With a simple, straightforward, no fuss approach, mcbain business services provide services tailored to meet your business requirements:
Bookkeeping
The basic building block for all accounting records. A chore for business owners. Experienced with all major software packages, we can take the strain from you, and work with what you have in place or advise what will be the most appropriate for your business, and find ways to streamline the processing of this data where possible.
Payroll
Accurate and timely processing are essential in this regular but mission critical activity. The impact on staff morale cannot be underestimated, should payroll not happen as expected. We provide the support you need to look after your staff and will implement a service to make sure your people are paid accurately and on time.
VAT
We keep abreast of VAT regulations and complexities, so you don’t have to. Operating hand in hand with our bookkeeping services we can ensure that your business is compliant in its VAT recording and timely with its submission of VAT returns.
Management Accounts
Knowing how your business is performing on a regular basis is essential for making the right decisions for moving it forward. We can help you with identifying the key data that you need and how often you need it, and generate that for you, automating these process where possible.
Outsourced Financial Control
Understanding the many financial aspects of a business can be overwhelming. We can support you with solutions to meet your business requirements: review of your company’s financial situation, stock, control, cash flow, business plans, whatever you need, we can discuss it.
CIS
The construction industry has unique tax rules and we are experienced in supporting both sides of the same coin; contractors and sub-contractors, and how to comply with these specific regulations.
Company Secretarial
Often ignored by business owners and left to the last minute, we can ensure that your obligatory filings are made on time and correctly.
Review
Even if you think everything is running smoothly, a fresh pair of eyes can give a new insight and so enlightening.
