Trusted by Businesses Across London
Businesses across London and the surrounding areas use Accounting People for ongoing accounting, tax and financial support. In a Google review displayed on our website, HN Pack & Storage Ltd, London, says it has used our accounting services since 2014. Read more client feedback below.
A London Business We Helped Support
One example of our work is a London-based delivery company that launched in 2019 and grew quickly while working with a major e-commerce business. As the operation expanded, the directors needed support with statutory accounts, Corporation Tax, VAT, personal tax, payroll and the administrative demands of managing a growing driver workforce.
Accounting People helped put stronger financial and administrative processes in place, including cash-flow planning, payroll support and a bespoke invoicing tool. This gave the directors clearer systems behind the business and more time to focus on running and growing their operation.
Meet the Accountants Behind Accounting People
Accounting People was founded by experienced accountants Ian Luke and Rashid Iqbal, who became partners in 2012 after previously running their own accountancy businesses. Their combined focus on client service and practical business support helped shape the people-first approach that Accounting People continues to follow today.
Ian and Rashid were each independently recognised in the Sunday Times Top 200 Accountants list in 2021. They work alongside our wider accounting team to support businesses and individuals across London with accounting, tax, bookkeeping, payroll and ongoing financial guidance.
