Welcome to Unicorn Accountants, tailored accounting solutions for limited companies
Running a limited company can be challenging as well as exciting. We know because we are doing it ourselves. As a business owner, you are the expert when it comes to your core service, but chances are you find other aspects of running your limited company more difficult, time-consuming or simply energy-draining.
If finance is one of those areas, Unicorn Accountants can take the strain, leaving you free to be creative in the areas you enjoy most.

Everyone knows that accountants offer company and self-assessment tax return services, but our limited company accounts services cover many other areas of accounting and business advisory. This is perfect for smaller businesses whose budgets don't yet stretch to in-house finance staff.
Read on to find out how we can help you transform your limited company accounts, help boost your profits, plus make your life a lot easier. Contact us today to arrange a consultation with one of our friendly chartered accountants.
Bookkeeping
Regular, accurate bookkeeping is the backbone of all limited company accounts. It's essential to a stress-free tax year end, making informed decisions, and managing cash flow.
Don't let bookkeeping tie you in knots: modern accounting software like Xero and Dext makes bookkeeping easy. It shows your finances in real-time, automates bank transfers, and allows you to make entries from any device, freeing up time and headspace for innovation, development, and customer service.
Company tax return
Your company tax return is mandatory, even if you've not made a profit. Our limited company accountants will keep your business compliant with HMRC and ensure you pay the right amount of tax or have the right loss to carry forward to the next accounting period.
Our tax planning will help you keep more of your hard-earned cash by identifying all eligible tax reliefs, credits, and expenses to reduce your tax liability. We'll also ensure your company tax return is submitted on time and without errors, helping you avoid unnecessary penalties from HMRC.
Payroll
Happy employees are productive employees, so paying them correctly and on time is one of the most important finance admin tasks in your business. Tax or National Insurance errors can affect morale as well as your reputation, which is why professional accountants can be of huge benefit.
At Unicorn Accountants, we can offer a payroll service, whether it's for a small team or hundreds of employees, to ensure you meet your legal obligations to HMRC and your staff.
Company formation
Unicorn Accountants can provide valuable advice on your business structure, ensuring your business is managed in the most tax-efficient way. Whether you are just starting out or are a sole trader looking to take the leap, we'll help you make an informed decision about company formation.
Registering a limited company is fairly straightforward, but we can make it even easier so you can devote your energy to the business and hit the ground running.
Company secretarial
Financial admin is very time-consuming for busy limited company directors. Our company secretarial services include maintaining registers of members and directors, statutory filings such as changes in share capital, share classes, or other structural adjustments, advising on governance, and managing dividend payments to shareholders.
Tax Compliance
Submitting corporation tax returns on time is vital for your limited company to avoid interest charges and penalties. Let us look after your company and personal tax affairs so you can avoid an unexpected tax bill, be as tax-efficient as possible and focus on other areas that help grow your business faster.
We can also handle your VAT returns and help you register for VAT when the time is right.
Xero Online Accounting
At Unicorn, Xero is our preferred online accounting software, and we are certified Xero advisors. This means we know Xero inside out and backwards! We can streamline all your limited company accounting to take the hard work out of managing your business transactions.
You can replace dozens of spreadsheets with bespoke reports, connect your business bank account to the software for easy reconciliations (no more cross-checking your bank statements), and use fast receipt capture to reduce paperwork and errors.
