Accounting for the way Cork does business
Cork has one of the broadest business bases in the country. Software and tech firms, pharmaceutical and medical-device supply chains, food and drink producers and a busy hospitality scene from the city to Kinsale all sit side by side. Many of our Cork clients are contractors and consultants who work for larger companies and need their own affairs set up properly.
The most common question we hear from Cork is whether to stay a sole trader or set up a limited company. The answer depends on your profit, how much you draw and your plans, and we work it out with real numbers before you register anything.

Company set-up, salary versus dividends, expenses and director tax returns.

Accountants in Cork: Frequently Asked Questions
Do you have an office in Cork?
No. We are based in Co. Kerry and serve Cork clients online. Working this way keeps our fees lower than city-centre practices, and you still deal directly with a Fellow Chartered Accountant.
I’m a contractor in Cork. Should I be a sole trader or a limited company?
It depends mainly on your profit and how much you take out of the business each year. We run both options with your real figures so you can see the tax difference before you decide.
Can you take over from my current accountant?
Yes. We handle the handover, collect prior-year records and link ourselves as your tax agent on ROS, so nothing falls between the cracks.
Do you run payroll for Cork employers?
Yes. We run weekly, fortnightly or monthly payroll, report each pay run to Revenue and help you get ready for pension auto-enrolment.
How do I get started?
