    Accountants for Canary Wharf contractors and professionals

    The Canary Wharf client base skews heavily towards contractors and consultants working through their own limited companies, plus permanent PAYE professionals with additional dividend, rental or overseas income. We prepare year-end accounts and CT600 returns, run monthly payroll, file quarterly VAT under MTD and complete director self assessment returns, with clean handovers whenever you move between contracts. Most of our E14 clients complete a full year with us without needing to visit an office once.

    Tech, finance and consultancy contractors in E14

    We work with a lot of technology, data, project and change contractors placed into HSBC, Barclays, Citi, JPMorgan, Morgan Stanley and the tech firms based across Canary Wharf. That means IR35 status support on each engagement, an honest written view on inside vs outside contracts, salary/dividend planning around the tax year, pension contribution modelling, and clear reporting so you always know what your Ltd company can afford to pay out. Where a contract ends and you're moving to PAYE or closing the Ltd, we can arrange a striking-off or refer to a licensed insolvency practitioner for an MVL (Members' Voluntary Liquidation).

    Why professionals in Canary Wharf choose VMK

    Fixed monthly fees, direct access to a qualified chartered accountant, a modern Xero-based setup and same-day responses on HMRC issues. It's built for people who don't want their accountant to disappear when they need them most, around IR35 questions, unexpected HMRC letters, or a decision on whether to close the company.

    Frequently asked questions

    Are you Canary Wharf accountants?+

    Yes. We serve E14 contractors, consultants and Ltd company directors across Canary Wharf, South Quay, Heron Quays, Wood Wharf and the Isle of Dogs, fully remotely via Xero, our secure portal and Zoom.

    Do I need a local accountant in Canary Wharf?+

    No. Almost all our E14 clients work with us fully remotely, a physical office visit isn't needed to open an account, file a return or handle an HMRC issue.

    How much do Canary Wharf accountants cost?+

    Contractor limited companies typically £125–£175/month all-in (accounts, CT600, director payroll, self assessment, VAT). Larger SMEs quoted per requirement. All fees fixed and agreed in writing before we start.

    Can you help with IR35 for Canary Wharf contracts?+

    Yes. We review contracts and working practices for each engagement, provide a written IR35 status view, and structure director remuneration to be tax-efficient whether the engagement sits inside or outside.

    Can you help me close my Ltd company at end of contract?+

    Yes. For companies with reserves under £25,000 we handle the striking-off directly. For larger reserves we refer to a licensed insolvency practitioner for a Members' Voluntary Liquidation, which can access Business Asset Disposal Relief at 14% CGT (2025/26).

    Do you handle director self assessment with PAYE and dividends?+

    Yes. We prepare and file SA100 including employment pages (P60/P11D), dividend income, savings, capital gains and property income, and we cross-check against your payslips so nothing is missed or double-counted.

    Can you help with pension contributions from my Ltd company?+

    Yes. Employer pension contributions from your Ltd are usually fully deductible against corporation tax. We model contribution levels against your available profits, annual allowance and any carried-forward relief.

    Do you support Bitcoin, crypto and vested share reporting?+

    Yes. We handle capital gains on crypto disposals, staking and DeFi income, RSU vesting, ESPP and option exercises, reporting these correctly on your self assessment.

    How quickly can I switch to VMK?+

    Most switches complete in five working days. Free professional clearance and HMRC agent re-authorisation handled by us.
