Welcome to Ascott Blake

Stansted Mountfitchet is a picturesque village in Essex, two miles from Stansted airport. Despite its close proximity to the airport, the village remains a rural oasis and is regularly noted as one of the prettiest villages in the county. The area has a 900 year history and the ruins of a Norman castle is one of its biggest attractions.

London Stansted Airport is one of the largest employers in the East of England, providing 12,000 jobs to locals in Hertfordshire and Essex. The airport was first established in 1943 and today serves 27 million passengers a year.

What Ascott Blake can do for you!

Tax accountants

Taxation is one of the most well-known aspects of accountancy. At Ascott Blake, our tax guidance and preparation is on-point. Whether you need assistance with personal filing or help deciphering and accurately reporting and calculating corporation tax, we have you covered.

There is nothing worse than overpaying taxes, especially when you do not have to. This is why tax accountancy is an important service that we offer. We help various types of businesses report accurately on their expenditure and tax liabilities throughout the year.

If you are a limited company, figuring out corporation tax can be incredibly time-consuming. This is why, at Ascott Blake we ensure that you are only paying what you have to pay to HMRC to remain in good standing. You deserve to get the most benefit out of your company’s annual profits, and we strive to ensure that this is a reality.

CIS and Payroll services

Another often complex financial regulation to keep track of is the Construction Industry Scheme (CIS). Perhaps the biggest amount of confusion of the CIS comes with the regulations required with CIS payroll.

At Ascott Blake, our team of chartered accountants are knowledgable in all aspects of CIS payroll regulations, and we ensure that all parameters pertaining to HMRC are accurately deducted and recorded to relieve the stress of these requirements from you.

Meet Adam Aziz - Chartered Accountant Stansted

I founded Ascott Blake in 2016 after working in the city as Group Finance Director of the Ngage Recruitment Group (formerly Human Capital Investment Group). I initially trained and qualified with a major accountancy firm in London and started my commercial career heading up the finance function at TMF Group who are global outsourcers. I am a fellow of the Association of Chartered Certified Accountants.

I wanted to set up a practice which was commercial and innovative to bring something new to clients rather than just a compliance service. I have focused on creating a service which makes us approachable and speaks in layman’s terms. I want to ensure my team takes control of our clients to really understand what they want to achieve so we can help them to achieve their dreams.

We have a range of clients from trades to large recruitment companies. My specialism is the recruitment sector however the team have a depth of experience across all industries and have gained valuable knowledge which we can pass to clients.
