Andreas Y Kounnis

Hi, I’m Andreas—an accountant who’s been in the trenches with business owners like you for over 25 years.

I understand the long hours, the tough decisions, and that constant balancing act between ambition and risk. Whether you're running a startup, managing a growing business, or preparing to exit on your terms, my goal is to help you make smart, tax-efficient decisions with total peace of mind.

I qualified as a Chartered Certified Accountant at 22, and since then, I’ve been fortunate to work with clients across countless sectors—from tradespeople, retailers, and creatives to FCA-regulated firms and property developers. I’ve helped them navigate everything from VAT headaches and cash flow crunches to business sales and succession planning.

Some of the ways I support small businesses include:

  • Choosing the right structure (sole trader, partnership, limited company, or LLP)
  • Setting up tax-efficient payroll, dividends, and director remuneration
  • Incorporating portfolios and family-run operations
  • Planning exits with MVLs, CVLs, or Business Asset Disposal Relief (formerly Entrepreneurs’ Relief)
  • Using trusts and wills for long-term protection of family wealth
  • Dealing with HMRC: from routine enquiries to full disclosures (including COP9)
  • Managing FX and treasury strategies for firms with international reach

Many of my clients tell me they don’t just want an accountant—they want someone who’ll pick up the phone when they need clarity, explain things in plain English, and offer an honest opinion when it matters most. That’s exactly what I bring: not just technical know-how, but a calm, consultative approach that’s there for the good days and the tough ones too.

If you’re looking for grounded, strategic advice from someone who truly gets what it’s like to grow a business—I'm ready when you are.
