Accountants for creative & design agencies.

Financial management is our craft and talent

If you’re in the creative sector, the last thing you want is your working day to be filled with the tedium of invoices, expenses, taxes, payroll — that sort of thing.

But managing your finances is essential; it’s how you can continue to complete whatever fanciful, evocative or out-there project you’re working on next. It’s also difficult and time-consuming, and distracts you from the work you’d rather focus on.

Sounds like you need some help — as accountants for creative and design businesses, we’re here for you.

Supporting you on your journey

We work in the background so our clients can focus on their clients, projects and the wider team. With you doing what you do best and us where we thrive, we can ensure your finances are in order by handling the day-to-day financial tasks of a business, including bookkeeping, accounts production, payroll and tax returns.

Accuracy and attention to detail is the name of the game; it’s how we keep our clients compliant with all the rules and regulations.

Unlocking the potential of your agency

We’re not just about ticking the boxes, though. We’re also planners and advisers, striving to help you unlock the potential of your agency with our experience and expertise.

This is where your goals and business particulars come in, as we’ll tailor our support to your particular situation. Generally speaking, though, we’ve been able to help clients by:

• creating tax plans that saved them serious money
• forecasting cash flow and giving practical advice on cash flow management
• producing management accounts to identify threats and spot opportunities
• creating budgets
• assisting with applications for external funding.

We’re experts in financial planning, having worked with design and creative agencies for a number of years. We know how to take a deep dive into your financial figures to get a better understanding of what is going right for your business and where improvements can be made.

But we’ll never shroud what we do or suggest in mystery and accounting buzzwords — that’s of no use to anyone. Instead, we want our clients to understand our advice so they can make better decisions themselves down the road.

Collaboration and personalised support

Collaboration is key in the pursuit for success. As such, we’ll work closely with you, taking the time to understand your goals, challenges, and aspirations. After all, that’s the only way to ensure our work matches your expectations.

As we crack on with the job, you can always rely on us for proactive communication, prompt responses to your inquiries, and ongoing support throughout your journey. If there’s anything we’re not, it’s the accounting firm that you only hear from once a year!

When you partner with Barnridge, you gain more than just accounting services; you gain a trusted adviser and partner invested in your success. So, let us handle the numbers so you can focus on what you do best: bringing your creative visions to life.
