How Soon To Engage An Accountant?

[Fathomable]

I'm currently permie, going contract next month. I've set up a company, purchased the necessary insurance and got a business bank accountant. I don't want to handle the accountants day-to-day, so I need to get an accountant. Probably an online-only FreeAgent accountant like Gorilla or Dolan.

Hi everyone,

I will start working as a subcontractor next July (2014)
Would like to know if you have any pointers on how to set up my trade?


Cheers,
Jay
