About Vicki Goldsmith (Nee Sanders)

One of the first Zoho Books certified advisors within the UK, I know how to get the best out of the system in the most effective and efficient way possible. With the added knowledge of my bookkeeping and accountancy, I can bring a new perspective to the set up and migration of the accounts. Qualifying with the AAT in 2011 and then setting up my own accountancy practice within the same year. I truly believe accountancy should be open and transparent for the business owner to understand their figures.I’ve helped directors understand their Director Loan Accounts and subsequent tax implications, helped identify errors in the Gross Profit percentages and identified issues with stock management all resulting in the continued growth of the business.I’m a true believer in technology being there to help not hinder and with the introduction of cloud based accountancy programmes I was an early adopter of Xero. My practice was 100% cloud based using apps for data submission, cashflow forecasting, data extraction, employee expenses control, mileage tracking and stock management. We also rolled out G-suite to clients to remove the need of spreadsheets and unnecessary email usage. Our bookkeeping and administration reduced by over two days per week bringing in these changes.We fully rebranded to Numerical Insights in 2018 and then I sold the company a year later. I am still passionate about providing forward thinking financial services to SME’s and offer a practical approach for day to day accounting. I am keen to empower businesses to take the lead in their own growth and development.Since 2019 I have been working in my role as a Financial Controller - putting in processes, policies and procedures to enable the directors to make fully informed decisions on where the company is heading. Within Goldstar, I help multiple corporate clients migrate from standalone accountancy packages to a fully synchronised ERP system; helping these companies use technology for finance where possible, saving them time and money.

  • Infinite Playgrounds
    Financial Controller
    Infinite Playgrounds May 2019 - Jun 2020
    Heathfield, England, United Kingdom
    This is project based company but needs an agile approach as deals with sales, design, full onsite manufacture and nationwide installation of children's playgrounds. Spread over two sites, I have worked with the directors to bring a more cohesive way of working for both staff and CX. I'm responsible for all aspects of the finance department but largely working with managers of different departments to help them understand their profitability and report on their KPIS. I produce monthly management accounts detailing variance against budgets for the company overall but also per department and per project.The projects can vary in value and can be either a local authority tender or from a private school. Both require complex reporting and planning in terms of cashflows, stock management and capacity. There are also outside influences to consider due to seasonal trends.I've introduced varying policies and procedures allowing for the tightening of financial control.There is lots of opportunity to continue with the processes I have put in place, allowing the company to to grow and flourish. It is my goal to ensure the financial processes, systems, and controls are operating effectively and driving continuous improvement.Lastly, I submit quarterly VAT returns. The payroll is to be brought in house from April 2020.
  • Numerical Insights Ltd
    Director
    Numerical Insights Ltd Mar 2011 - May 2019
    Hastings
    I was the proud owner of an accounting business which offered a range of financial services to small and medium sized enterprises. We specialised in Xero and were the leaders in our area for recommending other technologies in an 'app stack' to enable businesses to grow and work more efficiently. We provided a bespoke, cost effective service focussed on saving our clients time and fought hard to become a paperless office. Numerical was "Highly Commended" at the 1066 Business Awards in 2015 for outstanding customer service and was fully licensed and regulated by the Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT).I sold Numerical in 2019. This was not an easy decision but something I had to do. Running a business is hard and although I grew both professionally and personally, I wanted a change and to apply what I learnt to one business as opposed to my ever growing client base.
  • Amadeus Performance Equipment Ltd
    Financial Director
    Amadeus Performance Equipment Ltd Sep 2012 - Nov 2016

    During this time, I was also Finance Director for the sister company Amadeus Acoustic Solutions Ltd. Both companies required complex monthly management reports along side the monthly PAYE and CIS duties and quarterly VAT returns.Amadeus Acoustic Solutions was more project based, designing and building music rooms suitable for schools, recording studios, music rehearsal and performance venues. Working on imports from Europe, visiting the manufacturing factory in Italy and negotiating price and volume was key. Myself and my Co directors grew the company to the most profitable years it had ever had. We pushed on reviewing budgets per project and exploring variances, constantly looking to work more efficiently on the next project.Amadeus Performance Equipment Ltd (APEL) provided furniture and equipment for orchestras, schools and performance venues. This involved more stock management monitoring lead times, resources and limiting factors such as capacity planning or seasonal variances. Again, during the time I was Finance Director, APEL had its most profitable years.
