Advisory-led accounting and tax for family-owned businesses, to generate and preserve wealth.
King Street works alongside owner-managed and family-run businesses across Manchester and Cheshire, handling the accounts, tax and forecasting so you can concentrate on the business you built.
Everything a growing family business needs from its accountants
From routine compliance to the decisions that shape the next generation of the business, one team handles it all.
Annual Accounts & Compliance
Statutory accounts, corporation tax and Companies House filings, prepared accurately and delivered on time, every time.
Tax Planning & Self Assessment
Proactive planning for the business and the family behind it, not just a return filed once a year.
Management Reporting & Forecasting
Monthly and quarterly reporting, cash flow forecasts and KPIs that show you where the business is heading.
Virtual Finance Team & Director
A finance function you can flex up or down, from bookkeeping to board-level insight, without the overhead of hiring in-house.
Family Business & Succession Planning
Structuring ownership, remuneration and succession so the business can pass to the next generation on your terms.
Cloud Accounting & Bookkeeping
Set-up and ongoing support for Xero and QuickBooks, keeping your numbers current, accurate and accessible.
- 01
Partner-led
You deal directly with Doug or Stephen, not a rotating account team.
- 02
We understand family businesses
The governance, succession and personal dynamics that come with them, as well as the numbers.
- 03
Plain English
Advice you can act on, explained without jargon.
- 04
Built for the long term
Many of our client relationships have run for decades, not accounting periods.
Who we work with
Work with people who actually know how to run profitable businesses, not just send you reports of what has already happened.
We keep your records current, reliable and useful so you can take key decisions with confidence. We can help you raise finance, sort out pricing, collect your cash promptly and extract profit tax-efficiently.
Clients come to King Street for a plain-English, partner-led relationship. It is exactly what a family business usually needs from the people who look after its numbers.
A straightforward way to get started
Conversation
A no-obligation call to understand your business and what you need from your accountants.
A tailored plan
We set out the services, timings and fees in plain terms before any work begins.
An ongoing partnership
Regular contact throughout the year, not just at year-end.
Is your relationship with your accountant going nowhere?
If you only hear from your accountant when a deadline or a bill is due, you are paying for compliance and missing out on advice. Moving to King Street is easier than most owners expect, and we do the work.
Sound familiar?
- You only hear from them once a year, at year-end.
- Your accounts arrive months after the period ends, too late to act on.
- You speak to someone different every time you call.
- They tell you what happened, never what to do next.
- Questions about tax, cash or growth go unanswered.
Switching is simple. We take care of everything.
You don’t need to wait for your year-end, and you don’t need to have an awkward conversation with your current accountant.
