In short

Clinquant works with owner-managed companies, partnerships and sole traders across Camden and Islington, including King's Cross, Camden Town, Hampstead, Angel, Highbury and Clerkenwell. We handle accounts, tax, payroll, VAT, bookkeeping and management accounts for fixed fees.

Who we work with

We work with owner-managed businesses of every type and size. Camden and Islington combine one of London's biggest technology and creative clusters around King's Cross with a dense hospitality and music economy. The mix brings very different accounting needs:

  • Tech, design and architecture practices: management accounts, forecasts for investors or lenders, and payroll as teams grow.
  • Bars, restaurants and live venues: variable payroll, cash takings, stock and VAT.
  • Consultants, writers and creatives: self assessment, the choice between sole trader and company, and director pay.

How working with us looks

Most of the work happens by email, video call and secure document sharing, with records kept in cloud software you can see at any time. You deal with one qualified accountant throughout, with no account managers and no handovers. Fees are fixed and agreed before any work starts.

Common questions

Working with an accountant in Camden & Islington

Yes. We work with owner-managed limited companies, partnerships and sole traders in Camden & Islington, handling year-end accounts, corporation tax, self assessment, payroll, VAT and bookkeeping for a fixed annual fee agreed in advance.

Yes. We build monthly forecasts of profit, cash and the balance sheet with the assumptions written down, and provide management accounts afterwards so investors see actuals against plan.

It depends on profit, how much you need to draw, liability and administration. A company gives flexibility on how profit is taken but costs more to run. We can model both for your figures.
