We partner with small and medium business owners to simplify accounting and taxation, offering tailored, forward-thinking solutions that drive growth and confidence.

As a business owner, you may feel frustrated and overwhelmed by the complexities of accounting and taxation. It’s not just the rules—it’s the uncertainty of whether you're doing things right.

We understand how isolating and stressful that can be, especially when your accountant isn’t providing the support you need.

  • Taxation and financial management are complex, and as a business owner, you're focused on your expertise, not accounting.

    This uncertainty can leave you feeling stuck, unsure of how to grow or plan ahead. Without expert help, you risk missing opportunities or making costly mistakes.

  • Is your accountant more reactive than proactive? Many clients come to us frustrated that their current accountant only reaches out during tax season, leaving them in the dark the rest of the year.

    This lack of communication can lead to missed opportunities for tax planning, unforeseen financial challenges, and a general lack of confidence in your business’s direction.

  • Many accountants focus only on past tax compliance—filing what's already happened—without guiding you forward.

    This leaves you without a clear growth plan or insight into future tax obligations.

    Without a partner focused on your long-term goals, it's hard to feel confident about your business's future.

Let’s be real—tax and accounting aren’t exactly thrilling topics.
But how does easing your business stress, frustration, and uncertainty sound?

Testimonials

FOUNDER'S STORY:

Over 25 years ago, three forward-thinking accountants—David Motteram, Neil Bowie, and Paul Ham—set out to redefine the way businesses engaged with their accountants.

After years of working together in industry, they noticed a glaring gap: while many accountants excelled at ticking boxes for compliance, few truly partnered with their clients to help them grow.

Frustrated by poor communication and the lack of proactive advice available to small and medium business owners, they knew there had to be a better way.

Motteram Bowie & Ham was born from a shared belief that accounting should be more than just numbers—it should be about building relationships.

From the beginning, the firm focused on personalised advice, empowering clients with clear, actionable tax and business strategies to help them succeed.

Today, while Neil and Paul have retired and David now consults part-time, the firm’s legacy remains stronger than ever. With a young, enthusiastic team at the helm, Motteram Bowie & Ham continues to prioritise communication, long-term planning, and the use of cutting-edge technology like Xero to provide tailored business solutions.

We’re more than accountants—we’re your business partners, committed to helping you navigate challenges, seize opportunities, and achieve your goals. It's simple, quality strategy, clear communication and timely advice means your business will grow.

Let’s work together.
