Your Finance Team

A strong finance team can be the difference between thriving and stagnating, survival or going under.

A strong finance team can be the difference between thriving and stagnating, survival or going under.

However, having the right expertise to navigate not only the compliance needs of the UK, keeping HMRC and Companies House happy, but as well the commercial awareness to help your business remain profitable, is expensive.

An experienced management accountant or financial controller can cost at least £50,000, along with taxes, pension, training needs and sickness cover. It’s a role which is hard to hire for with most small businesses.

Inevitably this role ends up doing everything in the function, and you’re left at times employing an extremely expensive bookkeeper, or with not enough work to occupy them, for a hefty salary.

Our solution is our tried and tested Your Finance Team service.

Here is how it works.

Assessing the need

We will look at your business in great depth, to understand what exactly it needs. For example, you may only need a bookkeeper for two days a week, or a financial controller for 4 days a month. By doing this, and making the most of our experienced team, we can then provide a cost effective offering which gives you exactly what you need, but can scale with your growth too, all without the complications of costly and time-sapping hiring processes.

Setting up your team

You will most likely be introduced to your team of three, consisting of:

  • A bookkeeper who can manage the day-to-day activity of your business and work within your process
  • An experienced accountant, acting as gatekeeper of quality and ensuring everything is to the technical standard needed
  • Oversight from our Managing Director, to ensure service is as expected, to the quality you need

Continuity

We will design detailed process notes, not only to confirm our understanding, but to provide seamless continuity so you are not impacted by sickness or absence.
