Numbers you can trust, on land or at sea.
Higginson James is a UK accounting and advisory practice built around three disciplines: core accounting and tax, CFO-level advisory, and specialist support for the maritime sector.
- Accounting & Tax — accounts, corporation tax, VAT and self-assessment, handled properly and on time.
- Advisory & CFO — the financial thinking that usually only larger businesses get access to.
- Maritime Services — crewing, engineering and refit support, plus consultancy on yacht financing, tax and ownership, grounded in Yachtmaster-level, high-latitude sailing experience.
