BUZZ ACCOUNTINGA UK practice that already works your way.
The firm was built remote-first for UK business owners. It turned out that's exactly what expats need.
Built digital-first — which turns out to be exactly what living abroad needs
Buzz Accounting is a licensed UK practice (AAT) working with hundreds of businesses and individuals, with offices in London, Manchester, Wigan & Leigh and Northern Ireland — and its own registered company in Pretoria, South Africa. Expat Accountants is the same firm pointed at one job: UK tax for people who live somewhere else.
We were never a shake-hands-across-the-desk firm. Bookkeeping on Xero and FreeAgent, returns filed with commercial software — the kind that can actually file the non-resident pages — answers on WhatsApp, documents by portal. Your being in Dubai or Toronto changes the tax analysis. It changes nothing about how we work.
Founded and run by people who have done it themselves
Andy Jackson
Co-Founder & Operations Director
Builds professional-services businesses rather than just advising them — he has bought and integrated accountancy firms himself. Leads the systems and technology that make a UK practice work for clients nine time zones away.
Peter Allen
Co-Founder & Financial Director
More than 20 years in practice; built and grew his own firm client by client before co-founding Buzz. Sets the quality bar for every return that leaves the building — including the ones with residence pages.
The people who do the work.

Rochelle
Semi-Senior Accountant
Prepares accounts, tax returns and management figures for a broad mix of owner-managed businesses — many of them run from abroad.
Mary
Semi-Senior Accountant
Accounts preparation and tax — the person keeping the detail straight on the day-to-day client work.
What being a client actually looks like.

- Deadlines diarised for you: 31 January, your 60-day clocks, NI back-years
- Documents by portal, signatures electronic, nothing by post
- Your local accountant kept in the loop where you have one
