How we help

You see it in every second meeting. The SME owner who can't produce clean management accounts for a lending application. The founder whose financial model wouldn't survive five minutes of investor scrutiny. The business that's growing fast but can't explain where the cash is going. You know they need help. But recommending a full-time CFO doesn't make sense at their stage — and sending them back to their accountant won't fix it either.

Fractional CFO

Strategic financial leadership. Forecasting, fundraising, board reporting, and commercial decision-making. For clients who need a senior finance voice at the leadership table.

Fractional Financial Controller

Financial rigour and accuracy. Management accounts, controls, compliance, and reporting quality. For clients whose numbers need to be reliable before strategy can follow.

Fractional Finance Manager

Operational finance ownership. AP/AR, payroll, reconciliations, budgets, and day-to-day financial management. For clients where the basics need to work properly first.

At The Finance People, we provide SMEs with experienced, senior finance professionals on a flexible, part-time basis. Not consultants who write a report and leave. Embedded finance leaders who become part of your client's team.
