Testimonials
I have used Lesters as my accountants in Sydney and London - both on their payroll and when I ran my own Limited Company. My main reason for using Lesters for so long is they seem to make sense, they simplify my tax with minimal effort on my part, provide a tailored and personal service, and provide support and guidance for a whole range of other issues that you may not expect from from an accountancy firm - such as finding new contracts and obtaining visas. On top of providing a good service - I also think the rates are reasonable compared with their competitors. I decided to go contracting and was given a list of umbrella companies who could possibly help. I contacted several of them and selected Lesters as they were straight forward and professional.

I am pleased that I selected Lesters because they have been very supportive from chasing companies for payment, ensuring I get paid on time and providing me with reports. They have also suggested I move my account to another type of solution due to being more tax efficient.
In summary if all umbrella companies were as professional as Lesters it would be a difficult decision however it is not.

Telecommunications professional who can deliver
Over the past 6 and a half years I have worked as Network Engineer and Consultant in London. I arranged a meeting with a representative from Lesters in Sydney before leaving Australia. I found the initial consultation informative and straight forward. Upon arrival in the UK I secured contract work, with the assistance from Lesters. The support and guidance their employees provided me was second to none. Throughout, they maintained a high level of efficiency, professionalism and courtesy.
