TAX

We connect the technical and commercial dots to help you get on top of compliance and mitigate future risk, while maximising relief and funding opportunities.

TALKING TAX

Our interconnected Tax team looks at your business and any challenges through multiple lenses, including tax advisory, shareholder tax, wealth management, outsourcing and corporate finance.

Getting on top of Tax has a direct impact, not only on a business’s existence and buoyancy, but also its ability to compete and grow.

There’s a certain breadth of expertise that we as advisers need to support businesses as well as prepare them for the future. We also need to be proactive in addressing Tax affairs to make sure our clients don’t miss out on big planning opportunities.

We’re a fast-growing, entrepreneurial business, and that’s our natural client sweet spot. They love us because we’re not too big to provide the individual attention and close relationship that they need, and we’re not too small to take on large-scale Tax projects. They choose us because our approach to Tax services is holistic, looking at both business and individual shareholder needs across compliance and advice.

Managing Tax risk, why it should be a priority

It may not be the glitziest side of a well-oiled business, but it’s hugely important. Failing to integrate tax considerations into all your key strategic decisions can put the brakes on your plans, leave holes in your strategy, and open up your business to risk.

TUNE UP YOUR TAX STRATEGY

By shifting tax from an afterthought to a driving force and optimising your tax position, you’ll better prepare your business for any economic or policy changes on the horizon, as well as significant events like mergers, acquisitions or sale.

Easier said than done? Maybe. We’ve spoken to hundreds of FDs and shareholders across the UK mid-market. We appreciate you often lack the time, resource, or a tight-knit tailored service from your tax adviser to make it happen. So, we’ve built a holistic tax offering to set that straight.

With a full suite of tax and advisory services, we can become your whole in-house finance team, an integral part, or an extension of it, looking at your business and shareholder aspirations through multiple lenses.

We’ll help you structure your business optimally, make sure tax always has a seat at the table, and help you highlight, manage and mitigate tax risk on all fronts.

While tax strategy will be unique to individual businesses, we’ve noticed 5 key red flags for you to look out for.

Reviews

NIGEL, JAN 25

MARTIN, JAN 26

”Very good, very receptive , very pragmatic which is very welcome from an auditor.”

GREGORY, JAN 25

ANDY, MARCH 26

“We used the payroll service, and whilst it may seem strange that having recently changed to another provider, to give a 4 star rating, the move was simply because of commercial considerations ( the new provider becoming a sponsor of the football team). The service we had from yourselves was excellent in being exceptionally flexible given our own issues with not always giving timely details for the weekly wage comps, altering them after first draft of payroll etc. Staff often made themselves available outside office hours to complete the payment process.”

RYAN, MARCH 26

“Great team with knowledge experts that are brilliant at rallying together when there is an urgent topic that needs covering – however fees are slightly expensive vs. LFL providers/legal firms”

GUY, MARCH 26

“Always very helpful staff in terms of explaining and walking through processes with us. The audit and tasks are completed on time”

SEAN, MARCH 26

“The communication from Jess, Jo and Glen has been superb. They are all very approachable and it’s a pleasure to work with them. I also find the online portal Inflo to be very user friendly and easy to use. Communication with the more junior members of the team can sometimes be a bit of a challenge if they aren’t fully certain on the questions they ask however this is completely understandable with them being at the start of their career journey. They are also very approachable and keen to ensure the correct outcome is reached.”

JP, JAN 26

”From the audit & tax side – We have had a great experience, and the teams are always willing to help, they are knowledgeable and willing to ensure we get what we need from them. However, one new addition to CP is the joining of 3RP – we have not had a good experience with them, they were brought on to help with our NetSuite inventory flows, this was unsuccessful and we have decided to scrap the whole project as they weren’t able to solve our issue and getting the focus we needed from them just wasn’t there.”

BRENT, JAN 26

“Georgia Gritton is our trusted advisor, responsive and loyal to us.”

ANGELA, FEB 26

“Always available to help, with understanding and patience. Advice is personalised and no question or query too small or insignificant.”
