Our Services

RWB provide specialist accountancy services - covering a wide range of service types, with a unique approach for each.

If you would like to benefit from RWB Chartered Accountants expertise, talk to one of our directors today who are happy to assist with any enquiries you have.

  • We specialise in preparing accounts for owner-managed businesses. We understand the importance of accurate and timely accounts which comply with the latest tax laws and legislation. We have advocated with HMRC and Companies House on behalf of hundreds of clients.

  • At RWB we understand the passion and dedication it takes to get your business off the ground, and we’re here to support you every step of the way.

    As a director-led, family-owned business, we understand the challenges you face and we have assisted hundreds of companies in overcoming similar obstacles.

  • RWB Wealth Management specialises in providing Financial Planning and Estate Management services to business owners and high-net-worth individuals.

  • Our dedicated team at RWB Chartered Accountants have over 150 years combined experience in effectively dealing with corporate finance.

  • Unlike many accountancy firms, RWB Chartered Accountants can offer extensive forensic accounting expertise having over 40 years’ experience in the field. We provide our clients with invaluable support from our specialist in-house team led by an experienced Director.

  • Over the years we’ve saved our clients thousands of hours, taking care of everything from payment processing to preparing payroll and expenses to customised monthly management reporting. Our dedicated bookkeeping team will provide you with continuous, invaluable support and guidance.

    Whether you wish to outsource your monthly bookkeeping function completely or need help covering staff absences such as holidays and maternity leave, our dedicated team are happy to help.

  • With the government creating a new watchdog, the Audit, Reporting and Governance Authority (ARGA), in light of the Carillion, BHS, and Thomas Cook scandals, it's more important than ever to have an audit partner you can trust.

    Our expert team here at RWB Chartered Accountants have vast experience in carrying out audits for businesses.

    When done correctly, an audit is much more than a necessary completion of a statutory responsibility, as it gives an opportunity for your whole business to be examined, highlighting strengths, weaknesses and areas for change and improvement.

  • RWB offers support and planning: 

    As the adage goes, it's during tough times that you find out who your friends are; it’s during an HMRC investigation that you find out how good your accountant is.

    With ever-changing government regulations and increased HMRC penalties, it’s more important than ever to have a tax advisor you can trust.

    Our experienced tax advisors have helped thousands of businesses in Nottinghamshire and throughout the UK. Their in-depth knowledge of tax laws and ever-changing regulations can ensure that you remain compliant, but they can also provide significant insights that can help reduce your tax bill.

  • In our 2024 survey, our clients rated our Payroll services as excellent (83%) or good (17%).

    Payroll is one of your business's most critical aspects. You might not even notice it when it runs smoothly, but if it goes wrong, it can cause chaos.

    Our experienced payroll service in Nottingham comprises a top team of skilled professionals with vast experience in the intricacies of the payroll process.

  • Directors are responsible for ensuring the business is compliant with company legislation and failure to do so can lead to a business being shut down. Company Secretarial duties can be very time-consuming as the business must meet the regulations of the Companies Act. 

    This draws your valuable time away from running the business. Therefore, many of our clients entrust us with all their statutory obligations.

  • Financial planning is essential in ensuring any business or individual are as profitable as they can be. Going through this process will help you identify your goals and what you would like to achieve within a specific time period. 

    Having budgets allows you to monitor what you are spending to maintain a healthy cashflow and increase profits. Identifying areas where you may be overspending such as inventory, employment and HR, or administrative expenses will then allow you to review necessary changes and make informed decisions within your business and ultimately forecast a greater turnover. Forecasts often act as reassurance to lenders when applying for loans and mortgages.

    Planning your financials with us will ensure you are on the right path to complete your objectives.

What our clients say

“RWB provided me with invaluable advice both as a sole trader and subsequently when deciding to incorporate my business. The practice delivers great knowledge and experience through an extremely professional and friendly approach.”

— Director of Charlie Swan Assosciates Ltd

“As a widow I was horrified to receive a tax bill of almost £5,000 when I had thought that all my affairs were straight forward and dealt with properly by H. M. Revenue & Customs. RWB Chartered Accountants quickly got to grips with the situation and it was agreed that I had nothing to pay. Indeed I have now just received notification of a significant repayment of tax.”

— Mrs Kennedy

“The policy which you advised has recently paid out over £38,000 – far more than was forecast some years ago. It has been a tremendous investment. I am so glad I stuck to it even when pessimistic forecasts made it quite attractive to sell it or cash it in in some way. So – a big thank you for your advice so far.”

— Paul S
