When the finances run through you
Strategy and finance for owners and leaders
A finance director who thinks in strategy, not only in reports.
01
Three ways to work together
Our clients are small and mid-sized companies: the finances have already outgrown the spreadsheet but have not yet grown into a full-time finance director.
Most people start with the diagnostic: it shows what is really going on. After it you can see whether a finance director or a partnership is what you need.
Business Diagnostic
When it is unclear what is really going on inside. We come in through the numbers and work through the business layer by layer, from finance to people.
→Fractional CFO
When the work is at director level but does not need a full-time hire. The finance director’s role, without one on the payroll, including across several jurisdictions.
→Strategic Partner
A partnership built around results: the strategy of the whole company, from the goal to reaching it, alongside you and your team.
→Know which one fits? Write to us and we will start there. Not sure? Write anyway and we will work it out together. Write to us →

What it takes from your side
The strongest decisions come out of working together: you know the business from the inside, we bring the numbers and the view from outside. Here is what that takes from your side.
Your time
Regular sessions and the preparation for them: not a lot, but it has to be in the calendar
A willingness to look at the numbers
Including the ones you would rather not see
A part in the decisions
We bring the picture, the options and a recommendation, and you choose
A horizon
A diagnostic takes weeks, change inside a company takes months
