About us

Hi, I’m Steffen Kemmerzehl, founder of Friendly Assist Accountancy and an AAT Licensed Accountant

I’ve always enjoyed working with numbers, but what really motivates me is helping people understand their finances, solve problems, and feel more confident about their next steps.

My journey with numbers began in Germany, where I studied and researched at the University of Jena while also tutoring students in statistics and mathematics. This experience taught me that good support is not only about numbers. It is about explaining things clearly and helping people feel comfortable asking questions.

After moving to Newcastle upon Tyne more than eight years ago, I gained experience working in local accountancy firms before completing my AAT qualifications and becoming licensed and regulated by AAT (MAAT).

In 2024, I founded Friendly Assist Accountancy with a simple goal: to provide clear, friendly, and practical accounting support that helps clients feel informed, supported, and in control of their finances.

How we can help

We support sole traders, freelancers, small businesses, landlords, and individuals with UK and international tax matters. Whether you need ongoing accounting support or help with a specific situation, we’re here to help you understand your options and find a practical way forward.

Many clients come to us looking for clarity, reassurance, and someone they can rely on. We take the time to listen, explain things clearly, answer your questions, and help make your accounts and tax feel more manageable.

We believe accounting should be approachable and easy to understand. You should feel comfortable asking questions and confident that your finances are being looked after.

Our aim is to provide straightforward advice, responsive support, and a personalised service that helps you stay on top of your accounts and tax.

Whether you have a question, need some guidance, or simply want to talk things through, we’re here to help.
