Freelance Accountant for Scottish Tax

I need an experienced freelance accountant or bookkeeper familiar with Scottish tax rules, particularly in relation to private hire (taxi/chauffeur work) and vehicle hire income. Your responsibilities will include managing accounts remotely, offering guidance on tax efficiency (whether to operate as a sole trader or limited company), providing VAT advice, and handling end-of-year submissions.

You should be proficient in QuickBooks, Xero, or FreeAgent, with experience setting up accounting software, as I need help establishing mine. Expertise in working with private hire drivers or small transport firms is a significant advantage.

The specific tasks I need assistance with include income and expense tracking, VAT guidance and submissions, and end-of-year tax filings. This is an ongoing, flexible role, offered on an hourly or monthly arrangement.

Please share examples of similar clients you’ve worked with, your rates, and your availability when applying.
