The partner behind your daily success
I'm Alex, the founder of Behind the Business Office Support.
With a background in Accountancy Practice Administration and Payroll, I understand how much work goes on behind the scenes to keep a business running—and how quickly it can build up when you’re busy.
I set up BTB to give businesses and sole traders someone reliable to turn to for practical, friendly support. From managing emails and paperwork to invoicing, bookkeeping, payroll, CIS and tax return preparation, I help keep the everyday tasks under control.
Whether you need an hour a week, a one-off catch-up or ongoing support, I work around what your business needs, with straightforward hourly pricing and no complicated packages.
Your business, organised behind the scenes.
