We understand the realities of running and growing a business, providing the clarity, confidence and trusted financial advice ambitious owners need to move forward.

The company.

We understand that ambitious business owners need more than compliance from their accountants.

They need clarity when decisions are complex, confidence when the stakes are high, and trusted advice that helps them move forward.

about langtons.

We don’t have a solution. We have many, because our clients’ needs are many.

Accountancy and business advice: They are managing risk, protecting value, planning for growth and making decisions that affect employees, customers and shareholders. They need advisors who understand the full reality of running a business, not just the numbers.

Langtons supports these businesses with honest guidance, responsive service and joined-up financial advice that helps them make better decisions and build stronger businesses.

who we support

accountancy, tax, and advisory services for owner-managed businesses and the people behind them.

Many clients come to Langtons when their business is growing, their financial needs are becoming more complex, or they have outgrown a purely compliance-led relationship with their accountant. They may be considering investment, succession, restructuring, acquisition, disposal, audit requirements, tax planning or better financial reporting.

Our role is to help you understand the numbers, see the wider picture and make informed decisions with confidence.

your dedicated team...
experience you can rely on

Reputation

Of course, you need advice that is accurate, current and professionally sound. But you also need people who understand your business, respond when it matters and explain things in a way that helps you act.

Five good reasons…

We give clear, honest advice

We don’t hide behind jargon. We don’t make things more complicated than they need to be. And we don’t tell clients only what is easiest to hear. We give straightforward advice that helps you understand your position, weigh up your options and make informed decisions.

We understand ambitious owner-managed businesses

Running a business brings pressure. You’re managing risk, protecting value, supporting people, planning for growth and making decisions that affect employees, clients, customers and shareholders. We understand that context. Our advice is not just technically correct. It’s shaped around your business, your goals and the decisions in front of you.

We stay close and responsive

Responsiveness matters. When you have a question, a deadline or a decision to make, you need to know your advisors are paying attention. We keep clients updated, respond clearly and make it easier to understand what is happening and why.

We work as part of your wider team

Our best client relationships are long-term partnerships. We take time to understand your business, your ambitions and the people behind the numbers. That means we can act as a sounding board, spot risks and opportunities, coordinate advice across service lines and support you through different stages of growth.

We bring joined-up support

As your business grows, your accountancy and finance needs often become more complex. You may need accounting support, audit, tax planning, corporate finance advice, carbon accounting or access to trusted specialists. Langtons brings that support together, so you have a clear route through complexity and a team that understands the bigger picture.

Our approach

We start by understanding your business.

Before we give advice, we listen. We want to know where you are now, where you’re heading and what is getting in the way. That gives us the context to make our advice useful, not generic.

Where wider expertise is needed, we can work alongside your legal advisers, funders and other professional contacts so the financial advice is joined up with the wider transaction process.

01. We get close to your business

We take time to understand your structure, goals, pressures and plans. That helps us see the bigger picture and support decisions in the right commercial context.

02. We make complex issues clear

Tax, audit, reporting, funding and transactions can be complex. Our job is to make them easier to understand. We explain what matters, what your options are and what needs to happen next.

03. We bring the right people together

You shouldn’t have to join the dots between disconnected advisors. Where different areas of expertise are needed, we coordinate support across our team and, when appropriate, through our wider trusted network.

04. We focus on practical action

Good advice should help you move forward. We give clear recommendations, realistic next steps and guidance you can use in the real world.

05. stay with you as your business grows

Businesses change. Priorities shift. New opportunities and risks appear. We build long-term relationships so we can support clients through growth, change and important business milestones.

Our commitment to a better world

Accountancy and Business Advice

At Langtons we are committed to responsible business. We believe we have a duty to create a positive impact in our community and to play our part towards creating a more sustainable future. This belief is closely aligned with our values as an organisation as we collaborate with our staff, clients and suppliers to take positive steps on the road to achieving net zero.

Although we have long recognised our role within the local community, during 2024 we have taken steps to start the process of reducing our environmental impact. First of all, we needed to measure our baseline emissions. To do this we have partnered with carbon management experts, Trace, to calculate our carbon emissions across Scope 1, 2 and 3.

Next, we collaborated with Trace to formulate our plan for decarbonisation. We are now working towards reducing our emissions and have several initiatives in place to help us achieve that goal. We are committed to reducing our environmental impact and achieving Net Zero and have set out a roadmap to achieve this.

Carbon Neutral

Following our carbon measurement we have opted to offset our emissions by investing in a carbon reduction and biodiversity project through Make It Wild, a biodiversity project in Yorkshire and the Peak District.

In order to offset our 2024 emissions and become Carbon Neutral, we have planted 50 trees in Rowan Tree Farm in the Peak District. We are excited that our Langtons trees will be helping to absorb carbon, produce oxygen as well as supporting insects, birds and small mammals for many decades to come.
