Accountants for Pilots

With more and more airlines working with airline pilot contractors over the past decade, the finances of self-employed pilots (and those working as their own limited company) have necessarily become more complex. This creates a need for specialist accountants for pilots.

Whether you’re looking for an employer to commit to long term or taking full advantage of the contractor lifestyle, working with many different airlines, some things will always be the same. Managing your finances takes up time that could otherwise be spent building your business (or enjoying its rewards), tax returns have a due date, and your records should always be ready for HMRC checks if needed.

You may also be paid for some if not all of your work by overseas companies who keep their records in another currency. This isn’t too unusual these days – we also work as accountants for creatives and influencers, who have similar requirements – but it’s still important to keep track of.

With a dedicated accountant on your side it can be a lot easier (and much quicker) to get and keep your books in order. And if you use ICS Accounting, you can also take advantage of our fantastic £400 cashback offer!

No Obligation, Jargon Free Accountancy Advice for Pilots

When you’re comparing different offers for work, there are many different factors that might help your decision. The financial aspect is just one of those – but it’s an important one! Sometimes it can be difficult to clearly understand which of two contracts is actually the better deal. Is a higher overall payment more important, or better pay per hour worked? If it’s a short contract, how will it affect your likely tax obligations at the end of the year?

Being able to speak to an independent accountant familiar with your business and ask for clear, no-obligation advice can be a huge benefit when you’re making decisions about your work.
