Before Around
- You chase for answers and updates.
- Your accounts arrive too late to be useful.
- Tax liabilities appear without enough warning.
- Year-end means another document hunt.
- Nobody clearly owns the next action.

The problem we fix
Accounting should reduce stress, not create another job for you.
Most businesses do not change accountant because a return cannot be filed. They change because nobody communicates, the records are not ready and every deadline becomes a last-minute scramble.
With Around
- A named relationship owner keeps work moving.
- Bookkeeping supports a fast year-end close.
- Deadlines are scheduled, tracked and reviewed.
- We retrieve information directly where access allows.
- You meet your team every quarter.
What we handle
The recurring accounting work, properly owned.
One coordinated service covering the records, submissions and conversations a growing business needs throughout the year.
01
Bookkeeping
Reconciliations and dependable records maintained throughout the year, not rebuilt at year-end.
02
Annual accounts
Clean underlying records support a quicker, competitively priced year-end turnaround.
03
Tax compliance
Corporation tax and related compliance managed by our dedicated tax and compliance team.
04
VAT and payroll
Recurring submissions coordinated to agreed timetables with issues raised before the deadline.

Quarterly reviews
Every client meets with their team every quarter to review the numbers and agree priorities.

Who this is for
Built for businesses that have outgrown reactive accounting.
Around works best with founder-led Irish businesses that want the recurring finance process owned properly and expect more than an annual set of accounts.
A strong fit
- Generally from around €250k turnover; workload and complexity matter too.
- A growing team and recurring monthly activity.
- E-commerce, agencies, technology and other ambitious SMEs.
- Owners who value responsiveness, reliable records and early warnings.
Probably not a fit
- You only want the cheapest annual return.
- You want occasional reactive help rather than an ongoing relationship.
Changing accountant
Switching should not become another project on your desk.
We coordinate the professional handover, collect access, review the opening position and build the recurring timetable. Gaps are identified early and responsibilities are agreed before the monthly service begins.
Questions
Accounting support, without ambiguity.
The agreed scope can include bookkeeping, reconciliations, annual accounts, corporation tax, VAT, payroll, CRO compliance, management reporting and quarterly reviews. The exact scope and fixed monthly fee are agreed before work begins.
Every Around Finance client receives a quarterly meeting with their team as standard. Questions and day-to-day communication can also be handled through email, Slack or WhatsApp.
Recurring work and filing dates are scheduled, assigned to named owners and monitored through delivery KPIs. Our tax and compliance team coordinates year-end accounts and routine compliance, with specialist advisers brought in where needed.
Not necessarily. With your permission, we integrate with bank feeds, finance inboxes, file storage, software and relevant portals so that we can retrieve as much of the required information directly as possible.
Yes. Around Finance is an online accounting firm serving businesses throughout Ireland, supported by offices in Galway and Dublin.
We manage the professional handover, access collection and opening review. We then agree the recurring timetable and identify any historic gaps that need to be resolved.
