Barnes & Scott

We are a Chartered Accountancy firm that specialise in fast growing technology companies in London. Our key specialisms are R&D tax credit claims, employee share option schemes and SEIS/EIS investments. We also have extensive experience in preparing due diligence information for businesses looking to sell or raise capital. In addition, we work closely with tech companies to ensure they are compliant with all the necessary tax and accounting requirements whilst identifying tax efficient strategies along the way. We provide a full range of accounting and bookkeeping services, including VAT, payroll, company accounts and bookkeeping. Barnes & Scott is partnered with Xero and Dext to provide a seamless, scalable and integrated accounting service. We go the extra mile to make sure our clients don’t receive any unexpected tax bills and that all the financial records are in perfect order should they be scrutinised by HMRC or as part of a due diligence exercise. We adopt a transparent and modular approach to our accounting fees, which flexes according to the needs and demands of a growing tech business. Pricing packages are based on a monthly charge. We are selective about who we work with. Barnes & Scott is a family business that focuses on working with growing tech businesses that have a similar ethos.
