Can you take over an existing set of books?

Yes. We review the current records, agree opening balances and a reporting calendar, and take over from an agreed date.

How often will I receive management accounts?

Monthly or quarterly, whichever suits the business. The frequency is agreed in the engagement terms.

Do you handle payroll as well?

Yes — payroll processing and the related employer administration can be included in the same engagement.

How does an engagement with EPW start?

With a short conversation about what you need. We then set out the scope, who would lead the work, the timeline and the fee in a written Letter of Engagement before any work begins.

Will I have a single point of contact?

Yes. One person coordinates your work across audit, accounting, tax, corporate and advisory teams, so you are not managing several relationships.
