Accounting & Finance

CFO & Controller Services

Financial leadership for the decisions ahead. Connect reporting, planning, controls and commercial priorities in a clearer management perspective.

Discuss your priorities

The wider perspective

When the business has outgrown founder-led finance.

Financial decisions depend on more than a set of numbers. We connect the underlying records, the purpose of the reporting and the tax or commercial questions that sit alongside them. The result is a clearer basis for management, owners and their advisers to act.

Expertise in context

CFO & Controller Services

The work, organised around your priorities.

  1. 01

    Growth

    The business has expanded beyond informal financial management.

  2. 02

    Limited visibility

    Numbers arrive, but management cannot read the operating picture clearly.

  3. 03

    Reporting without decisions

    Reports exist, yet they do not help choose what to do next.

See the connections

One decision. A wider impact.

CFO & Controller Services work across the system that turns records into management information — above day-to-day bookkeeping, and broader than planning analysis alone.

We identify the dependencies early, so the relevant professionals can work from a shared understanding of the objective and the information available.

From perspective to action

When the business has outgrown founder-led finance.

Engagements vary. The work may include some or several of the following — not every matter requires every element.

The engagement begins with a shared view of the questions to resolve, the work to be delivered and who is responsible. As the matter develops, the plan can be reviewed against new information and changing priorities.

In practice

Different situations. A considered response.

01

Growing US business

Financial leadership and control sit beside planning, corporate tax and corporate legal work as the operating picture becomes more demanding.

02

Transaction or investment

Controller discipline and management information stay with transaction accounting, transaction tax and corporate legal work on the same matter.

03

International expansion

Financial leadership continues across borders while reporting, international tax and business administration hold the wider operating structure.

What information is useful at the outset?+

Relevant agreements, correspondence, key dates and your intended outcome. We will identify what needs to be clarified before agreeing the engagement.

How does this connect with other advice?+

Accounting, tax and cash flow can describe different aspects of the same transaction. Those differences need to be understood before a decision is made.

How are fees and timing agreed?+

The relevant professionals review the circumstances, available information and dependencies. Scope, responsibilities, fees and the timetable are then agreed for the specific engagement.
