It never rains… it pours
And we want to help you navigate the storms owning a business can bring.
Like a real umbrella we want to be the spokes that hold all the panels of your business together, helping you with the big picture rather than just the figures. Umbrella are not your everyday accountants.
Accountants
We know you didn’t get into business to crunch numbers
So let us deal with that, but also let us help you grow. The days of accountants being ‘bean counters’ are over. You need keep the tax man sweet, but you also need financial guidance to achieve your business goals – and navigate the tough patches.

WhAT WE DO
We know how hard running your own company can be
We also know ‘number speak’ can be baffling, so many clients just put their heads in the sand. We want to be the one who translates those figures into something that makes sense to you, and helps you make your next business decisions. You need a financial coach – someone who knows the things you don’t. Someone who not only looks back on the year just been, but helps you plan for the year ahead.
Business has changed and cloud-accounting software has revolutionised the way accountants operate, giving us more space to help companies in a more holistic way. There are so many ways to help you streamline and automate your accounting functions, buying you time and headspace. Systems like Xero make your business go, and because of it, companies like us can help you grow.

Our services
Taxation, Accounts and so much more…
We do all the things any normal accounting practice would do – End of Year Accounts, Tax, GST. But we don’t view ourselves as just a caretaker of numbers. We appreciate that having an accountancy relationship puts us in a position to offer all kinds of support to business owners. Our team is all about real solutions to real world challenges and fresh new thinking for your business. We’re happy to bounce ideas around with you, whether they’re to do with the figures or not.
All our years of experience also means we’ve built up a solid network of contacts in marketing, IT, consulting, hospitality, retail, insurance, design, banking and many other industries and these have now become part of the Umbrella family. If there’s something you need help with that we can’t provide, we will be able to introduce you to an Umbrella approved supplier, who can.
