Tax Advisers & Accountants · Dublin & Nationwide

Tired of waiting for your phone call to be returned?

Most businesses don’t change providers over fees. They change because of the service they receive. OLBK is the alternative: partner-led practice with same-day responses, fixed fees and advice that arrives before the deadline, not after it.

Sound familiar?


Most businesses don’t change provider over fees. They change because of how they feel. These are the five comments we hear most often from the businesses that come to us.

“I email my provider and wait a week for a reply.”

“I find out about tax problems when it’s too late to do anything.”

“It’s unsettling not to know how much our bill will be throughout the year.”

“I never speak to the person I actually hired.”

“My accounts are always months behind, so I’m running the business on guesswork.”

If any of this sounds familiar, you don’t have to put up with it. Here is the standard we work to instead.

What changes when you move to OLBK


Each of those complaints has a direct answer in the way our practice is run. This is what new clients tell us changed.

What new clients tell us they had

Waiting days for a reply.

The OLBK standard

We respond the same working day. That is our service standard.

What new clients tell us they had

Hearing nothing until year-end.

The OLBK standard

You hear from us every month. Management accounts, a managed compliance calendar and a call when something needs your attention, without you asking.

What new clients tell us they had

Tax surprises arriving too late to act on.

The OLBK standard

We plan ahead of every deadline. You know what is coming, what it will cost and what we are doing about it, months in advance.

What new clients tell us they had

Invoices that were never what they expected.

The OLBK standard

One agreed fee, fixed before we begin. If the scope changes, we discuss it first. You will never open an invoice you were not expecting.

What new clients tell us they had

Feeling like the smallest client on the list.

The OLBK standard

You deal with the same senior people year after year. Partner-led is not a phrase we use loosely; it is how every engagement runs.

What new clients tell us they had

Accounts that were months out of date.

The OLBK standard

Cloud accounting keeps your numbers live. You make decisions on today’s figures, not last October’s.

Switching is easier than you think


The fear of a messy changeover keeps many businesses in an arrangement that no longer serves them. In reality, you make one decision and we do the rest.

STEP 01

Talk to us in confidence

A senior member of the practice will call you back the same working day. Your current provider never needs to know you enquired. When you decide to proceed with our services we move towards engaging you as a client and doing all the necessary paperwork.

STEP 02

Send one email

We draft the letter to your current accountant for you. Professional clearance is a routine courtesy between firms, not a confrontation.

STEP 03

We do the rest

Records, Revenue authorisations and handover are all managed by us, with no disruption and no gap in your compliance. And no, you don’t have to wait until year-end.

A complete finance function


From statutory compliance to strategic counsel, we act as a seamless extension of your business, with the depth to handle complexity and the seniority to advise on what matters.

Bookkeeping Accurate, up-to-date books maintained throughout the year, transactions recorded, accounts reconciled and VAT-ready records kept, giving you a reliable foundation for everything that follows.
Payroll & employer services Confidential, accurate payroll for growing teams, PAYE, pensions, benefits and employer compliance managed end-to-end across multiple locations.
Management accounts & reporting Timely monthly and quarterly reporting that gives leadership a true picture of performance, margins, cash flow and KPIs your board can act on.
Corporate & personal tax Proactive tax planning and compliance across corporation tax, income tax, VAT and capital taxes, structuring affairs efficiently and defensibly, well before deadlines arise.
Financial statements & compliance Statutory accounts prepared to the highest standard for companies and groups, filed on time, every time, with findings presented clearly to directors and stakeholders.
Company secretarial Group structures, formations, annual returns and statutory registers maintained with precision, keeping every entity in good standing.
Strategic advisory Senior counsel on the decisions that shape a business, expansion, investment, restructuring and succession, grounded in your numbers and your sector.

Who we work with


Our clients are established and growing businesses across a deliberately broad range of sectors, each served with genuine industry understanding.

Hospitality & restaurants

Restaurant groups, hotels and hospitality businesses, including Michelin-starred kitchens, where margins are fine and the numbers must be finer.

Engineering & manufacturing

Engineering and manufacturing companies with complex cost structures, capital investment programmes and multi-entity operations.

Property

Property investors, developers and landlords managing portfolios, rental income and project finance, where structuring and tax efficiency drive returns.

Beauty & consumer brands

Beauty and consumer product companies managing inventory, distribution and retail relationships at home and abroad.

Professional & business services

Service firms and consultancies where people are the asset and disciplined financial management protects the margin.

And beyond

Our portfolio spans many more disciplines. If your business is ambitious and your standards are high, we should talk.

How we work


A considered, partner-led engagement from the first conversation, built on discretion, responsiveness and absolute reliability.

STEP 01

Understand

We begin with a confidential conversation about your business, your structure and your ambitions, and give you a candid view of where we can add value.

STEP 02

Define the engagement

A clear scope of work and transparent fee structure, agreed before we begin. You will always know who is acting for you and what to expect.

STEP 03

Deliver, continuously

Your compliance calendar managed without prompting, reporting delivered to schedule, and senior advice available whenever a decision demands it.
