The Tax Network Group combines dependable accountancy with forward-looking tax advice, forecasting and commercial support for established owner-managed businesses.
We stay close to the numbers throughout the year, so when you are considering a hire, an investment, a new structure, an acquisition or eventually an exit, the advice arrives while it can still change the outcome.
Traditional accountancy relationships are built around deadlines. Accounts are filed, returns are submitted and the numbers explain a period that has already passed.
Growing businesses need advice earlier. Decisions about people, investment, cash flow, ownership, tax and succession need to be considered before commitments are made.
We stay close to the numbers throughout the year, helping owners understand the options and make decisions while the advice can still influence the outcome.
One relationship bringing together forward-looking advice, dependable compliance and considered personal tax planning.
Forecasting, management information, tax strategy and commercial advice that help owners understand the financial consequences of a decision before making it.
Accounts, corporation tax, VAT, payroll, bookkeeping and company compliance managed accurately and on time. Reliable information provides the foundation for everything we advise on.
Considered tax compliance and forward-looking advice for business owners, investors, property owners, families and individuals whose affairs require more than the preparation of an annual return.
Our clients are typically beyond the earliest stage of business. There is an established operation, a team to support and decisions being made that carry meaningful financial consequences.
The accounts still need to be right and the deadlines still need to be met. But that is no longer enough. The owner also needs reliable information during the year and access to someone who understands the business when an important decision arises.
You are likely to get value from the relationship if:
We are deliberately not a high-volume accountancy practice. Businesses looking primarily for the lowest-cost annual accounts or a once-a-year filing service are unlikely to need the way we work.
The questions change as a business develops. Our role is to provide the information, tax planning and commercial advice needed at each stage.
Make informed decisions about people, investment, funding and expansion.
Strengthen the business, manage risk and preserve the value already created.
Prepare early for succession, investment or sale, while there is still time to influence the outcome.
Three examples of the kind of work involved. They describe the work, not the results of particular clients.
The difference is not that we complete different tax returns or file different accounts. It is how closely the compliance, information and advice are connected.
You deal directly with the people who understand the work and the decisions behind it, without an account-management layer in between.
The relationship continues through the year, rather than restarting when another filing deadline approaches.
Management information, forecasts and tax projections are prepared while they can still influence a decision.
Structures, transactions and profit extraction are considered before the event rather than explained afterwards.
We explain the position and the available options, then tell you what we think you should do and why.
We maintain a deliberately selective client base so there is enough time to understand each business and remain involved as it changes.
Every accountant can file a tax return. Far fewer can help an owner decide whether acquiring another business is the right move.
Our role is to help business owners make better financial decisions.
The Tax Network Group was built around a simple idea: business owners should have access to useful financial advice while decisions are still being made, rather than receiving a technically correct explanation several months afterwards.
Leon trained at Deloitte and spent ten years in the Big 4, latterly at KPMG, as a specialist tax adviser to high-net-worth individuals and expatriates in the financial services industry. It is work where the sums involved leave no room for an approximate answer. He left to build a practice that could apply that standard of thinking at closer range, and now leads the firm’s work for high-net-worth individuals and business owners: the compliance that has to be right, and the planning that determines how much tax is paid in the first place.
Dale built his career in boutique independent practice, where an adviser carries a client’s whole position rather than one specialism, before establishing his own firm. His experience runs across both individual and company taxation, which is the combination that matters most to an owner whose personal position and company are really a single question. He specialises in tax planning for high-net-worth individuals and business owners, and takes on the work where structure, timing and personal consequences have to be weighed together.
An initial conversation is an opportunity to understand the business, what is changing and the decisions ahead. We will establish what you need and whether The Tax Network Group is the right firm to provide it.
