Outsourced Finance Department

With a Complete outsourced Finance Department and CFO leadership behind you, your business becomes stronger, smoother and far more predictable.

We build the solid financial foundations your business needs, giving you the structure, direction and confidence you’ve been missing - and the ability to grow without guessing.

Here’s what you can expect:

  • Control over the finance function, running smoothly without your involvement

  • Reliable numbers every month so you know exactly where you stand

  • Stronger cash flow that supports day-to-day operations and future plans

  • Clear financial direction to guide decisions and growth

  • Better profitability through smarter pricing, spending and planning

  • A back office that finally feels organised, efficient and under control

  • The freedom to focus on the business instead of tackling the finances

  • Confidence in every decision, backed by real numbers

  • Stronger long-term planning and forecasting for success

The Problems Your Finance Department Should be Fixing... But it isn't

Most financial frustrations aren’t caused by the business - they’re caused by a finance setup that isn’t efficient, proactive or built for growth. When the finance function is reactive or under-resourced, the same issues keep slowing everything down.

Here’s what that looks like inside a business:

  • Reports arriving days or weeks after the period has ended

  • Constantly being chased for information or missing paperwork

  • No forecasting or forward planning in place

  • Not knowing who owes you money - or why it hasn’t been paid

  • No clear view of how much you owe suppliers or when payments are due

  • No visibility on whether you’re actually on budget

  • Month-end dragging on far longer than it should

  • Figures that don’t line up because the detail isn’t being reviewed properly

  • No regular spending reviews to spot waste or unused services

  • A finance function that relies on you to push things forward

  • Processes that aren’t efficient and make getting information harder than it needs to be

  • A general lack of structure, making everything feel slow and reactive

These aren’t small admin issues - they’re signs the finance department isn’t working as it should.


Until these internal problems are fixed, the business will always feel harder, more stressful and less profitable than it needs to.

The Efficiency & Profit Framework

This is the methodology behind everything we do.

Our Complete Finance Department is built on this proven framework - giving you the structure, systems and strategic financial leadership your business needs to grow with control, confidence and long-term success.

Awareness

Are you confident in knowing where your business is now?

Awareness is the first step to transformation - and it starts with understanding your real financial position.

When you know your numbers, you can:

➡️ See your true margins

➡️ Identify the real drivers of performance

➡️ Understand where the cash actually goes

💡 You can’t improve what you don’t fully understand, and this is where most business owners fall behind.

Transformation

How much profit is your back office leaking in your back office?

Efficiency creates freedom, and a streamlined finance function can transform the way your whole business performs.

A well-designed back office delivers:

⚙️ Maximised profits

⚙️ Improved cash flow

⚙️ More time & operational freedom

💡 When your systems, processes and finance department run smoothly, your entire business becomes more profitable and easier to manage.

Success

Do you have a clear plan that keeps you on track?

Success is having a business that gives you profit, freedom and confidence — without the overwhelm.

This stage helps you:

✅ set meaningful goals that align with your lifestyle

✅ stay on track with clear reporting and support

✅ grow confidently without losing evenings, weekends or family time

💡 When your business is strong enough to support your life, not consume it - that’s when success truly starts.

Warehouse Case Study - £4.5m turnover

This warehouse business had plateaued. They were relying on the same customers year after year, spending most days firefighting just to protect their reputation. With no new customers coming in for over 12 months and cash flow constantly under pressure, the business was stuck in survival mode.

The company was making significant losses, with no financial insight into where money was being lost or how to reverse the trend. Reporting didn’t exist, everything was paper-based, and the owner was working harder than ever just to keep things moving.

They didn’t need more staff - they needed structure, leadership and a finance department that actually supported the operation.

BEFORE:

  • Business running at a loss with no visibility on why

  • Average debtor days at 95, putting constant strain on cash flow

  • No reporting structure or financial visibility

  • No control over stock ordering or spending

  • Entire operation fully paper-based, causing delays and errors

  • Ten additional staff hired to complete work that could be automated

  • Low operational efficiency and inconsistent processes

  • Customer relationships strained due to unreliable delivery information

  • No new customers for over a year

AFTER:

  • Business moved from heavy losses to break-even within two years

  • Debtor days reduced from 95 to 33, 60 extra days of cash

  • Full reporting introduced with clear KPIs and financial insight

  • Stock control improved with a structured ordering and review process

  • All paper processes digitised, reducing errors and saving hours each week

  • Workflow efficiency improved so existing staff could manage increased workload

  • Streamlined processes that enabled higher accuracy and output

  • New delivery process introduced, improving transparency and customer confidence

  • Customer relationships strengthened, with fewer complaints and faster communication

Creative Agency Case Study — Team of 6

This creative agency was brilliant at delivering client work but completely in the dark when it came to their numbers. They had no idea which projects were actually profitable, invoices were regularly overdue, and cash flow felt tight every single month.

The owner was relying on gut feeling rather than reliable financial information - and it was stopping the agency from growing.

There was no structure, no forecasting and no understanding of where time or money was being lost.

They didn’t need more clients - they needed financial clarity, direction and a finance department that could keep up with their ambition.

BEFORE:

  • No visibility on which clients or projects were profitable

  • Overdue invoices piling up with no structured debtor process

  • Cash flow constantly tight with no forward planning

  • No forecasting, budgeting or financial direction

  • Owner relying purely on instinct for big decisions

  • No understanding of staff utilisation or project delivery efficiency

  • No regular reporting or insight into how the business was performing

AFTER:

  • Clear profit per client and project, showing exactly where money was being made or lost

  • Automated debtor chasing and a structured credit control process

  • Cash flow stabilised with a 13-week rolling forecast

  • Budgeting and forecasting introduced to support smarter planning

  • Owner able to make confident, informed decisions backed by clear numbers

  • Understanding of team utilisation, pricing and delivery efficiency

  • Monthly management reporting providing insight, direction and accountability

Consultancy Case Study - High Six-Figure Firm

This consultancy had grown quickly, but the finance function hadn’t kept up. Month-end took far too long, systems weren’t talking to each other, and the team had no reliable view of cash flow or upcoming commitments.

The founder was frustrated, working harder than ever, yet still unsure how the business was performing or where profits were slipping away.

Without forecasting, budgeting or consistent reporting, the business was making decisions in the dark. They didn’t need more clients - they needed structure, efficiency and a finance department that could support their next stage of growth.

BEFORE:

  • Month-end taking weeks due to disconnected systems

  • No cash flow planning or budgeting in place

  • Bookkeeping consistently behind, creating delays and errors

  • No clear insight into profitability or upcoming commitments

  • Manual processes slowing down the team

  • Big decisions made without accurate financial information

  • No forecasting to plan for growth or manage risk

AFTER:

  • Month-end delivered quickly with automated, streamlined systems

  • Full budgeting and forecasting introduced for the first time

  • Up-to-date bookkeeping with clear month-end structure

  • Accurate financial insight into profitability and project performance

  • Processes modernised, saving hours each month

  • Founder making confident decisions backed by real data

  • Long-term planning supported with forecasting and financial direction

What makes Profit & Growth Accountants different from other accountants?

Traditional accountants look backwards. They produce year-end accounts, file compliance, and tell you what has already happened.

We operate very differently.

Profit & Growth Accountants functions as your Complete Outsourced Finance Department - combining the discipline of financial control with the insight of CFO-level leadership. Instead of handing you historic numbers, we give you structure, confidence and the financial direction your business needs to perform at a higher level.

You benefit from a team that:

☑️ runs your full finance function with precision and consistency

☑️ delivers reliable reporting you can trust

☑️ strengthens cash flow, systems and financial decision-making

☑️ provides clear insight into performance, profitability and future planning

☑️ supports the long-term stability and growth of your business

Our approach is grounded in clarity, communication and excellence. No jargon. No confusion. No surprises.

You’re gaining a finance department built to strengthen your business and support your success.

What's included in the Complete Finance Department service?

Our Complete Finance Department covers every key finance role your business needs — from bookkeeper and finance manager to financial controller, management accountant and CFO-level oversight. You get the full capability of an in-house team, without the payroll bill or HR headaches.

We handle all financial operations: bookkeeping, VAT, payroll, CIS, management accounts, reporting, profit & loss, cash flow forecasting, budgets and financial controls. It all runs through our Efficiency & Profit Framework to keep your business performing at its best.

Control. Confidence. Success.

Because when your finances run like a well-oiled machine, your whole business performs better.

What if I already have an accountant?

That’s absolutely fine - most clients come to us with an accountant already in place. Your accountant focuses on compliance; we run the financial operations that support performance, cash flow, structure and growth.

We can work alongside your existing accountant for advisory and monthly financial management, or take over fully when you’re ready for a complete outsourced finance department. Our role isn’t to replace what works — it’s to strengthen your financial foundation and support your next level of success.

We run your finance department so you can run your business.

When your financial operations and financial strategy work together, everything else in your business becomes easier.

Do I have to be based in Hertfordshire or Essex or do you work remotely?

No - location doesn’t limit us.

We run finance departments for businesses across the UK using secure, cloud-based systems that keep everything efficient and easy to manage.

Whether you're local or further afield, your finance function runs smoothly, reliably and without interruption.

What's the difference between an accountant and a CFO?

An accountant records what has already happened. A CFO looks ahead — providing financial leadership, insight and forward planning.

A business advisor goes further by helping you understand what the numbers mean for operations, growth and decision-making.

With our Complete Finance Department, you gain all three: accurate accounting, CFO-level direction and strategic advisory support that strengthens cash flow, performance and long-term business growth.

When should I outsource my finance department?

Usually when you’ve outgrown what you have — but most business owners don’t realise this until the cracks start showing.

You’ve likely outgrown your current finance setup if:

✖️ Reporting arrives late or not at all, leaving you guessing where the business stands

✖️ Cash flow feels unpredictable, even when sales are strong

✖️ You never quite trust the numbers you’re being given

✖️ Bookkeeping is behind, or you’re constantly correcting errors

✖️ You’re chasing information instead of being given it

✖️ You’re making decisions without real insight, hoping they’re right

✖️ You can’t answer basic questions quickly (What’s profit this month? Who owes us money?)

✖️ No one is looking ahead, so VAT, tax, supplier payments or payroll catch you off guard

✖️ You’re firefighting, reacting to numbers instead of directing them

✖️ You’re growing, but the finance function hasn’t grown with you

✖️ You feel like you’re carrying the entire financial picture in your head because no one else is

✖️ You don’t have time to step away, because everything depends on you knowing what’s going on

If any of this sounds familiar, your business has already outgrown basic bookkeeping and compliance-only accounting.

This is where a Complete Finance Department changes everything - giving you the full capability of an in-house team, from bookkeeper to CFO, all aligned under The Efficiency & Profit Framework.

We bring structure, accuracy and financial leadership so you can grow without the stress.

When your business outgrows your finance setup, it doesn’t break - it slowly becomes harder to run.

That’s the moment to upgrade.

How often will I hear from Profit & Growth Accountants?

Communication is tailored to your business. During onboarding, we walk you through how everything works - timelines, expectations, how to share information, where to find your reports and how to use each of the tools. We make sure you’re fully comfortable with the systems so nothing feels overwhelming, only streamlined and easy.

As part of the service, you’ll have at least one financial review and advisory session each month or quarter, covering performance, cash flow and upcoming priorities. Outside of that, you’ll hear from us whenever updates, actions or decisions are required.

We’re fully digital, using simple, secure systems that keep your paperwork and information up to date without effort. You’ll always know what’s happening, what we need from you and when to expect your reporting - with clear, consistent communication throughout the year.

What industries do you specialise in?

Our Complete Finance Department works best for established, fast-moving businesses that need stronger financial structure and leadership.

We specialise in:

👉🏻 Warehouse, logistics and distribution

👉🏻 Service-based businesses

👉🏻 Consultancies and professional services

👉🏻 Trades and construction

👉🏻 Creative and digital agencies

These types of businesses benefit most from accurate reporting, improved cash flow, streamlined systems and CFO-level insight.

If your business is growing, evolving or feeling the strain behind the scenes, this service is designed to support you.
