A statutory audit should give you confidence in your numbers — not consume your team for weeks. At Harrison North, we plan and conduct audits that are thorough, targeted, and designed to cause minimum disruption to your business.

Audit that works for your business

A statutory audit is a significant undertaking. Done well, it provides management with genuine assurance about the company’s financial position and surfaces issues that might otherwise go unnoticed. Done poorly, it is an annual drain on your finance team’s time and attention.

Harrison North audits are different. We bring a level of seniority to audit work that is not common in the market — your engagement is led and delivered by experienced staff who know what they are looking for and do not need to learn on the job at your expense.

Targeted planning, efficient delivery

Our audit plans are built around the areas that actually matter for your business. Rather than applying a standard template, we identify the key risks and focus our work accordingly. The result is an audit that goes deeper where it counts and does not waste time where it does not.

Senior eyes across your accounts

Because our work is carried out by senior staff, we routinely identify issues — operational, structural, or financial — that fall outside the narrow scope of the audit itself but are genuinely worth your attention. This wider perspective is one of the less obvious benefits of working with a firm that does not delegate audit work to juniors.

Minimal disruption to your team

We recognise that an audit places demands on your accounts staff. Our approach is designed to minimise that burden: clear requests upfront, efficient communication throughout, and a timetable that respects the realities of running a business.

Quick to mobilise

We are not a firm that takes months to get started. Once appointed, we move quickly — agreeing a timetable, issuing our preliminary requests, and getting on with the work. For companies with tight reporting deadlines or those switching auditors mid-cycle, that matters.

Who we audit

We act as auditor for a range of owner-managed and privately held businesses, including companies subject to statutory audit thresholds, subsidiaries of larger groups, and businesses that choose to have their accounts audited voluntarily for the assurance it provides to shareholders, lenders, or investors.
