Beyond the Numbers – An Insight into Sapphire Accounting with Matthew Guest
News 23rd Aug ’23Do you own a limited company? Chances are you need an expert on hand to offer help and advice to achieve your goals. Sapphire’s limited company clients receive the best advice from our industry experts.
Hear from one of our experts Matthew Guest, Accounts Team Leader, on why Sapphire goes beyond the numbers to help business owners reach their desired outcomes.
Matt, tell us a little bit about you.
Hi, I’m Matthew Guest, one of the Accounts Team Leaders here at Sapphire. After completing my Accounting & Finance degree in Manchester, I took a short break from finance to focus on personal development. Sapphire enticed me back into the Finance Sector 6 years ago, and I began the journey through our Payroll and Customer Service departments, then returned to my roots in Accounts.
What do you do at Sapphire?
Our sole purpose in Accounts is to make sure our limited company clients are receiving the best possible advice based on each person’s individual circumstances, which will ultimately help our clients operate as tax efficiently as possible whilst they look to grow and expand their limited company. Along the way, we look to reduce the burdens and stresses that come with managing their own company by providing them with proactive advice which helps them avoid any pitfalls they may have otherwise stumbled into.
I love speaking to our clients, getting to understand both their limited company and personal goals, and building a working relationship that helps the client achieve everything they set their sights on.
What is important to you?
Working within the Customer Service department revealed to me what I see as important; taking the time to help someone in need, someone who has questions that need answering, someone who needs a clearer explanation to truly understand their finances, so as the Accounts Team Leader, this was one of the most important values I instilled within the team. We ensure our clients are always getting the best advice by helping them truly understand their responsibilities and how their limited company works as a director and shareholder of their own business.
If you want an explanation without jargon, with someone who takes the time to help you put the pieces together, you’re in the right place.
Why Sapphire?
I truly believe that Sapphire is unique, which is why it is such a great place to work, and for clients to work with.
Sapphire are pioneers in the Accountancy and Umbrella industry due to the fact we became ‘Employee Owned’ back in September 2021. What this brings to each employee is a drive and determination for Sapphire to be the most successful company in the market, deliver the best service available for our clients and help business owners achieve their goals.
With Employee Ownership, Sapphire’s staff are of paramount importance, as a result, we retain the best employees who then ensure Sapphire continues to go from one success to the next. The care and attention to detail is reflected in the service that every person at Sapphire delivers. If you don’t believe me, the reviews we receive on Trustpilot and Google will give you the assurance you need.
Sapphire provides professional clear-cut solutions for contractors working through their own limited companies. We’ll support you with all the accountancy advice you need to run a profitable, efficient and compliant limited company.
