What We Do
Accountants for Contractors
Finding the right contractor accountant can be a difficult task, especially as it is a niche area that requires both a qualified and experienced professional. If you are looking for an accountant that specialises in working with contractors look no further than Chart Accountancy.

Accountants for contractors UK
As our team have been working with contractors for many years we know that they don’t always have the time, or knowledge, to spend working on their accounts and ensuring that everything is in order therefore, our entire service is tailored to this.
When new clients first start working with our contractor accountant team we spend time with them so we can fully understand their requirements and financial situation. We have found that this allows us to create a strong working relationship with our clients, offering the best tailored advice depending on their own unique circumstances.
Working as a contractor means that you are constantly here there and everywhere, so you don’t always have time to sit with your accountant and go through all the information they need. The nature of the industry also means that you don’t have the time to sit down and go through your own accounts, so you require a system that is easily updateable on the move.
Not only are we experienced in the world of accounting for contractors, we are also a forward-thinking company that understands the importance of technology within accounting.
Online accountants for contractors
For those contractors that require easy to access software that is reliable and comprehensive we would always recommend FreeAgent. As one of their certified partners we have seen how the accounting software has benefited many of our contractor clients.
With nothing to download or install the software can be easily accessed online, so wherever you are in the world you will be able to access your accounts easily.
One of the reasons we recommend FreeAgent is because of its simplicity, it allows our clients to send invoices easily, manage their expenses in just a few clicks and offerings real-time information on the important figures.
When acting as your accountant we are able to give more accurate information and advice if we have an accurate and up-to-date set of figures. Working with FreeAgent means that we can do this easily, and all our clients can benefit from working with easy to use software.
