If you run a UK limited company, the law requires certain corporate records and filings to be maintained under the Companies Act 2006. Directors must ensure that statutory information is accurate and submitted to Companies House on time.
For many small and medium-sized businesses, these responsibilities can become complex as the company grows.
My Accountancy People Limited provides professional Company Secretary services for UK SMEs, helping directors meet their statutory obligations while maintaining strong corporate governance.
Our company secretarial service ensures your company records are accurate, compliant and investor-ready.
A Company Secretary helps ensure that a company complies with its legal and regulatory obligations.
For SMEs, this typically includes:
• Maintaining statutory registers
• Filing documents with Companies House
• Recording shareholder and director changes
• Preparing board minutes and resolutions
• Managing share allotments and transfers
• Maintaining accurate corporate records
Although UK private companies are not legally required to appoint a company secretary, the responsibilities still exist and they remain the responsibility of the directors.
Professional company secretarial support helps ensure these obligations are properly managed.
We provide a comprehensive range of services to support UK companies.
Companies House Filings
We ensure statutory filings are prepared correctly and submitted on time.
Services include:
• Confirmation statements
• Director appointments and resignations
• Changes to registered office
• PSC updates
• Share capital changes
Every UK company must maintain statutory registers, including:
• Register of members
• Register of directors
• Register of directors’ residential addresses
• PSC register
We ensure these records remain accurate, compliant and up to date.
When companies raise investment or reorganise their share capital, proper documentation is essential.
We assist with:
• Share allotments
• Share transfers
• Shareholder resolutions
• Updating statutory registers
• Filing required forms with Companies House
This ensures the company’s ownership records remain legally robust.
Proper governance requires that director and shareholder decisions are documented.
We prepare:
• Board meeting minutes
• Written resolutions
• Shareholder approvals
• Corporate transaction documentation
These records provide an audit trail of decisions and governance.
Many SMEs only realise the importance of company secretarial records during:
• Investment rounds
• Bank lending due diligence
• Company sales
• Corporate restructuring
• External audit
At that stage, incomplete corporate records can cause delays, additional costs or legal risks.
We provide company secretarial services designed specifically for growing UK SMEs.
Our clients benefit from:
✔ Accurate and timely statutory filings
✔Well-maintained company records
✔Professional governance support
✔ Practical advice on share capital changes
✔ Support during company growth and restructuring
Our goal is simple:
To ensure your company remains compliant while you focus on running the business.
Typical situations include:
• Company formation
• Shareholder changes
• Investment rounds
• Corporate restructures
• Preparation for company sale
If you need a Company Secretary for your UK SME, our team can help ensure your company’s governance and compliance are properly managed.
