Why utilise an outsourced finance department rather than build your own?

Here are just some of the reasons:
* You can use your time & resources to focus on your core business
* The team can flex immediately to your growth
* Receive multiple skills without the cost of multiple people - bookkeeper, management accountant, financial analyst, payroll clerk, financial controller, tax expert, FD
* You have an expert term at the start that are focused upon helping you grow your business
* You have a whole finance team for the fraction of the cost
* You will receive a regular, dynamic, reporting pack that adapts as your business changes and grows

This model works really well for fast growing businesses. It can also work alongside businesses that may have just have one accountant or part-time finance director in the business and can ensure they focus on their key skill areas and fulfill the other functions. It is perfect for non-UK businesses launching in the UK as enables them to focus on perhaps sales & marketing whilst all the back office functions are taken care of by us. We have clients worldwide who like this model, including Australia, Germany, US & Japan.
