Philip Gale (Business Orchard)

We are an innovative firm of Chartered Accountants who enjoy helping businesses improve their performance and profitability.

We generally have a holistic approach to find a bespoke solution and we consider planning and personal goals as vitally important. A lot of our work is done with owner managed businesses and business start ups.

We take our clients' interests to heart and strive to be proactive, recommending value added solutions that help to identify opportunities to improve the bottom line and support you in achieving your personal and business goals.

Of course, like most firms, we can take care of all the routine bookkeeping, accounting, tax, auditing, payroll and company secretarial requirements to free up your time so that you can concentrate on your business.

We have a growing team providing an outsourced finance function solution for a variety of business, including overseas businesses that are UK inbound.

We offer a free initial consultation, without obligation and we will provide a fixed fee quote for the services required at that meeting.

I have spent many years in practice as a business adviser and chartered accountant.

During my time, I have worked with a lot of different people, ranging from back-to-work mums and pensioners to multi-millionaires, in a lot of different businesses from small start ups to large quoted companies. I enjoy getting to know new people and new businesses and exploring how I can help them grow and achieve their goals, if they will let me!

Until the start of the year, I was an equity partner in a medium sized accountancy practice but I have now joined a smaller practice which is less stressful and more fun

I am now actively networking, although I am a comparative novice with the online stuff. I still prefer to talk, listen and make eye contact.
