“They are so much more than just an accountancy firm. George Hay have been our accountants and auditors following the completion of our first year in existence.”

“George Hay helped with our initial management buyout. The bank we used wanted a full time FD in place, but by using George Hay we were able to provide timely, accurate information both for internal and external purposes, fulfilling the role we required.”

“Their website information updates keep you constantly informed.”

“It was important to me to find a partnership with an accountant that I could be sure would not only look after my company finances, but that would act as a wider business partner too.”

“Knowing I had this support system in place was really reassuring.”

“I would highly recommend George Hay to all who are looking for professional, customised and value-based accountancy services.”

“Accountancy matters all seamlessly integrated.”

“Our key contact at the Payroll Bureau is always accessible, responsive and professional. Since joining George Hay this year, especially during our lockdown period, their service has been second to none. ”
