Liverpool is a port city with a wide owner-managed economy. You do not need a local branch on the letterhead. You need timely numbers, a clear tax plan, and an accountant who has time to talk them through.
TreyBridge Accountants works with owner-managed businesses in Liverpool and across Merseyside from our office in Hull. The usual road route is the M62, continuing west of Manchester, so this is a remote-first relationship. Video meetings are the normal rhythm, with an in-person meeting in Hull, or in Liverpool, only where it is genuinely useful.
We do not have a Liverpool office, and we will not describe ourselves as a Liverpool firm. What you should expect is accurate records, on-time filings, and advice you can act on, from a firm that serves businesses across the UK and Ireland from one office in Hull.
Our motto is Navigating Your Numbers. We are known for tax planning, management accounts, helping businesses become more profitable, and getting accounts in order. We work with owners in many industries, not only digital or technology firms, including businesses heading towards £1 million turnover and beyond.
Liverpool's economy is shaped by the port and by a wider mix of logistics, professional services, construction, retail, hospitality and visitor businesses, alongside manufacturing and a long tail of family companies across Merseyside. Official figures for March 2026 put 14,975 VAT and/or PAYE enterprises in Liverpool, and 39,930 in Merseyside as a whole. There were 140 accounting and auditing workplaces in the city, which is a relatively open market compared with some larger centres.
We are not trying to be the accountant to a national group. We are here for the owner-managed company: the logistics or trade business, the professional practice, the hospitality or retail firm, and the growing limited company that wants a clearer view of profit and tax. In a large city it is easy to become a small file in a large practice. We work the other way: regular management accounts, tax planning before the year end, and a person you can actually reach.
The M62 is a straightforward link, but it is a longer journey than Leeds or even Manchester, so we would not ask you to make it every month. The practical model is:
Aaron Gilmore is personally ACCA registered. The firm itself is not an ACCA firm. The firm is supervised by HMRC for anti-money laundering and is registered with Companies House as an Authorised Corporate Service Provider. Our office is at Suite 2.06B, C4DI @TheDock, 31-38 Queen Street, Hull, HU1 1UU. Liverpool sits on the same M62 corridor as Manchester and Leeds, so this is a natural extension of work we already do, not a one-off.
We will get the records onto a reliable cycle, prepare management accounts, plan tax in good time, and keep accounts and returns on time. If the books have been neglected, we start by getting them in order. If you want to switch accountants, we will manage the handover with your permission. We explain the why in plain English: why cash does not match profit, or where a part of the business is losing money.
No. We have one office, in Hull. We serve Liverpool clients online, with video meetings as standard, and in-person meetings in Hull or Liverpool where they are practical. We will never present a Liverpool address as our own.
For most owner-managed businesses, no. The work is done in cloud software, and most conversations are by video or phone. The drive is a longer M62 journey than for a Leeds client, which is fine for an occasional meeting but not something either of us needs to do every week.
Owner-managed companies across a range of sectors, including logistics, trades, professional services, retail, hospitality, construction and manufacturing. We are not a digital or media-only firm, even though those sectors are part of the city's economy.
You do not have to use Xero. We are a Xero Gold Partner and work mainly in Xero, but we also support QuickBooks, Sage and FreeAgent. We will stay with the system you have if it is doing its job.
With your permission we contact them, collect the records and authorisations, and agree a timetable around your next VAT, payroll and year-end dates. You should not have to chase the handover yourself.
