What Sandra brings to our clients
Audit-grade standards in every client file
Sandra’s years in audit mean TaxDigit approaches accounts the way an auditor would read them. For our clients that means accounts and tax returns that stand up to scrutiny from HMRC, banks, investors and auditors, prepared by a team led by an experienced Fellow of ACCA.
Audit-trained review
Accounts and tax returns are reviewed with the discipline of audit methodology, so figures are supported, reconciled and consistent before anything is filed.
Audit-ready year-end files
Reconciliations, working papers and supporting schedules prepared so that, where your company is audited, the audit runs smoothly and with fewer queries.
Internal controls and risk
Practical reviews of how money, approvals and records move through your business, with clear recommendations to reduce errors and risk.

Where a statutory audit is required, we prepare the accounts and supporting records, deal with audit queries and work alongside the registered audit firm you appoint.

Does TaxDigit carry out statutory audits?
No. A statutory audit can only be carried out by a registered audit firm, and TaxDigit is not registered as a statutory auditor. What we do is prepare accounts and records to an audit-ready standard, review internal controls, deal with audit queries and work alongside the registered audit firm you appoint.
Does my company need an audit?
Many small private companies are exempt from a statutory audit, but not all. Some companies need an audit because of their size, the group they belong to, the sector they operate in or because their shareholders ask for one. TaxDigit can review your position and, where an audit is required, prepare you for it.
