Call 01244 730 300Swift Accountants · Supporting Telford & Wrekin
Your business deserves an accountant who understands the work behind the numbers. We help Telford businesses and individuals with accounts, tax and the questions that come up along the way.
From your first tax return to the next stage of your company, get a clear plan, a fixed fee agreed upfront and a friendly team you feel comfortable calling.
Tell us what you need. Your initial conversation is free, with no obligation to join.
Let’s make room for the work you enjoy
You have orders to fulfil, customers to look after and decisions to make. When the financial admin follows you home, it helps to have someone who can turn a pile of questions into a practical plan.
We help you bring sales, costs, outstanding invoices and upcoming bills into view, so you can understand the gap between a busy business and the cash available.
We agree which tasks we’ll handle, what information you’ll send and when. Your accounts, VAT and payroll can follow a routine that fits the business.
Please ask it. Whether you’re planning a purchase, taking on help or trying to understand a letter, we’ll explain the next step in language that makes sense.
Accounting shaped around your business
A workshop near Hortonwood, an independent shop in Wellington and a consultant working from home have different priorities. We start with how you earn, spend and work, then recommend the support that fits.
We also help landlords and property businesses, contractors and people who need personal tax return support.
The right help, clearly explained
You can start with one task or bring several services together. We’ll explain what you need, what we’ll do and what your quote includes.
| The support | What we can help with | What it helps you do |
|---|---|---|
| Company accounts & Corporation Tax | Annual accounts, company tax returns and a clear explanation of the figures and relevant dates. | Understand your company’s position and prepare for filing and payment commitments. |
| Self Assessment | Tax returns for self-employment, rental income and other circumstances that require a return. | Know which records to provide and understand your calculation before submission. |
| Bookkeeping | Organising invoices, receipts and bank transactions, with a routine suited to your volume of work. | Spend less time searching for paperwork and work from more useful records. |
| VAT returns & digital records | VAT return preparation, digital record keeping and support with the VAT questions your business faces. | Keep your VAT process organised and understand the information behind each return. |
| Payroll | Pay calculations, payslips, payroll submissions and agreed support with staff changes. | Establish a clear timetable for sending hours, changes and other payroll information. |
| CIS & construction support | Subcontractor records, CIS reporting and keeping track of the costs behind your jobs. | Bring the financial admin around your projects into a more manageable routine. |
| Planning & business decisions | Conversations about cash flow, tax commitments and the financial impact of business changes. | Ask questions before taking a step such as hiring, investing or expanding. |
Your service is agreed around your circumstances. We’ll confirm responsibilities, records needed and any additional work before you commit.
| Your business | Your structure, income sources and reporting needs. |
|---|---|
| Your records | The volume of transactions and how up to date the bookkeeping is. |
| Your support | The services, advice and ongoing help you want us to provide. |
Know what you’re agreeing to
Choosing an accountant should feel comfortable from the start. That includes understanding the cost.
We’ll ask a few questions about your business and records, then explain the support we recommend. You’ll receive a fixed-fee quote with the scope set out, so you can make an informed decision.
If your business changes, we’ll discuss any change to the work and fee with you. You should feel able to ask a question about your quote just as comfortably as a question about your accounts.

Already using software? We’ll review your setup before recommending changes. Starting from a spreadsheet or a folder of receipts? We’ll explain the options and help you build a routine you can maintain.
Your accountant is there to help you understand the records, the software and what needs your attention. You can also use our client portal for agreed document sharing and approvals.
