Who I am
Hi, I’m Steven Ambrose, founder of MTD Trade Books.
I started MTD Trade Books to provide a simple, affordable and reliable bookkeeping service for tradespeople, so you can focus on running your business while I take care of the numbers.
I understand the challenges of running a trade business and the importance of clear, accurate records, especially with the changes brought in by Making Tax Digital.
My aim is to give you straightforward advice, personal support and a service that makes bookkeeping easy and stress-free.
