Our Key Services
What should you look for in a payroll outsourcing service?
Choosing a poor or inefficient outsourced payroll company provider can land you in a heap of trouble. It will also make you very unpopular with your workforce if they do not receive their payslips securely and on time, or if you have not used the latest tax code from HMRC.
That’s why, when it comes to your business’s payroll, it’s wise ensure it is done 100% right every time.
If we were choosing a payroll provider ourselves, these are the 3 main aspects that we would be looking for. Why not tick off the ones that you feel you are getting from your current provider?
1. A friendly, payroll professional who is always happy to talk to you.
Our dedicated team of payroll experts work out of our office in Saffron Walden. Most of them have worked in our payroll department for years – and you’ll soon get to know them by name. They’re always happy to talk to you: no chatbots, no recorded messages, just a helpful payroll professional at the end of the phone, whenever you need them.
2. State-of-the-art, secure payroll software that saves you time
These days, employees expect to access their payroll records at the touch of a button. The last thing you need is for them to pester you for copies of past years’ payslips or P60a. Our system, created by Able Internet Payroll uses a secure portal so that every employee can access all their payroll records online at any time 24/7. You’ll be relieved when paper or email payslips are firmly a thing of the past!
3. A swift and cost-efficient service
We have spent many years refining our payroll processes, ensuring that every payroll run is carried out quickly. Any adjustments required or complex additions or deductions can be applied to each payroll run in record time. This efficiency means that the service we provide remains very competitively priced.

Do you still put yourself through the yearly nightmare of doing your own Self-assessment Tax Return?
I mean really? Unless you’re desperate to learn how to become a tax accountant, why put yourself through all the stress?

THP’s bookkeeping service – your worries, solved!
Don’t spend hours getting frustrated over your bookkeeping. Ask a THP bookkeeper to take care of it for you!
Keeping on top of your bookkeeping can often seem like a chore. Spending all those hours piecing together receipts, invoices, statements, expense claims and the rest simply isn’t the best use of your time. You want to reclaim that valuable time so you can spend it working ON your business! So why not ditch the paperwork and use THP’s bookkeeping service instead?
Our bookkeepers simply love keeping your accounts in order. They’re also really good at it. And you’ll be amazed by how quickly they can put your figures into tip-top order.
Once you’ve worked with a THP bookkeeper, you won’t want to go back. They will help you:
- Free up your time – so you can focus on your business, clients and customers – not your numbers
- Get accurate figures – then you’ll know where your business finances stand – and make it simpler to move to the next step – management accounts
- Do your bookkeeping on time – we’ll do your books when we say we will to an agreed timetable. No more having to find time to do them yourself!
It doesn’t matter which accounting software you use, or even if you rely on spreadsheets – our bookkeepers can help.
If you are currently using spreadsheets or other manual methods and are looking to enter the world of Cloud Accounting we recommend Xero or Freeagent, depending on the size and type of business you are operating. Our team will be happy to advise you on the best software platform for your circumstances.

Tax planning services for businesses and individuals
The best way to pay less tax is to plan ahead. And with the right tax planning services and advice from THP, you could keep more of your money to enjoy, invest, save or pass on.
Whether you need tax planning services for your business or your own finances, it’s important to take the long view. With the government cracking down on tax loopholes, the opportunities for saving tax require a more careful and considered approach.
Our Tax Planning Team makes sure you’re not exposed to risk. Instead, what you get is sound tax advice that is based on your individual circumstances and is compliant with both the letter and the spirit of the law.
Read on to learn more about our personal and business tax planning services, or get in touch now for an informal discussion.
Your accounts – let’s make them work for you
These days, it’s easier than ever to keep on top of your accounts. But that’s not the whole story.
It’s true that cloud accounting software makes accurate record keeping simple. At the click of a button or the press of a screen, you can issue invoices and purchase orders, tot up your expenditure or enter receipts just by scanning them.
Yet, having accurate figures is one thing. Knowing what to do with them is another.
This is where THP’s friendly and expert accountants come in. When we take care of your accounts, we can do a whole lot more than making sure the sums add up.
What we also do is help make your accounts work for you. As your accountants, these are just some of the ways we can use our knowledge and experience to help you:
- Make sure you’re making full use of tax breaks – including those you might not know about
- Ensure you’re on the right VAT scheme – to optimise your income and cashflow
- Produce monthly management accounts – so you can make business decisions based on accurate data
- Take care of your tax returns – whether for Income Tax, VAT, CIS or Corporation Tax
- Find new ways to help you thrive – we can help you with everything from R&D tax breaks to unclaimed capital allowances.
At THP, we believe that a good accountant does much more than make sure your accounts are correctly entered into your software. We believe that your accounts are the source of opportunities – whether to save tax, secure funding, improve cash flow or other business goals that are important to you.
So why not put your accounts to work? Get in touch with our helpful team of accountants today to get started.
MTD-compliant VAT Returns & Services
With the right advice and a bit of careful planning, you can not only make sure your VAT returns are submitted like clockwork, but your business can enjoy other benefits too. At THP, we can help you decide whether to register your business for VAT, offer you helpful VAT advice, and can complete and submit accurate VAT returns on time, every time. Better still, now that all VAT registered businesses have to be part of Making Tax Digital, we can provide you with the cloud accounting software you need – often at no extra cost.
VAT Registration
We’re often asked whether a business has to register for VAT.
At the simplest level, if your VAT taxable turnover is £90,000 or more, then you have to!
If your turnover is less than that, you can register voluntarily. It sounds odd to register for a tax if you don’t need to, but there are two good reasons you might do this:
- You could save money. If you pay out more VAT than you charge, the taxman actually pays you!
- Your business has more credibility. Larger clients and customers will often only deal with VAT-registered businesses.
Every business is different, so VAT registration isn’t for everyone. Our expert VAT accountants are happy to advise on the best route for you.
