HOW WE WORK

More time looking forwards than looking backwards.

We organise the accounting, help you understand what it means and work with you on the decisions ahead. A named relationship owner keeps the work moving.

Organise. Analyse. Grow. Support that develops with your business.

OUR APPROACH

Less time finding the numbers. More time using them.

Disconnected systems leave you piecing things together. We start by getting the accounting in order, then build the reporting and support your business needs.

01 / Organise

Get the foundations right.

Connect your accounting with the way your business runs. We agree how records reach us, who does what and when the recurring work gets done.

Bookkeeping, payroll, supplier payments and VAT are brought into one agreed timetable. The systems may include invoicing, inventory or time tracking, depending on your business.

02 / Analyse

Understand what is really happening.

Monthly accounts give you a consistent view of performance. We help you see what has changed and which questions need attention.

Deeper reporting can connect margins, labour costs, overheads and marketing spend to profit. We agree the measures that matter to your business and the records needed to support them.

03 / Grow

Make the next decision with clearer numbers.

Every client has a quarterly ‘How’s Business?’ check-in. When you need more, we build in the financial control or strategic input to match.

That can mean budgets, cash-flow forecasts, scenario planning or support with funding and growth decisions. The depth and frequency are agreed as part of your engagement.

CLIENT EXPERIENCE

Niamh O'Kennedy

CEO | hellohumans.

“I’ve run an agency for years, but I needed an accounting partner who would genuinely free up my time and give me proper clarity around our numbers. Around Finance automated our systems, brought structure to our reporting, and gave me the confidence to focus on growing the business.”

WORKING TOGETHER

A finance team you can actually work with.

We keep the work moving.

Your relationship owner coordinates the work and is your point of contact. We agree information dates, follow up on gaps and explain what needs your attention.

Use email, Slack or WhatsApp. You know who to contact when a question comes up.

You keep us close to the business.

Give us access to the agreed systems, send information on time and approve the items that need your input.

Tell us when something changes: a new hire, a major purchase, a funding offer or a decision you want to talk through.

Support at the right level.

Some businesses need a quarterly conversation. Others need weekly meetings or a reporting update with a Loom video. We agree a rhythm that fits the work.

MORE CLIENT EXPERIENCES

Free you up to do what you do best.

“Richie and his team are incredible. Always helpful and easy to contact especially if I ever have any questions. They make accounting and paper work very easy for business owners and make it so simple for anyone who may find it difficult to grasp. They have guided me in the best way possible and now I don’t need to worry about my accounts with having Richie & his team on board.”

“Running a whiskey brand involves complex cycles of income and outgoings over both short and long periods. Around Finance has sorted my accounts, leaving me to focus on building the business and the Thomond Gate brand.”

CONNECTED SYSTEMS

Technology that earns its place.

We choose the connections around your business, from sales and payments to stock and time tracking. The aim is less rekeying and a more reliable flow of information.
