Essex Accountants: Top Things to Look For

One of the most common horrific mistakes a business can make is hiring the wrong accountant. Once hired, it can be very costly to hire a replacement accountant due to the nature of the job which inherently and directly impacts your bottom line. Choosing the right accountant for your business can mean the difference between success and failure. Read on to find out how you can keep from making the same costly mistakes tens of thousands of businesses make every year.

There are many important things to look for when choosing an accountant. The decision is very important because the position has access to many of your companys deepest secrets. One important thing to look for is good communication skills. You want to look for an accountant that not only can be easily reached, promptly returning your phone calls, but that can also be easily understood. A good accountant will make suggestions that are genuinely helpful based on information that is meaningful to you. You must make sure they have the ability to not only crunch numbers and fill out forms but to also understand the foundation of your business and what goals you want to achieve. This is very important. Also, If you can find an accountant with relevant experience in your field, then that is a great bonus. If so, they will have a great head start being familiar with common solutions that may be specific to your area of business.

If you do find an accountant that you are considering, make sure to check for hidden fees. You should also be sure that the accountant carries liability or errors and omissions insurance. This will compensate you for damages if your accountant makes an error. Another good idea is to check out the accountants references. Good strong references can be a good sign that you have a keeper.
