Services provided at Spence Bookkeeping

I provide a bookkeeping service tailored specifically to your business needs — from accurate day-to-day transaction processing to providing a clear financial overview that ensures your records are compliant, organised, and genuinely useful for running your business.

Working predominantly with Xero, I make full use of its powerful features and integrated add-ons to streamline processes, improve efficiency, and give you real-time visibility of your finances. 

My aim is not just to keep your books up to date, but to provide a smooth, reliable system that supports informed decision-making and sustainable growth.

With Making Tax Digital (MTD) for VAT now a requirement for most VAT-registered businesses, it’s essential that your records are accurate, compliant, and submitted correctly. 

I can support you with reviewing or preparing your VAT returns, ensuring they are complete, accurate, and filed on time.

Using MTD-compatible software such as Xero, I help maintain digital records that meet HMRC requirements while keeping the process straightforward and stress-free.

Whether you need ongoing VAT support or a one-off review for peace of mind, I’m here to answer your queries, clarify complex rules, and help you stay compliant while avoiding costly errors.

At Spence Bookkeeping, I provide clear, practical Xero training tailored to the needs of your business. Training can be delivered either in person or via Zoom.

We begin with a discussion about your current Xero setup, your bookkeeping processes, and any areas where you need support. I then tailor the training to ensure you gain the skills and confidence to manage your accounts efficiently.

The training package includes an initial two-hour session, followed by a one-hour follow-up session approximately two weeks later. This allows you time to put your new knowledge into practice before we review any questions, reinforce key concepts, and cover any additional support you need.

Throughout the training, I'll share practical tips and time-saving techniques to help streamline your bookkeeping processes, improve accuracy, and make managing your finances less stressful.
