Our Story
Whether you’re a company, a charity organisation, a sole trader or a business partnership – you’ll find your home at Vaughan & Company. From taxation, auditing and accountancy, to getting a start-up off the ground and handling your payroll – we provide the full solution, and it comes complete with our years of shared knowledge and experience.
Vaughan & Company was formed by Michael Vaughan in 1992 – making the company one of the longest-established independent accounting firms in Ennis. Michael had a vision back then: to provide value-for-money financial support to local businesses. He was committed to bringing best-in-class practice to all sectors of the community – and this is still true today.
Paula Ryan joined the firm and became partner in 2002, with John Byrnes completing the partnership in 2004. Today the company works across all industry sectors – with both local and national clients. The company is completed by a team of accountants, as well as a full administrative and support department.
Mission
At Vaughan & Company, our vision has always been to use the power of knowledge and skill, together with excellent personal service – to become an accountant firm of choice for people and their businesses. One of our strengths has always been the interest we take in our clients’ companies and the relationships we forge with them. We believe our role is to walk with our clients every step of the business road, helping them to navigate the often challenging terrain of taxation and company accounting. Far more than providing accounting solutions, we add value to every client’s experience – while freeing them up to focus on their bigger business picture.
