Profile Information

Now more than ever, you might be thinking about how to make your time and income work harder for your future, so that you’re in control.

As a TaxAssist Accountant, you can run a thriving accountancy and advisory practice, enjoy a growing income from your efforts, and build a valuable asset to sell when the time is right.

You will be able to deliver a suite of accounting, tax, financial and advisory services to local business owners, contractors, freelancers, and their families from your welcoming high street premises.

Successful TaxAssist Accountants come from a wide range of backgrounds, ages, and experiences

They have worked both in accounting practices and as accountants in industry plus those that have joined us from banking, financial services, corporate and consulting backgrounds have been particularly successful too.

Having a financial background is essential – the focus is on advising and supporting clients while the tech and your team do the number crunching.

 

The Market

With the loss of the traditional bank manager and other advisory organisations, there is a gap that TaxAssist Accountants are filling, as people seek a local trusted advisor for their business and personal financial affairs.

Demand is constant, with evolving tech automating many of the basic services. Our network and their teams harness this to deliver a suite of accounting, tax, bookkeeping and payroll services alongside advisory work, with a relationship-led approach.

Added to these core services, you’ll have multiple additional service lines (TaxAssist Financial Services, Tax Consulting by TaxAssist, Payroll Services by TaxAssist) that you can introduce to clients and then refer to our dedicated teams through the TaxAssist Group to undertake the service delivery – helping you create multiple revenue streams for your business.

Our technical team consists of qualified tax and accounting experts who operate a helpdesk, as well as delivering regulatory updates for you and your team. The franchisor provides specialist franchise development support for you as the practice owner. You’ll always be able to access the advice you need, whenever you need it.

Your Role - and Our Role

As a TaxAssist Accountant you are in business for yourself, but not by yourself.

The goal is for you to work on the business rather than in it. That way, you’re growing an asset as well as your income.

You’ll spend your time growing your accounting practice attracting new clients and leading your team of loyal staff. We’ll guide you every step of the way to maximise both your income and asset value, all you need to do is follow the proven model – just like hundreds of people have before you.

News / Success stories

TaxAssist Accountants launches new style Initial Training Course

Training and development support for new franchisees has been adapted and increased.

With the COVID-19 pandemic enforcing change and adaption, TaxAssist Accountants has successfully delivered its Initial Training Course virtually. As a result, a new extended and enhanced hybrid training and support programme has been developed for new franchisees joining the network from the June 2022 course onwards.

Head of Group Training, Samantha Skyring, FCCA, ACIPP, MAAT, explains: “It soon became apparent that for certain types of training, virtual delivery works very well.  As a result, a new seven-week initial training course has been developed, which is a mixture of both face-to-face and virtual delivery.

“We have reworked the itinerary of the course to ensure every franchisee is trained in the most effective way and have expanded the scope of the course, with a real focus on the practical side of running and managing a practice, alongside the theory of compliance work. We trialled this on our initial training course earlier this year, which resulted in extremely positive feedback from the delegates.

“With software playing such a vital role in helping clients maintain their records, through to accountants preparing accounts and tax returns, to ensuring efficient and profitable operation within the practice, it makes sense that our training reflects this.

“Former Non-Executive Director and franchisee Mark Fordham has taken on the role of Franchise Development Manager and is supporting new UK franchisees in their first year, providing a mix of technical, business development, general management and business planning advice and support. Mark is an invaluable resource, passing on his knowledge and experience to help newer franchisees as they launch and grow their practices.

“We have also extended the follow-up nurture training programme from 6 to 24 months to best support franchisees in the early years of operation.”

The Initial Training Course covers all aspects of the TaxAssist Accountants business model and prepares new franchisees for trading as a TaxAssist accountant with a wide range of accountancy, tax, software, sales and marketing topics. It is delivered by an in-house team of qualified accountants and trainers in conjunction with specialist training partners.

All accommodation and meals are included for any residential period of the Initial Training Course during which franchisees get to meet and know the Support Centre staff.

If you would like to build your own accountancy practice, a TaxAssist franchise can provide the systems and support you need to be successful. Regular Virtual Discovery Days are being held, where you can find out more about the technical, marketing and business development support on offer.
