Saving Time for your Business
Based in Brentwood Essex, STB Consultancy provides personalised, time-saving consultancy services that make business life clearer and easier.
We speak your language.
Our knowledgeable and trustworthy consultancy services cover every small business need: from basic book-keeping, accounts preparation and tax returns to full compliance, VAT, and directors’ self-assessment.
But that’s not all.
STB Accountants was founded in 2012, and rebranded as STB Consultancy in 2025, by Sharon Burrows, a former entrepreneur and business trouble-shooter.
Sharon’s extensive experience means she knows exactly how it feels to make knife-edge decisions, face down complex challenges, and promote sustainable business growth.
Further demonstrating her passion for numbers, in 2023 Sharon was elected to the Board of Directors known as the AAT Council. You can therefore rest assured that all work undertaken by STB Consultancy will be completed to the highest professional standards.
Yet as the co-founder of a successful City-based consultancy that solved complicated problems and turned failing businesses around, Sharon’s advice doesn’t only focus on the numbers, but what they mean.
Because just like words, numbers tell stories.
Numbers explain what’s really going on in your business. That’s something you need to know before you can make important decisions – like buying equipment or hiring a new member of staff – and plan for growth.
So we won’t just do the adding and subtracting. We’ll also talk about how those all-important numbers could help you achieve your business goals.
We’re proud that our client list spans a wide and diverse range of businesses, from sole traders to limited companies employing large teams of people.
Think about the difference it would make to not have to worry about calculating, submitting, and interpreting the numbers in your business.
What might you do with the extra time – not to mention the detailed business insight and bespoke expertise – that comes from working with STB Consultancy?
- You could work on wider business strategy, safe in the knowledge that you’re moving in the right direction.
- You wouldn’t have to worry about how and when to deal with HMRC.
- You would have the listening ear of an experienced professional who is not only fluent in numbers, but has also walked in your shoes.
Sharon’s unique blend of friendly relatability and practical, experience-based advice sets STB Consultancy apart from larger, more traditional consultancy firms.
