delivery can place pressure on margins and cash. Reporting needs to make those relationships clear.
Professional and financial services
Our experience includes solicitors, professional services firms, financial services businesses and mortgage brokers. Fee and commission income, work in progress, collection periods and reporting obligations need to be understood in the context of each business.
Technology and telecommunications
We have served IT and telecommunications businesses, where contract terms, recurring income, project delivery and investment can shape both reporting and commercial decisions. The starting point is understanding the revenue model and the evidence supporting the numbers.
Entertainment and hospitality
Our experience includes entertainment, travel and hotels. Seasonal trading, advance receipts, project expenditure and property commitments can make the timing of income and cash particularly important. We take those features into account when understanding the organisation and agreeing the work.
Property and construction
We have worked with property and construction businesses. Project costs, work in progress, valuations, financing and the timing of receipts can introduce significant judgement. Clear supporting information helps management and advisers address the reporting implications.
Energy and resources
Our experience includes oil and gas businesses. Capital expenditure, funding, group structures and the assumptions supporting asset values can require careful consideration. We establish the relevant reporting responsibilities and significant questions early in the engagement.
Healthcare education and the not for profit sector
We have served healthcare and education organisations, charities and other not-for-profit entities. Income sources, funding conditions, governance and the capacity of the finance team shape the reporting work. For charities, our services focus on audit and financial reporting, including the consideration of restricted funds and trustee responsibilities.

Overseas ownership adds another layer of responsibility. Local statutory requirements, group reporting instructions, intercompany balances and different deadlines need to be coordinated with the people responsible for each part of the work.
We agree the UK scope and clarify how it relates to the group timetable, including any separately agreed reporting to the parent or group auditor.
