Our business

The Ham Partnership has been trading since 1st December 2001 as Chartered Certified Accountants and Business Advisors, regulated by ACCA, the globally recognised “Association of Chartered Certified Accountants”.

We provide individuals and new and growing owner-managed businesses with all the accounting, taxation and business development services they might require.

Although a small firm, we have state of the art systems and software to provide you with “big firm” services combined with the personal touch that a small organisation can offer.

To assist you and your business we like to provide you with more than just the traditional accountancy “compliance” services. It is here that we hope to add value to your business such that our fees are seen as an investment, not an overhead.

We have a great deal of experience in a wide variety of accountancy and taxation areas and where we do not have the specific skill of expertise to help you, we have a network of contacts who can help in many specialist fields. Indeed, please ask us for a recommendation for any aspect of professional assistance you might need.

We might assist in:

• streamlining accounting and management systems to allow you to get on with your business;
• developing your systems to provide monthly management information on a timely basis that provides you with everything you need to know to run you business efficiently and effectively;
• helping you to analyse your business to focus your minds on the more profitable areas and to eliminate the less profitable;
• helping you to analyse your business activity to make more time FOR YOU as well as for your business.

We have invested in the latest technology to streamline and automate many of our professional services. At the same time, as a small organisation, we can keep our overheads low. Thus we can provide a full range of professional services but keep our fees to a manageable level for cost conscious businesses.

Please refer to our Services page for a more detailed list of the areas in which we can assist you.

Do not worry if your specific need is not dealt with here - please contact us and we are sure we will be able to help.
