Our specialist sectors

Your business is growing, it’s an exciting time and there’s a lot on your horizon, but you could do with extra hours in the day and some additional support to plug the gaps.

Here are a selection of the sectors we work in:

Your Journey
to Business Exit

Selling a business is a journey made up of several stages, each with its own challenges and opportunities. Without the right preparation and guidance, it can be overwhelming, and value can easily be lost.

From early planning and valuation through to negotiations, completion and beyond, expert support is essential. With clear strategy and aligned financial and tax planning, our Corporate Finance team helps you maximise value, protect your interests and achieve an outcome that reflects the true worth of your business.

Making Tax Digital for Income Tax

Making Tax Digital (MTD) is changing how Income Tax is reported, with new requirements coming into force from 6 April 2026. Under the new rules, many self‑employed individuals and landlords will need to keep digital records and submit regular updates to HMRC using compatible software.

Our Making Tax Digital hub explains who will be affected, the key dates you need to know and how to prepare for the changes.

FRS 102 – are you prepared?

From 1 January 2026, FRS 102 will undergo its most significant update since its introduction. These changes aim to align UK GAAP more closely with international standards, improving transparency and comparability.

By using our FRS 102 hub, you’ll stay informed, reduce compliance risk, and ensure your financial reporting remains accurate and transparent. Whether you’re an SME or a larger organisation, these resources will help you navigate the changes confidently and turn compliance into an opportunity for better reporting.

The PEM Charitable Trust

In 2018, we proudly launched the PEM Charitable Trust with the purpose of supporting local Cambridge Charities, no matter how big or small.

Our team continue to fundraise, and all donations now go into one pot. Our Trust committee then considers applications from local charities and causes, and if successful, one-off donations to these charities are awarded. This allows us to help more people a year, and keeps us aware of Cambridge’s most pressing needs.

For more information or to apply please email our Corporate Social Responsibility Officer at csr@pem.co.uk.

PEM team take on the Yorkshire Three Peaks in 2026 to raise funds for the PEM Charitable Trust
