Umbrella Bookkeeping are an independent bookkeeping company, working with a range of medium and small businesses across Lewes, Brighton, Haywards Heath and East Sussex. Our expert bookkeepers provide you with the necessary tools to ensure your business is on track with monthly management accounts and financial analysis. By reducing the duties of your accountant we can save you valuable money on your accountants annual bill. Working alongside your accountant at year end, we will provide them with the relevant information and accounts and streamline the year end process, enabling your accountant to concentrate on devising tax strategies and producing your tax return in a timely manner. This in turn provides your business with additional time to be made aware of its tax liabilities, letting you produce all the necessary information in due time.
The founder of Umbrella Bookkeeping, Gersha, worked for many years in a premier financial institution in Brighton. During this time, Gersha identified the need for a more cost effective solution for the bookkeeping and financial needs of small to medium sized businesses. By leaving bookkeeping and accounts preparation to your accountant at the year end, your business is not keeping track of essential management information throughout the year. With this information to hand, as well as a Cashflow forecast vs Actuals and key performance indicators, you can see how your business is performing, and most importantly in which areas it needs attention.

For Umbrella Bookkeeping, offering our clients a flexible service is a key priority, with a range of pricing options, from one-off ad-hoc work to a more regular bookkeeping service, whether you are a medium or small business, you can choose the option that best suits your business:
Ad-Hoc (£25.00 per hour) - For one-off jobs that you are unsure exactly how long they will take. This service is perfect for those clients that do not feel the need for the regular service of a bookkeeper. If appropriate, after having fulfilled your ad-hoc job, you may want to discuss a more regular service.
Regular (£22.50 per hour) - If you need services on a more permanent basis then we suggest using our regular pricing structure with the added benefit of a reduced hourly rate. This is our most popular service by far. However, we can also provide fixed rates (see below).
Fixed Price Rates Available - Fixed price rates are available for those clients that know precisely how long they want us to work on their bookkeeping and financial analysis needs every week, month or year. This pricing structure is available once we have discussed your exact needs and we both agree on the time spent and services to be provided.
Many bookkeeping firms only work with specific accounting packages, this can lead to your business having to switch to different financial software which can be time consuming and costly. We work with a range of accounting, business and payroll software packages so that we can support the package your company currently uses. From Sage to QuickBooks, xero to Kashflow, we currently work with, and therefore have an in-depth knowledge of them all.
