Platinum Xero partners. Fluent in everything else.
Founded 2019. By two ex-Big-Four accountants who got fed up.
Sarah and James spent ten years at big city firms watching small businesses get billed thousands for work that took an afternoon. They left, set up shop above a jewellers in Birmingham's Jewellery Quarter, and built the practice they wished they'd had as their first clients.
Six years on, we're a team of four chartered accountants looking after 240+ SMBs across the Midlands — builders, agencies, e-commerce shops, dentists, freelancers and family businesses.
What our clients actually say.
"Switched from a big city firm and the bill halved. So did the stress. They actually answer the phone."
"We were dreading VAT registration. Northbrook had it sorted in a week and saved us from a fine we didn't know was coming."
"First year of trading, didn't have a clue. They sat me down, explained dividends, sorted the lot. Worth every penny of £75/month."
