What is a Virtual Finance Director?

A virtual finance director is exactly as it sounds; it’s a finance expert who fulfils the role of a finance director without being on your payroll full time. A virtual finance director can aid business growth, improve your financial performance and help you plan for the future

How can a finance director help my business?

Our virtual finance directors have experience steering businesses through change or growth and assessing financial impacts. We act as a partner in your business to support you when you’re making those all-important financial decisions and help you improve profitability.

From business reporting to accounting and tax implications, we give you a better perspective of where your business is at and where it’s going.

What does a Virtual Finance Director do?

A virtual finance director does everything an in-house finance director would do, but they do it on a part-time and remote basis – no office space needed. Here are just a few of the ways you’ll benefit from working with one of our finance experts:

Your virtual director will:

  • Provide professional advice and financial direction for your business
  • Help you make the right decisions by giving financial insight and advice
  • Assess any potential impacts and challenges your business may face
  • Support growth, turnaround and exit strategies
  • Focus on managing cash
  • Assist with cashflow forecasting
Every business is different, so our services are flexible and bespoke. Contact our friendly team to discuss how a virtual finance director can help you.

How can a Virtual Finance Director improve my business?

When you’re running a business, it can be all too easy to get caught up in everyday operations. Managing employees and ensuring projects run to plan is a huge responsibility. Analysing your finances or forecasting into the future often get pushed down the list of priorities, and this is where a highly skilled virtual finance director can be a game-changer.

What are the advantages of a Virtual Finance Director?

You don’t need to employ an entire in-house finance team to ensure efficient finance systems. It is possible to access all the skills and technology you need without the hassle and cost of recruitment, training, salaries and pensions. Our virtual finance director, combined with our virtual finance department, provides the perfect solution – access to expert advice and an unbiased financial view whenever you need it.
