Bookkeeping for Start-ups

Welcome to Solely Bookkeeping, where my passion for finance and bookkeeping combines with over 30 years of experience in the accountancy world. I have honed my skills particularly in bookkeeping for start-ups, focusing on accounts payables and payroll – areas I genuinely enjoy and excel in. My qualifications as an AAT qualified bookkeeper (AATQB) reflect my commitment to maintaining high standards in my work.
Having served as an administrator for large corporations including State Street Bank and HSBC, I have transitioned into providing freelance bookkeeping for startups, sole traders, family offices, schools, and sports clubs in London. My mission is to alleviate the bookkeeping burden from busy businesses, allowing them to concentrate on their core activities.
From corporate finance teams at State Street and HSBC to hands-on roles in small businesses with fewer than 10 employees, I've seen how the best practices from large organizations can transform the way small businesses manage their finances - without the complexity.
A fellow accountant recently said:
"Your mix of corporate experience and hands-on work with small teams is rare - and it's exactly why your insights land so well."
It's true. I bring the rigour and structure of corporate finance, combined with the practicality and personal touch that small businesses need. And I deliver it all in English or German
At Solely Bookkeeping, my approach is founded on key principles that ensure the highest quality of service:
I offer a range of bookkeeping services in London designed to meet your business needs:
