Growth for local accountancy firm
The team at Purple Lime , based out of Hartham Park in Corsham is growing with two new members coming on board in recent weeks and more clients embracing a modern and fresh approach to accounting .
It was more than a year ago co-founders Angela Ashworth and Oli Thomas came together to set up Purple Lime – offering a small business outsourced flexible finance department using Xero cloud technology .
They brought with them many years of experience in accountancy , financial management , payroll , VAT returns , book-keeping , tax compliance and anything to do with the financial health of a business .
Oli Thomas said : “ We are thrilled to be so busy so early on in our journey – and are grateful to our clients and contacts for their support and enthusiasm . It ’ s been amazing how quickly companies are recognising the value of our fresh approach to accountancy .”
One company which is supportive of the ethos of Purple Lime is chartered surveyors ’ practice Colston & Colston of Bath .
Colston & Colston have a strong legacy in Bath and the South West working in disciplines including commercial development , lease consultancy , valuations , rural commercial projects , planning consultancy and building surveying .
Previously a paper-based practice , they ’ ve now worked with Oli and Angela at Purple Lime to become Cloud-based practice using a range of applications to suit their business needs . These include ReLeased property management software , Receipt Bank , Xero and Tripcatcher .
Partner Allan Lloyd said : “ We had been let down previously when we tried to outsource our financial director functions – where we wanted to work with a company which was modern and forward-thinking as well as being hands-on .
“ We are a forward-thinking company and wanted to work with a strategic partner with the same dynamic approach . We wanted to work with a company which would reflect our own ambitions and we ’ ve found that working with Angela , Oli and the team .”
If you believe the need for ‘ once a year ’ compliance is out of date – call the team for a no-obligation conversation .
