What can a bookkeeper help with?

  • Recording sales, purchases and expenses
  • Bank and credit-card reconciliation
  • Invoicing and chasing payments
  • Payroll processing
  • Preparing VAT or sales tax returns
  • Setting up cloud accounting software

When should you hire a bookkeeper?

  • You are behind on your books or dreading tax season
  • You spend evenings and weekends on admin
  • You want monthly figures to manage cash flow
  • You are moving to cloud accounting software

Questions to ask before you hire

When you compare quotes, these questions help you find the right fit:

  1. Which accounting software are you experienced with?
  2. Do you work remotely or on-site?
  3. Are you certified by or a member of a professional body (such as AIPB in the US, or ICB or AAT in the UK)?
  4. How do you charge — hourly, monthly or per transaction?

What affects the cost?

Every business and project is different, so prices vary. The main factors are:

  • Volume of transactions each month
  • Frequency (weekly, monthly, quarterly)
  • Additional services such as payroll or VAT
  • Whether there is a backlog to catch up on

The simplest way to understand the cost for your situation is to compare a few quotes side by side.

Bookkeepers: frequently asked questions

How often should a bookkeeper update my books?
Most small businesses benefit from monthly bookkeeping. Busier businesses may prefer weekly updates.
Can a bookkeeper work remotely?
Yes. With cloud accounting software, many bookkeepers work entirely remotely, giving you a wider choice of professionals.
Can a bookkeeper file my tax return?
Some can, but year-end accounts and tax returns are usually prepared by an accountant. Your bookkeeper’s records make that job faster and cheaper.
