Sound familiar?
Running a business and doing the accounts too?
Most small business owners end up doing their own books by default — not because they want to, but because handing them over feels complicated, expensive or hard to trust. The tax return comes round faster each year. The VAT threshold creeps closer than expected. Payroll has to be right, every month. It is all manageable — it just takes longer the more you leave it.
- Hours each month on bookkeeping that should be running the business
- No clear picture of the tax bill until it actually arrives from HMRC
- VAT deadlines, payroll submissions and Companies House filings all on your plate
What sorted looks like
Books updated monthly so the numbers are always current. Tax position visible throughout the year, not just when the return is due. Deadlines handled before they become a problem — without you having to remember them.
- Monthly bookkeeping handled — no year-end scramble through receipts
- Tax position clear well before the bill arrives, giving you time to plan
- VAT, payroll and Companies House filings managed as a matter of course
- One fixed monthly cost, agreed upfront, that does not move
What small business owners say about Swift
We work with sole traders, limited companies and growing small businesses across the UK. Two clients whose situations were probably not unlike yours.
Swift accounting and bookkeeping services have helped support my educational animal encounter business with excellent financial advice and HMRC support. Kieran was clear with information and explained everything in a way that I could understand.
When I needed information on Accounting for my business, Kieran was the man. As a newly established business, the accounts can seem very daunting, but Kieran very kindly answered all my questions and helped me understand the processes.
What your fixed monthly fee covers
Three core areas that keep your books clean, your tax position visible and your statutory obligations handled — for one agreed monthly cost.
Bookkeeping and Monthly Reconciliation
Your records are updated and reconciled every month so the numbers are always current. No year-end archaeology, no scramble when the tax return is due. Xero-based, cloud-accessible, and always up to date.
Included as standardVAT Returns and Payroll
Quarterly VAT returns prepared and filed with HMRC — Making Tax Digital compliant as standard. Monthly payroll for directors and employees, including RTI submissions and payslips. Both handled without you having to track the deadlines.
Fixed fee, no surprisesYear-End Accounts and Corporation Tax
Annual accounts, CT600 and Companies House confirmation statement — all prepared and filed on time, every year. Your tax liability is visible well before the deadline, so there is time to plan rather than just react.
All included, nothing extraSmall businesses across the UK trust Swift

Why small businesses choose Swift
There is no shortage of accountants. Here is what is different about working with one who already knows how small limited companies and sole trader businesses operate.
Replies the same day
Questions get answered the day you ask them. Not logged, not queued, not passed down the chain — answered. If you want to know whether something is deductible, or what your current tax position looks like, you will know before the end of the day.
One price, clearly agreed
Your monthly fee is fixed and does not change. No hourly billing, no invoice that arrives larger than expected, no charge every time you ask a question. Your accounting costs are as predictable as your other fixed overheads.
ICAEW chartered, not just registered
Kieran Stocker is an ICAEW chartered accountant — a higher qualification than simply being registered with HMRC. That matters when your tax position is being planned, not just processed. Xero Gold Partner status means the software side is handled properly too.
Up and running in four steps
Four steps from enquiry to everything being handled. No complicated onboarding, no paperwork that takes weeks.

We handle the setup
Your Xero account is connected, your records are brought up to date and everything is configured. You do not need to do anything except confirm you want to proceed.
Ongoing — nothing falls through
Monthly bookkeeping, quarterly VAT, annual accounts and corporation tax — handled as a matter of course. Your tax position is visible throughout the year. Surprises are largely avoidable when the books are current.
“Kieran and Swift have been an invaluable asset to me and my business. Kieran provided excellent 1:1 training for Quickbooks, which allowed me to gain confidence about my bookkeeping. More recently he has submitted my self-assessment tax return.”
