About Us

For business owners who are business owners

Making your life easier

Accounts Direct are accountants for business owners. We’re entirely service-led – meaning we put the customer at the heart of everything we do.

Back in 1990, as business owners ourselves, we knew we needed a real accountant that truly understood what made our lives worth living. We’d looked for one and come up short (and frazzled). So, we trained to become accountants ourselves.

Collectively, we’ve owned and seen it all in business. From chip shops to pubs, paintball centres to cash and carries, you name it, we’ve run it. Which is why we’re so good at helping business owners now.

We’re all about making your lives easier. We know you need more hours in the day, more freedom to get creative, and (probably) more money to keep things running.

We can give you all that – and take away the stuff you hate, too. Tell us what you want and we’ll tell you what you need – and build a team around you to get there.
