The Problem

UK firms are dealing with a well-documented capacity problem.

Qualified accountants are hard to hire and harder to keep. Salaries have risen ahead of fees. And MTD for ITSA, live from 6 April 2026, has added four extra quarterly update deadlines per affected sole trader and landlord client.

Clients want faster turnaround, more advisory time, and competitive fees. EarthOne gives you the capacity to deliver that without adding permanent headcount.

Named professional. Same person every week.
You get a dedicated qualified CA assigned to your firm. Same person, same files, same standards. No rotation, no handoffs.
Your templates. Your file structure.
We do not contact your end clients, ever. All work is delivered on your templates, into your client files, under your branding.
GDPR-aligned DPA signed before work begins.
A signed Data Processing Agreement is in place before any file moves. Not a promise, a signed document. Every time.
You decide the submission route.
We submit to HMRC and Companies House, or hand back for your submission. You keep full control of every client relationship.

Data Security & GDPR

Handing client data offshore is the biggest concern. Here is exactly how we handle it.

  • A GDPR-aligned Data Processing Agreement is signed before any work begins, not promised later, signed upfront.
  • We work inside your software environment wherever possible, Xero, QuickBooks, Sage, IRIS, so your data stays within your systems.
  • Where we hold data, it is subject to role-based access, encrypted transfer and GDPR-compliant handling.
  • We do not use client data for any purpose other than the agreed service.
  • We are happy to complete a due diligence questionnaire from your compliance or IT team before we start.
What this engagement looks like in practice

You send us the work scope. We sign the DPA. A named CA is assigned. They start inside your software, Xero, QuickBooks, or whatever you use, on your files, to your chart of accounts.

Weekly timesheets are shared. Work is reviewed internally by a second qualified CA before it leaves us. You review and sign off. Nothing goes to HMRC or Companies House without your instruction.

One calendar month's notice ends the engagement from either side. No penalty. No minimum term beyond the first month.

What this is not.

We are direct about the things some offshore firms quietly do. None of these apply here.

Not a body-shop. We do not rotate staff through your files.

We do not hide behind "the team" when something goes wrong.

We do not bill for onboarding while someone learns your chart of accounts.

We do not contact your end clients, ever.

It is one named qualified CA on your firm, reviewed by a second qualified CA before anything leaves us.
