How Sapphire Bookkeeping Began

It began with a simple truth: most bookkeeping feels colder than the North Sea in February.

We wanted to change that.

Sapphire Bookkeeping was born from one man’s passion for numbers - and a mission to make bookkeeping feel more human. After starting in accountancy at 25 and working from home for years, our founder, Barry Ormrod grew Sapphire into the friendly seaside office it is today.

Now every ledger tells a story, and ours begins with seagulls, salt air, and a belief that bookkeeping should feel clear, calm, and personal.

We take the complexity out of bookkeeping, payroll, and taxes - so you can focus on what you do best.
