At MJ Goldman, we see ourselves as more than just accountants. Yes, naturally we do accounts. But we do much, much more than make sure that tax liabilities are settled on time.
We give our clients a wider ranging, rounded offering of financial services to support your business as it grows towards its goals.
MJ Goldman are about business partnering and advice from practitioners that have worked with the challenging issues and pressures of commerce. Our senior executives can draw upon experiences gained in-house through financial director and board level positions, from SMEs to blue chips, combining the best of professional practice with the rigours of being in business.
MJ Goldman Business Partnering Services typifies what makes us more than an accountancy practice. This set of key services enables enterprises to analyse, budget and plan on the strong foundations of tried and tested information systems that work.
If you need to review accurately the position of the business, plan strategy or raise finance, this bespoke service geared towards your specific needs is there. If you want to reward staff with share options or are looking for an exit strategy, we have the experience to reach your goal.
Our clients range from start-ups to multi-million pound turnover companies, many that we have been assisting since they briefed us on their enterprise and its ambitions many years ago. Indeed, our high rate of client retention is a sign that we are doing a great job. If a client has used our virtual financial director service and has grown to the point that it makes sense to transfer the position full-time and in-house, we see that as success.

Our client has multiple businesses (over 10) and a diverse range of business support requirements that differ across their portfolio.
Opting for our Business Partnering service, the client needed a fast and flexible support package, as with an ever changing set of requirements, a standard set of accountancy tools was never going to be right for them.
The client required both a full scope of accountancy work plus the development of the necessary in depth knowledge and experience of their businesses. Rather than sitting back and waiting to be asked, our team needed to act proactively and provide a functional “head of finance”.
MJ Goldman were also required to look at new business opportunities and advise on them and their suitability as an investment.
As the client puts it, “It is really useful to me that the Goldmans solution and work goes well beyond standard practice stuff – my requirements include banking, correspondence and dealing directly with my business contacts including both suppliers, customers and banks.”
We’ve even been asked to train and coach other team members the client has performing different functions for their business.
Given the complex nature of the client’s requirements we did not want to limit the support package offered to regular accountancy practice. Our approach with Business Partnering is to be able to tackle anything the client throws at us both competently and in a timely manner.
What the client says about the solution we offer, “It’s like having my own bookkeeper, accountant, tax adviser, banker, commercial FD & process expert all wrapped up in one, Barry’s attention to detail is second to none”.
“I am always impressed by the ways in which Barry’s Business Partnering function develops the necessary expertise to cope with all of this and delivers the same great service across all my portfolio”
“It’s my own personal finance director and his team which I can dip in and out of whenever it suits”
We have worked with this client for over four years now, both in a close advisory role and in dealing with all of their financial affairs to keep them in good order.
MJ Goldman have developed a highly efficient accounting infrastructure for the client and are confident our team will deliver the right services and give instant access to whatever financial information they wish to see.
This is how their owner sees our support package:
