My Bookkeeper Brighton

My Bookkeeper Brighton provides bookkeeping services in Brighton & Hove and Sussex to businesses of all sizes. The business is run by Sophie, who has 15 years of experience. Sophie works with Xero, Sage and Crunch systems, as well as integration with Salesforce and similar databases. She works with small and medium businesses in Brighton, Hove and Portslade as well as nationwide, from start ups to companies with over 40 employees.

Sophie completed a Business and Finance course after coming to the UK at age 18. She was hired by one of her clients, Life Water, full time to become their full time Business Manager. Sophie started her first businesses at 15, selling snails and then seafood to local markets. Services include invoicing clients, handling bookkeeping, chasing clients, liaising with accountants, submitting tax returns, handling expenses and receipts, and reconciling credit cards.

Bookkeeping support and self assessment tax return preparation for sole traders and growing businesses shape the work described by clients in Brighton, with the named bookkeeper Sophie Gist attracting particular praise. A number of customers describe how her involvement has made their accounts far easier to keep in order, pointing to close attention to detail and swift responses whenever questions come up. A recurring theme is her patience when walking clients through tax matters they find intimidating, explained clearly and without talking down to anyone.

Prompt replies, whether by message or through the online channels clients already use, are mentioned again and again, alongside her continued availability during a piece of work and once it has finished. Tax returns, including one completed at very short notice, are said to be handled quickly and accurately. Sole traders report practical suggestions for better systems that could be put into use immediately, while a smooth handover into a growing business is described as exceeding what had been expected. Her forward-looking approach to improving business processes is noted, as is the steadiness that keeps long-standing clients coming back each year.
