CIMA Member in Practice

Clear Cut Accounts are a CIMA Member in Practice

There are a number of highly respected accounting bodies in the UK, who have members with a range of accounting qualifications.

Clear Cut Accounts have two directors - an experienced bookkeeper, and a CIMA qualified accountant who works under the CIMA (Chartered Institute of Management Accountants) Member in Practice programme.

This means that you can be guaranteed to receive a high level of service at all times, knowing that any work or bookkeeping completed is being overseen by a professional, qualified accountant. But as the work is split between the whole team,  the costs to you can be kept down!

Aren't All Accountants the Same?

Anyone can call themselves an Accountant - even if they have not actually passed any exams! Some practices only include accounting technicians or bookkeepers. Other non-qualified accounting firms may be very good, but they can be an unknown quantity, and simply cannot offer the same guarantees as those backed by a professional body. Always ask your accountant what qualifications they have before you hire them.

Another great part of being a CIMA Member in Practice is that we can help and advise your business - not just do your accounts and returns. Please see the below video about all the added value we can bring!
