Experienced CFO support on a flexible or interim basis

A CFO (Chief Financial Officer) is a critical resource for your company’s future growth plans in order to give you the financial knowledge, direction and support needed to drive your business forward.  As well as providing professional oversight for  your business, having a CFO as part of your executive management team gives you financial credibility with your Board, your investors and other stakeholders. Yet many companies do not yet need, nor simply cannot yet afford a full-time experienced CFO.

Our aim is to provide you with the financial insight, guidance and support to help you drive your business performance. Regardless of the current size of your company, we can offer you experienced CFO capability to enhance your existing resources according to your needs. Both the scope of services and the amount of time you require are flexible based on your current needs and affordability.

Well prepared financial projections are a critical part of your business plan and essential for funding purposes. Building these projections requires time, knowledge and very often many iterations.

Having annual budgets in place against which to compare actual performance is a necessary part of day to day financial management. A lot changes over the course of the year so re-forecasting on a quarterly or sometimes more frequent basis is also an advisable practice in order to ensure you know the direction you are heading and to take corrective action where needed.

In order to manage the business you need reliable management information, easy to understand reports, tailored for your requirements, and mechanisms to present and review these.  Additionally, liaising with external stakeholders such as auditors and tax advisors takes time and expertise.
