Working as an independent contractor or as the owner of a limited company, you stand to earn substantially more money than an engineer working for a firm.
For this reason, many engineers choose contracting or freelancing work and set their own rates, choose their clients and pick the projects they like the most. Aside from these benefits, the freedom to work only when you want is another great perk of the job. So, the last thing you want is to get tied up in sorting out your finances instead of running your business or enjoying some downtime.
We understand how important it is for you to be financially successful, so we can help you to stay on top of your accounts. Engineering is an ever-demanding, dynamic environment, and working proactively is the only way to ensure your business runs efficiently and effectively.
At Gorilla Accounting, we offer specialised accountancy services for engineers. Our team has an in-depth knowledge and understanding of the industry that will take the stress out of your financial obligations. Engineering contractors are always in demand, so you need to ensure your finances are in working order so you can take on those contracts and provide your clients with what they’re looking for. In addition, because handling the financial side of your business can be time-consuming, let us take care of it for you while you focus on your day-to-day tasks.
Given our experience in working with engineers as contractor accountants, we can offer our all-inclusive accountancy package that is specifically designed with contractors in mind. This low-cost package is only £110 + VAT per month.
You can expect help with VAT returns, HMRC record checks, preparation of self-assessment tax returns, dividend and board minute document, preparation of tax returns, and so much more.
