Strategic

Know which work makes money

This is not more reporting. We take responsibility for the finance function, connect the systems the business actually runs on (accounting, projects, time, pipeline, payroll) into one live view.

Is this the right level?

This is for you if

You find out a job lost money after it has been delivered
Revenue is growing and the bank balance is not
You quote new work off instinct rather than off last year's margins
Nobody but you reads the management figures

This is not for you if

Your bookkeeping is not reconciled yet: start with Essential
You need someone in board and funder meetings: that is Strategic
You only need a tax return: Duna Accountancy & Tax will do it for less

What you get

Every month, without asking

A management pack with margin broken down by job, client and service line, not just a profit and loss in total.
A rolling thirteen week cash forecast, updated against actuals rather than rebuilt from scratch each quarter.
A monthly review call where the numbers get explained and the decisions actually get made.
Everything in Essential: reconciliation, controls, and a ledger you can rely on.
Questions answered between calls, without a clock running.

Where you are at day 90

The change you should expect

You can name your three most profitable clients and your two worst, with the numbers behind it. You know what next quarter's cash looks like. And when a large job comes in, you can tell before you commit whether you can afford to take it.

The questions we get asked

Can you talk to our bank or investors directly?

Yes. Funder reporting and sitting in those conversations is part of the tier, and it is usually where the fee pays for itself first.

How much of your time do we actually get?

[NEEDS ANSWER. State the cadence explicitly: board or leadership attendance, review calls, and ad hoc access. Vagueness at this price reads as a fudge.]

We already have a management accountant internally.

Good, and this is not their replacement. They produce the numbers. This is the person who sits opposite you and argues about what to do with them, which is a different job and usually a lonely one for an owner.

What happens when you are away?

[NEEDS ANSWER. State the real cover arrangement and handover documentation. Do not imply a bench that does not exist yet.]

Why not hire a part-time finance director instead?

A three day a week FD is 70,000 pounds plus employer costs, plus recruitment, plus the risk of getting the hire wrong. This is one person's judgement against a practice with systems behind it, and you can stop in ninety days. When you do reach the point of hiring, we help you write the role and sit on the panel.
