Company History

Our journey started back in 1982. We started an accountancy practice locally here in Northern Ireland and quickly established a solid client base as the business grew by word of mouth. In 2010, we saw the opportunity to offer our services across the UK by embracing the online technology the internet offers. We currently service around 400 clients from all over the UK.

Alpha Accounting are Certified Public Accountants, CPAA qualified and insured, but more importantly for you, we have the experience and know-how to provide you with an excellent, cost-effective service and can answer any question you may have with confidence and authority. We recently developed our online “TimeSaver Software” which makes maintaining your bookkeeping, at home, or on the move, nice and easy.

We are still based in Northern Ireland where lower salaries and high education levels mean you get exceptional customer service at cost-effective rates. Tax accounting regulations are the same throughout the UK, so from Land’s End to Newry, Milford Haven to John O’Groats, we can maintain contact with our clients via email, Freephone and by post. We understand how valuable time is, so we dont waste it by asking you to come to our offices to see us. Good for us, much better for you.
