HOW WE WORK.

Whether you want to find better ways to manage your business processes, or you need support for things like bookkeeping, business planning or payroll, we know how important it is to get every aspect of your business running smoothly.

With you from the start

The best time to establish good business practices is at start-up. Our goal is to help your business grow, and we will actively work with you to develop or simplify and improve your day to day processes.
We can set up your accounting and administration systems and do the bookkeeping for you, or give you training and support so you can do it yourself.

Ready when you are

If you’re up and running already, you’ll know that future success can come from the smallest of changes. It’s amazing how much productivity and profit can be found by getting your systems and processes up to scratch.
We can work with you to show you new ways to add value to your business, streamlining the way you work or providing affordable expertise in areas you’d prefer to outsource.

PERFORMANCE

Your success is our goal. Our services can make a big difference to your bottom line.

SECURITY

Your information is safe with us, backed up in Cloud storage services.

INTEGRITY

Building and maintaining relationships with our clients is our number one priority.

SUPPORT

We will always be available to trouble-shoot issues, even outside of normal business hours.

OUR SERVICES.

Business Process Improvement

Take a strategic approach to improving your business. We look at the how, who, why, when and where of how you operate, then streamline your processes and systems to create a more efficient workflow, optimise productivity and encourage growth.

BUSINESS PROCESS IMPROVEMENT

Although we are at home with accounting, our speciality is process improvement.  If you could benefit from being better organised, we would love the opportunity to work with you to help streamline and automate your work flow processes, ultimately making your business more productive and profitable.

We take a big picture view to business improvement, it’s not just about improving the financials.  We’ll work with you to save you time, effort and money:

  • We review your current procedures and suggest ways to simplify and improve the processes.
  • We establish the most cost-effective way for you to run your administration.
  • We eliminate as much manual data entry and duplication as possible.
  • We look at how well your accounting and business software packages are working for you.
  • We establish whether you are getting everything you need from your software programs and can work with you to implement or convert to new software programs.
  • We see if you could be getting better financial reporting, so you have a clearer picture of what’s going on in your business.

We’ll do all the set-up and train you and your staff.

Bookkeeping

You’ll be surprised at the difference having a bookkeeper can make to your cashflow. We offer affordable bookkeeping expertise that can be customised to your needs. Best of all, there are no big overheads so our rates are kept to a minimum.

BOOKKEEPING

Bookkeeping covers a wide range of accounting and administrative processes but ultimately our aim is to work with you to make sure you run the most efficient office you can, freeing you up to get on with the things you enjoy in life.  Bookkeeping to us involves the following but we’re happy to get involved in anything you think we might be able to help with, just ask:

  • Data entry & filing
  • Bank reconciliation
  • Debtor and creditor management
  • IRD compliance — preparing accurate and timely GST, PAYE and FBT returns
  • Payroll
  • Relief when staff are absent
  • Financial reporting — we will provide you with up to date, accurate financial information to base your business decisions on.
You are in control — as much or as little as you need done

When we work for you, you are in control — we will do as little or as much of the bookkeeping as you wish.

Your place or ours

We will do your bookkeeping at your place or ours — it’s totally up to you. We provide real value as you only pay for the time it takes a bookkeeper to do the job so there is no down time.  If you prefer, we will offer you a monthly fixed fee to help manage your cash flow.

Expertly prepared for end-of-year handover to your accountant

We are competent with current accounting procedures and can use a range of accounting software packages including MYOB and Xero.  Most importantly, your accountant will be able to use the information we provide to efficiently produce your end of year accounts; minimising their time and cost.

If you want the best job, carried out by trustworthy and reliable bookkeepers, then you should talk to us today.  We’ll give you peace of mind at an affordable price.

HR & Payroll Administration

We understand how important payroll is to the smooth running of your business, and how time-consuming it can be. We know our way around multiple payroll providers and can help set up your preferred system, or manage it for you. We’re also skilled at developing professional HR documentation that meets today’s demanding employment compliance requirements.

IRD and ACC Obligations

We understand how time consuming it can be to stay up to date with current legislation and how this can distract you from your core business.  We can provide you with the confidence that all your business compliance needs are being met.

With your permission, we will liaise with the IRD, ACC and your Accountant on your behalf:

  • Making sure all necessary IRD compliance including GST, PAYE, FBT and Income Tax are filed and paid on time or managed on arrangement. No more late payment or interest penalties.
  • Making sure your ACC levies are being calculated correctly and paid on time.
  • We can reduce the need and cost involved in talking to your accountant on unnecessary bookkeeping or compliance issues. Save your accountant’s valuable time for the work they do best, tax advice and preparation of end of year accounts.

Health & Safety

Ensure you are meeting your obligations when it comes to health and safety compliance and monitoring in your workplace. We can help with understanding what’s required, policy writing, and setting up systems for management and reporting.

LEARN MORE

Health & Safety

Is health and safety in your business as good as it could be?

Health and safety requirements are unique to every business and industry, so it is important to have someone who can work with you to develop health and safety procedures that will work for you.

Although we are not qualified health and safety consultants, we have specialist team members who have worked with small-medium sized businesses (up to 13 employees), in a number of industries, developing health and safety procedures and policies.

We can assist with:

  • H&S policy and management system review and development
  • Hazard identification and risk assessment
  • Development of useful procedures and forms
  • H&S meeting facilitation
  • Employee interaction and induction
  • We recommend a third-party review on completion to ensure compliance

When it comes to health and safety, we believe it is vital to have the right people doing the right job so if we feel your business is outside our health and safety expertise, we can help partner you up with specialist Health and Safety consultants that will be able to work with and support you.

Talk to us today about your health and safety procedures.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY.

I have worked with Rebecca and her team @ The Office over the past 10 years and have always found Rebecca to be a very knowledgeable and efficient book-keeper.  They are always up to date with current legislation and confident with a variety of systems and have helped me with some tricky accounting issues at times.  I have always found them flexible and willing to work at times that suit me including weekends and nights which has worked well for me.  Highly recommended.

Kathryn Williams – Director, Travel Booking Services / MYDM My Digital Media

For someone who struggles with financials and tax, Rebecca @ The Office is a godsend!  She keeps me organised and compliant.  She takes a genuine interest in my business and is happy to advise if she believes improvements can be made.  I would have no hesitation in recommending Rebecca and her team to any small business looking to relieve some of the daily paperwork grind.  You’ll wonder how you ever got on without them!

Deborah – Owner/Operator, Feisty Needle Ltd

We have been working with the @ The Office team since 2010 when they helped with the set-up of our business.  Rebecca set up Xero for us and taught us how to use it on a day to day basis giving us the ability to keep control of our business, while knowing that she was only a phone call away if we need help.  They currently run our payroll, file our GST and PAYE and communicate with the IRD on our behalf which is a huge weight off our shoulders, allowing us to focus on getting on with our core business.  We have found @ The Office’s services great value for money.  Thanks Rebecca, you’re a very valuable member of our team.
