How we work with you

  • A senior partner leads every account and is your point of contact. There is no account-manager layer.

  • Reports and meetings in Arabic or English, as you prefer.

  • Your systems stay in your company's name, and a confidentiality agreement is signed before we receive any file.

  • Every monthly meeting ends with agreed actions, each with its expected value in riyals where it can be measured.

What Numera does and what licensed professionals do

What Numera does

Books
Every transaction is recorded and reconciled to the bank each month, and the records for your VAT returns, Zakat and year-end statements are ready before each deadline.
Controls
Approval limits, KPIs, the budget and the cash forecast, so management sees each month whether the company is on plan.
Decision support
Analysis for financing, investment and pricing decisions, set out in riyals before the company commits.

What licensed professionals do

Tax returns and audits are reviewed, signed and filed by the licensed tax advisers and audit firms the company appoints.

The company appoints a licensed tax adviser and, where the law requires one, a licensed audit firm. We work with a network of both in Saudi Arabia and the UAE and prepare the records they need, so management has one point of contact for the whole cycle.
