Nordens Chartered Accountants
Accountants in Canary Wharf
Nordens are chartered accountants for businesses and professionals in Canary Wharf and the Docklands, including Isle of Dogs, Poplar, Limehouse and Wapping. We look after fintech and professional services firms, contractors and high earners, handling accounts, corporation tax, VAT and personal tax, then adding tax planning, forecasting and advisory, with fixed fees agreed up front.
Who we work with
The businesses we support every week.
Fintech and tech businesses
Startups and scale-ups raising investment, claiming R&D relief and needing investor-ready management accounts.
Professional services firms
Consultancies, law firms and advisory businesses that need accounts, partnership tax and profit planning done properly.
Contractors and consultants
Finance and IT contractors working through limited companies who need IR35 awareness and efficient profit extraction.
High earners and families
Senior employees with bonuses, share schemes, rental income or overseas interests who want their personal tax planned ahead.
What usually goes wrong
The problems we are brought in to fix.
Personal tax that keeps getting more complex
Bonuses, share options, the £100k allowance taper and child benefit charges all interact. We plan them together, not one form at a time.
IR35 and contractor uncertainty
Contract status affects how much you take home. We review your position and structure your company so you are not caught out.
Investor-ready numbers
Investors want clean management accounts and credible forecasts. We build the reporting a funding round needs.
Reliefs going unclaimed
R&D, SEIS, EIS and pension planning are routinely missed. We review them every year.
An accountant who only files
If you only hear from your accountant at the deadline, every decision in between is made without advice. We work with you through the year.
International income and moves
Overseas income, secondments and moving abroad bring residence and double tax questions. Our international tax team handles them.
What is included
The work we do for you.
Year end accounts and corporation tax
Statutory accounts, Companies House filings and corporation tax, with planning before the year end.
Personal tax and self assessment
Self assessment for high earners, bonuses, share schemes and rental income, planned in advance.
International tax
Residence, overseas income and cross-border planning for internationally mobile professionals.
Cloud accounting and bookkeeping
Xero set up and run properly, with real time figures you can rely on.
Management accounts and forecasting
Monthly reporting and forecasts that stand up to investor and lender scrutiny.
Family and high net worth support
Joined-up personal finance support for busy professionals and their families.
Your team
Named senior people, not a call centre.
You work with the same senior contacts throughout, supported by a specialist team, with a director signing off the advice you act on. We are a privately owned firm, so the people you meet are the people accountable for the work.
