Our Leadership & Partners

STF-AI-Bureau operates with a focused core leadership structure supported by specialist partners in tax, compliance and AI engineering.

This model ensures senior attention, operational discipline and the technical depth required for modern financial systems.

Helen Collins
Head of Accounting Operations

Helen leads accounting operations at STF-AI-Bureau, bringing over 20 years of financial and operational experience across retail, construction and hospitality sectors.

Her career has been grounded in practical, hands-on finance — from bookkeeping and reconciliations to supplier management, reporting structures and financial controls within fast-moving commercial environments.

This cross-industry depth enables her to understand not just accounting mechanics, but the operational realities behind the numbers — stock pressure in retail, project cost control in construction, and margin sensitivity in hospitality.

At STF-AI-Bureau, Helen oversees implementation integrity, structured reporting, reconciliations and day-to-day financial discipline across client environments.

Her focus is simple:
Financial systems must work reliably, consistently and without noise.

TAXSTRAT
Specialist Tax Partner

Where required, we collaborate with John Brockbank of TAXSTRAT to support:

  • Corporate and individual tax compliance

  • Provisional and annual tax submissions

  • VAT advisory and review

  • Audit preparation and liaison

  • Regulatory reporting alignment

 

John operates independently, providing professional tax oversight and advisory expertise to ensure compliance integrity and statutory accuracy.

This structure ensures clear separation between:

  • Accounting system execution

  • Financial reporting discipline

  • Independent tax review and compliance sign-off

FIRMDEV
Specialist AI Engineering Partner

We collaborate with FirmDev to design and deploy advanced automation tools and data systems.

 

FirmDev provides the engineering depth required to build scalable, production-grade AI solutions that integrate cleanly into live business environments.

 

This partnership enables:

  • Custom workflow automation

  • API integrations across platforms

  • Structured data environments

  • AI-assisted validation and anomaly detection

  • Scalable system architecture

 

By combining accounting discipline with specialist engineering capability, we deliver systems that are both technically sound and operationally practical.
