Board Reporting & Board Support

Board packs that drive decisions, not just record history.

What this involves

Clear board-level reporting that helps directors understand performance, risk and key decisions.

Board packs often report everything and decide nothing. We design yours around the decisions the board actually makes, in a consistent format, written for a non-executive reader and circulated to a reliable timetable. We also attend, present and answer the questions rather than leaving you to defend the numbers alone.

Commercial Decision Support

Some decisions are big enough to be worth modelling before you commit to them. We frame the options, model the financial impact of each, make the assumptions explicit and quantify the downside. You get a recommendation with the reasoning shown, and someone in the room when it is discussed.

Growth Planning

Growth consumes cash before it produces it, and that gap is where growing businesses come unstuck. We model your growth options against capacity and cash, identify the investment needed ahead of revenue, and time the funding gap to the month. Unit economics get tested at the scale you intend, not today's.

Investment Appraisal

A single net present value hides more than it reveals. We model the investment across its life, show payback, return and the cash profile alongside each other, and build the downside and breakeven cases explicitly. Afterwards we review what actually happened, which is the part most businesses skip.

Capital Allocation Analysis

Most businesses allocate capital by habit, with each part of the business getting roughly what it got last year. We map where your capital and people currently go, measure the return by activity or division, and compare competing uses on the same basis. You end up with a framework you can reuse each year.

Strategic Finance Support

There is a long stretch where a business needs finance director level thinking but cannot justify a full time hire. This closes that gap: an experienced finance lead working alongside you each month on the decisions that matter, with continuity from the same person rather than whoever is free that quarter.

Strategic Financial Planning

A three year plan built by extrapolating last year is not a plan. We model revenue, headcount, investment and cash together, from the strategy you actually intend to pursue, and identify what funding is needed and when. Then we test it against a downside you would rather not think about.
