AlbionBusiness Services
Albion Business Services keeps the books, runs the payroll and files the returns for small and growing Jamaican businesses — and when the records are incomplete, we rebuild them until they are defensible.
Plenty of people will take your bookkeeping. Fewer will take the year that was never written up, the GCT that has not been filed since the business started, or the ledger that exists only as a shoebox and a bank statement. We take those too.
The ordinary discipline, done on time, every month — so the year-end is a formality instead of an emergency.
Returns prepared and filed to the deadline, to TAJ, the Companies Office and the Department of Co-operatives.
The year’s figures drawn up from your own books, and the company’s income tax return prepared and filed.
The monthly numbers an owner actually runs on, rather than a set of accounts that arrives eleven months late.
Run on Brawta — the statutory payroll software we built, because nothing on the market got the Jamaican maths right.
For the decisions that come before the accounting — pricing, borrowing, expanding, or whether a venture holds together at all.
A bank asks for three years of statements. A loan application needs figures. A letter arrives from Tax Administration Jamaica. And the business has been running on cash, memory and a drawer full of receipts — which is normal here, and is not a reason to be turned away.
We have rebuilt multi-year invoicing and ledger histories from fragmentary records — hundreds of months of transactions — reconstructed from bank statements, receipt books and whatever else survived, into an audit trail that stands up to outside review. It is slow, methodical work. It is also the work that gets a business bankable.
You are not handed to a junior. The person who meets you is the person who does the work: Charlton Chutckhan, who runs Albion and founded RKhan Investment Limited.
Twelve of those years were at the Urban Development Corporation, ending as Senior Accountant owning a three-day month-end close over J$10 billion in managed funds and reviewing two colleagues’ output through every cycle. The rest has been spent on Jamaican small business — which is a different discipline, and the one Albion is built for.
First conversation is free and it is a conversation, not a pitch. Tell us where the business is and what has been asked of it, and we will tell you plainly what it takes to put it right.
