WORK HISTORY
Owner @Glass - Chartered Accountants & Growth Partners
Leeds, GB
GLASS is not a traditional accountancy firm.It’s a structured system designed to give business owners control over their numbers.Most businesses don’t struggle because of tax or compliance.They struggle because they don’t have clear, current visibility on what’s actually happening.That’s what we fix.We work with small and medium-sized UK businesses (typically under £5m turnover) who want to understand:• What’s actually making them money• Where margin is leaking• What needs to change to grow properlyA lot of business consultants promise this level of insight.In reality, it’s almost impossible to see any of it without the right financial infrastructure behind it.If your numbers aren’t accurate and up to date, you’re not analysing the business. You’re guessing.Accountancy is common sense once you understand it.The problem is most businesses are never given a structure that makes it clear.Our work is built around a simple progression:Step 1 ComplianceAccurate records, accounts filed, and tax handled properly. The foundation.Step 2 Real TimeYour numbers, current and reliable.This is where the business stops being reactive.You can plan for tax instead of chasing it.You can see performance month by month.You can identify issues early and start improving margins.No surprises. No guesswork. Just numbers you can actually use.Step 3 GrowCFO-level support for businesses ready to scale.We go deeper so you can clearly see:• Which revenue streams actually drive profit• Which jobs or projects are underpriced• Where cash is tied upWhen you look at it like this, it’s not complicated. It’s just structured.
ABOUT JOE WALTON
I’m a Chartered Accountant with experience in both practice and industry. Those two perspectives shape how I work with business owners today. In practice, I learned how to create order from incomplete records and still produce reliable numbers. In industry, I saw what happens when those numbers are used properly. Decisions improve. Risk reduces. Growth becomes deliberate rather than reactive. Yet most small businesses are still relying on gut instinct, without the numbers to properly support their decisions. That usually leads to uncertainty, stress and avoidable mistakes. That’s why I founded GLASS. We guide business owners through a clear progression. It starts with Compliance.We bring everything up to date, ensure the numbers are accurate, and build strong foundations. No loose ends. No uncertainty around deadlines. Once that foundation is solid, we move to Real Time.Your numbers become current and visible. You understand performance month by month. Decisions are made with clarity, not hindsight. Finally, for businesses ready to scale, there is Grow.This is ongoing strategic support. Detailed KPI reporting. Forward planning, cash flow visibility and structured thinking that helps you expand deliberately. The journey is simple. First clarity. Then control. Then growth. We don’t just file accounts. We help owners build businesses that feel controlled, profitable and intentional. Businesses that work for them, rather than the other way around. Learn more at glassaccounts.co.uk.
