Would your business benefit from having the dedicated services of a Finance Director? Don’t have adequate resources to justify the cost of hiring a full time professional? A part-time Finance Director could be the answer
Many businesses struggle to effectively manage their financial functions, due to a lack of expertise and time. Hiring a full; time finance professional is prohibited by cost and using the services of the reporting accountant is also an expensive option and often lacks the deep understanding of the day to day requirements of financial management.
A Finance Director can provide a wealth of financial services which could have a significant effect on the success, growth and profitability of your business, employing one on a part time basis on a daily rate can bring access to these benefits as an affordable option.
Services that a part-time Finance Director can bring to your business include:
Production of realistic business plans that contain clear and achievable goals.
Review of expenditure and implementation of cost saving schemes
Production of management information that enables better understanding and appreciation of business performance and facilitates better decision making
Identification of Key Performance and ongoing monitoring of their achievement
Budgets and Forecasts against which actual performance can be measured and assessed
Raising short or long term finance
Cashflow control
Improvement of business relationships with banks and external advisors
Mentoring and development of finance staff
Business acquisitions or disposals
Improvement of financial controls and processes
Benefits such as these and many more can be achieved with the use of a part-time Finance Director. Typically, 3 days per month can cost no more than a full time finance assistant. There are no employment issues to worry about, no paid sick leave, holidays or pension contributions and no Employer’s National Insurance contributions to pay.
