Accountwise: Do you need a Virtual Finance Director?

Many small business owners feel that having access to an experienced, knowledgeable finance professional is a luxury that they simple can’t afford on a permanent basis.  However, we are pleased to say that this doesn’t have to be the case.

Let us ask you a few questions:

  1. Is your business growing, leaving you struggling to control your finances, paperwork and look after strategy?  
  2. Have you reached the point where you realise you need someone with financial expertise, commercial and business experience to support continued success? 
  3. You currently can’t justify employing a full-time finance director?

This is when you should be considering a Virtual Finance Director.  Essentially, they are a business advisor and a source for financial insight who have years of financial and management experience. 

Key services a Virtual Finance Director can offer include:

  • Business planning
  • Managing and controlling cash flow
  • Financial forecasting and implementing financial strategy
  • Accounting system implementation
  • Preparing monthly management accounts
  • Tax planning
  • Contract & Pricing Reviews
  • Exit planning and support
  • Recruiting, managing and retaining financial department staff
  • Liaison with directors to discuss business performance.
  • Keep you fully updated of any regulatory changes you need to be aware of.

The best bit is that you can have all this experience at a far smaller cost than a full-time Financial Director.

So, if you want:
