Running a Limited Company means having to wear multiple hats — and the finance one is rarely anybody's favourite. You didn't start your business to become your own bookkeeper, and you shouldn't have to.
​
I'm Jo, a bookkeeper for small, owner-managed businesses who'd rather have clear, honest numbers and a trusted person to ask, than a shoebox of receipts and a nagging feeling something's not quite right.
Sound familiar?
-
You dread opening your accounting software
-
You're never quite sure if you're actually making a profit some months
-
VAT feels like a guessing game every quarter, or worse, you have missed statutory deadlines
-
You're chasing invoices that should've been paid weeks ago
-
Your bookkeeping happens in one panicked catch-up session a month, a quarter, or even annually
-
You want to understand your numbers, not just receive them
-
Your business has grown, but your systems haven't caught up
-
You'd love a second pair of eyes on your numbers — not just a form filled in once a year
If any of this sounds familiar, you're exactly who I work with.

About Me
I've always loved stepping into other people's worlds and finding the part I can help with — even without being an expert in their field. That's exactly what I do for my clients: I don't need to understand your industry inside out, I just need to understand your numbers well enough that you never have to worry about them.
What clients say
"Working with Jo at Rose Books has taken so much off my plate. She keeps everything up to date and compliant, so I can focus on running The People Deal instead of worrying about the numbers. Reliable, approachable and genuinely invested in getting it right — I wouldn't be without her." — Louise Lennon, Director, The People Deal
