Accountants for Freelancers

Maximise Your Freelance Passion with Bright Ideas Accountancy

Let Bright Ideas Accountancy simplify your finances

As a freelancer you have to juggle many functions – operations, business development, marketing, to name a few – but one that causes more of a headache than most is self-employed bookkeeping. No one wants to do it, but it’s necessary in order to enjoy the financial rewards and flexibility of working for yourself.

But do your finances work for you as well as they could? We understand that you don’t have much time to find out, especially if you’re working a job alongside freelancing. That’s why we’ll help you deal with tax, maximise your take-home pay, and take the related responsibilities off your shoulders.

Why Choose Bright Ideas Accountancy?

At Bright Ideas, we understand that as a freelancer, your focus should be on doing what you love — not worrying about tax returns, financial reports, or compliance. That’s why our freelancer accountants provide you with expert support, helping you stay financially healthy while you concentrate on growing your business.

Additionally, you’ll not only get your own dedicated accountant, but you’ll also have 24/7 access to your accounts – as we’re 100% online! So, whether you operate as a Sole trader or limited company – we’ve got you covered. Let us get your accounts in order and maximise your take home pay, whilst staying on the right side of the Taxman.
