I’m opening 2 Fractional FD slots. These slots go fast. Last time I offered this they were gone in 48 hours

This is for established UK businesses where finance has become reactive:

Reporting is slow or inconsistent
Cashflow feels unpredictable
Margin isn’t clear
Month-end takes too long
Decisions feel heavier than they should

The starting point is a Finance Function Review. You’ll leave with:

What’s working
What’s missing
What to fix first
A 90-day priority plan

If you want the details, DM me REVIEW and I’ll send them over.

Most business owners don’t hire a Fractional FD because they ‘want’ one. They hire one because the business is outgrowing reactive finance.

At £500k+ turnover, the risk is subtle: turnover rises, workload rises… but profit doesn’t behave.
Or cashflow feels tight even though sales are strong.

That’s where Fractional FD support is so powerful.
It’s structured leadership: forecast, reporting, margin control, and the operational tidy-up that stops finance being a monthly scramble.

You don’t need a full-time salary on the payroll. You need someone to set the system, lead the rhythm, and give you confidence in your decisions.

DM SCOPE if you want the plain-English overview of what I do (and what I don’t).

The question isn’t “Can we afford a Fractional FD?”

It’s “What is indecision costing us?”

At £500k+ turnover, the hidden costs are brutal:

Underpricing
Margin leaks
Hiring too early (or too late)
Spending without visibility
Reacting to cash shortages instead of planning ahead

A good Fractional FD doesn’t just report numbers - they build the system around them: forecasting, reporting rhythm (with KPI's you actually need not just metrics for the sake of them), controls, and decision support.

If you want my Fractional FD scope in plain English (what’s included, what isn’t, and who it’s best for), DM me SCOPE and I’ll send it.

Financial Operations Restructuring

Sounds a bit scary doesn't it, it's really not!

It's a question of doing a deep dive to see what your finance operation looks like at the moment and how we can help you change with the least disruption to your business.

Stop the wasted time
Stop the wasted money

If your financial operations feel more like a fire drill than a calm, consistent process,

If month-end feels like a fire drill, it’s rarely a “people problem”.
It’s usually a process + structure problem.

I see this all the time in growing businesses:

Reports take too long
Numbers get questioned
Everyone’s chasing info
Cash decisions happen too late
Finance becomes reactive

Finance ops restructuring is basically: designing a finance function that fits the size of your business.
So month-end closes faster, reporting is consistent, and you stop getting nasty surprises.

Want my Month-End Close Checklist (the exact steps to tighten up the process)?

DM me CLOSE and I’ll send it over. No pitch - it’s genuinely useful.

Advisory is what happens when finance stops being a rear-view mirror.

Compliance tells you what happened and keeps you legal.

Advisory helps you decide what to do next - and do it with confidence.

At a higher turnover, the risks aren’t basic errors. The risks are invisible ones: Margin erosion, cost creep, cash tied up in debtors, pricing that hasn’t kept pace with reality.

Advisory gives you a rhythm: monthly reviews, cashflow planning, and clear actions - not just information.

If you’re turning over decent money but still feeling unsure where it goes.

You don’t need more spreadsheets.
You need sharper visibility and someone who can translate the numbers into decisions.

DM ADVISORY and I’ll share what we cover each month.

“Advisory” isn’t a fancy word for more accounting.

Compliance keeps you legal.
Advisory helps you run the business.

At a higher turnover, the risk isn’t usually errors - it’s blind spots:

Pricing that hasn’t caught up with costs
Margin slipping while sales grow
Cash tied up in debtors/stock
Decisions made on gut feel because reports are late or unclear

Advisory gives you a monthly rhythm: performance review, margin check, cashflow planning, and a short list of actions for the next 30–90 days.

If you want an example of a simple monthly advisory agenda (in plain English), DM me AGENDA and I’ll send it.

At a certain stage in your business, finance becomes less about perfect numbers and more about direction

That's not to say that clean data isn't paramount, it is but you can have tidy books and still feel blind.

Because the question isn’t ‘are the numbers correct?’ - it’s ‘can I make decisions with them?’

That’s the gap a Fractional FD fills.

Not replacing your accountant.

Not interfering with your bookkeeper.

But bringing leadership: cashflow you can trust, reporting that actually explains performance, and a structure that stops finance being a monthly scramble.

If your business is growing but the numbers still feel late, messy, or you just don't trust them… it’s not a capability issue. It’s an operating system issue.

Fractional FD - Why do I need one?

If you’re bringing in a higher turnover and still making decisions by checking the bank balance… this is for you.

Most businesses don’t need “more finance admin” at this stage. They need financial leadership.

A Fractional FD helps you move from:

“I think we’re doing okay”

to

“I know exactly what’s driving profit, what’s draining cash, and what we can afford next.”

It’s not about replacing your accountant or bookkeeper. It’s about creating a rhythm: usable reporting, a cashflow forecast you trust, and decisions that don’t feel like a gamble.

If you’d like my Finance Clarity Checklist (what a solid finance function should have in place), DM me CLARITY and I’ll send it over.

Business growth doesn’t start with spreadsheets.
It starts with self-awareness.

Numbers just help you see the truth faster.

If you want strategy that feels supportive, not suffocating, DM me.

The future of accounting is conscious.

The future of finance isn’t colder. It’s wiser.

Conscious accounting helps leaders:
– see clearly
– decide intentionally
– grow sustainably

This is strategy at its highest level.

If you’re ready for a more conscious, strategic relationship with your finances, let’s start a conversation.
DM me FUTURE.
