Client Testimonials

I established myself as a limited company in 2015 to manage my various freelance television and writing contracts. I had no idea how to set up a company and had only done so as the networks and large independent production companies that hired me insisted on it. Em advised which services I would need, came up with a workable budget and took over the entire incorporation, payroll and account filing process, streamlining it so that I know exactly which records I need to provide each month and making sure my VAT return always goes in on time. Most crucially she is always at the end of the phone and instantly emails over the right document or advice when I am trying to do any of those major life things that always seem to be weighed against self-employed people. If I need to provide financial records mid financial year for an estate agent, bank manager or solicitor she is endlessly helpful and patient, including providing a financial reference for me whilst on her annual summer holiday with her family! I cannot recommend her highly enough.

Tom Whitehouse, CEO of Carbon Communications International Ltd, Public Relations and Journalism, EC2A

Having worked with Jems prior to starting my own business, I quickly noticed the team’s expertise, professionalism, and meticulous attention to detail. The company was instrumental in helping me set up and manage my company accounts and that knowledge and competency has proved invaluable over the years in helping me manage those accounts. It’s not simply a question of helping with the day-to-day stresses of managing a business but also advising on the right course of action and supporting future planning. Not to mention the team is a pleasure to work with.

In 2005 they completely revised our Accountancy procedures to excellent effect and the training and accountancy support they have provided since has been invaluable. Their involvement with iOO Sales has always been totally professional and we would be happy to recommend them to any client considering employing them.

Kevin McDermott, Operations Manager of IOO Sales Ltd, Optical and Educational Supplies Company based in London, SE1

We have been using the services of Jems Bookkeeping Services for over 6 years. We use their services 2 days a month, one day in our offices and the other is worked “remotely” off site.

As a small Independent Company we do not have the resources or the need to employ an in-house bookkeeper. I was at first very hesitant to use an external bookkeeping service, the obvious concerns being those regarding confidential and the security of sending source documents out of the office. These fears were totally un-necessary. I have found the service provided by Jems to be exceptional. The bookkeeper quickly got to grips with the nature of our business and now takes care of our accounts right through to trial balance at year end. Honest, Trustworthy, Fast and Efficient not to mention “fun” to work with.

I cannot recommend them highly enough, and would be happy to provide further references if required.

Alison Gillow, Director of ARG Property Management Ltd, Property Management Company based in London, NW1

I just wanted to let you know how happy I am with the service provided by Jems Bookkeeping and Accountancy Services Ltd, and with you in particular, in the handling of my company account.

Your service from start to finish has been exemplary and on a professional, knowledgeable, yet friendly level that far exceeds all other Accounting agencies I have dealt with. Nothing ever seems to be too much trouble to you and I am made to feel unique, never feeling that I am just one of many clients that you and your office have to deal with each day.

I regularly attend business group networking events and it has been a pleasure to be able to pay you back in some way by giving my wholehearted and thorough recommendation to these groups. Long may you continue to set standards for others to follow.

Raficq Kurimbokus, Director of CMMk Solutions Ltd, IT Consultancy Company based in London, EN5

We have engaged the services of Jems Bookkeeping and Accountancy Services since July 2006 and to date continue to be impressed with the service they provide us. Since Jems has taken over our accounting requirements it has enabled our practice to focus our full attention on our business relinquishing the worry relating to the financial aspects of producing our accounts on time. Every month our accounts are collected by Jems, speedily dealt with to ensure our deadlines regarding tax, VAT and payments are always met on time.

Jems provides a personal, professional, efficient, reliable, consistent and value for money service, we would not hesitate to recommend them.

Stephen Walsh, Director of S.A. Walsh Specialist Consulting Engineers and Expert Witness Ltd, Specialist engineers and Expert Witness Company based in London, SE9

Jems was recommended to us over 3 years ago, they have been providing us with an excellent bookkeeping service ever since.

Jems established a professional working relationship from the start, initially creating a clear and understandable format from the information we provided. Jems has been consistent in providing us with advice, monthly updates, payroll and HMRC calculations and up to the minute information when required. We would recommend Jems as a bookkeeping service for their reliability and professionalism.
