Choosing a audit firm in Birmingham
How to choose: (1) match the firm to your size and stage — a landlord and a 40-person company need different people; (2) confirm the qualification for regulated work (CPA, ACA / ICAEW, ACCA, CA (CA ANZ, CPA Canada, SAICA), CIMA, EA (US Enrolled Agent), Steuerberater, Expert-comptable); (3) ask for a fixed fee in writing; (4) check they use software you can log into; (5) talk to one existing client in your sector.
As one of the larger markets in the United Kingdom for accounting, Birmingham firms range from sole practitioners handling personal returns to multi-partner offices running statutory audits and outsourced finance functions. If you are early-stage, a smaller local firm is usually faster and cheaper; above the audit threshold you will want a firm with a registered auditor.

FAQ
- Does my company need an audit?
- Usually only above size thresholds (revenue, balance sheet total, employee count) or if investors, lenders or your governing documents require one. Thresholds vary by country — see below.
- Can my accountant also be my auditor?
- No — the auditor must be independent. A firm can offer both services but not to the same client for the same period.
