About us

Connolly Accountants offer an unrivalled professional and personal service, given in a cost effective manner. The practice revolves around customer relationships as much as numbers and service delivery. Annual statutory accounts and returns are prompt and accurate; accounts are produced within 2 weeks of receiving all relevant books and records from the client. But more importantly it is about people. Strong client relationships are forged; by understanding business objectives, and applying extensive experience, knowledge & training, the practice helps clients to identify opportunities to improve profits, works with them to achieve their business goals and gives them more time to run their business. A fixed monthly fee is agreed in advance for a bespoke service package.

Please note, Xero doesn't guarantee the service of any one advisor

We don’t review advisor listings and we don’t recommend or guarantee the service provided by any one advisor, so make sure you check them out yourself and get comfortable with them yourself.

Xero certification means that some or all team members have completed courses and been assessed by Xero as proficient in the use of the Xero application.

Xero specialisation means that some or all team members have completed several short learning modules to develop skills in that area.

Xero doesn’t assess any individual advisor’s or firm’s proficiency as an accountant, bookkeeper or financial advisor. And Xero certified advisors and advisors with industry or bank specialisations are not employees of Xero.
