Many growing companies reach a point on their path where numbers feel unclear and financial decisions become harder to make.

Hiring a single finance manager seems like the obvious step, but it rarely provides the breadth of expertise needed to support a growing business.

A modern finance function requires multiple skillsets, strategic, technical and operational. Recruiting, training and managing that internally can be expensive and inefficient.

Our Virtual Finance Department solves this.

Your business gets access to a fully resourced finance department, including:
‍
Fractional Finance Director – strategic planning, board reporting, tax advisor, forecasting, decision support.
Finance Manager – systems, processes, controls, month-end accuracy.
Bookkeeping – day-to-day bookkeeping, reconciliations, payables, receivables.
Management Reporting – dashboards, KPIs, cash flow, margin analysis.
Planning & Forecasting – rolling forecasts, budgeting cycles, scenario modelling.

One team, with the right expertise, co-ordinated, consistent and offering the right support at the right time.

Our service gives you:

- Real-time visibility of your numbers
- Confidence in every financial decision
- Predictable cash flow
- Less stress for founders and directors
- Clear financial reporting rhythms

Commercial insight normally reserved for larger companiesIt’s the finance leadership and structure businesses need to scale, at a fraction of the cost of hiring it internally.

Most growing companies consider hiring a finance manager, paying £45k–£60k per year plus software, NI, training and management time.

But that still leaves gaps in expertise and capacity - one person can never replicate a full team.

With our Virtual Finance Department, you receive the expertise of a full team including CFO, Finance Manager and Bookkeeping support, for less than the cost of one mid-level employee.

You get breadth of expertise, resilience, and consistent delivery without recruitment and personnel headaches.
