How Our Team Can Help

The Finance People offer a range of services to help businesses get access to the very best finance resource for their business and their budget.

What can our experienced Finance Experts do?

Whether you choose to outsource your finance function to us, or take on a virtual, interim or part-time finance resource, all of our people are experienced in all areas of financial management including:

Management Information

Our Finance Directors will gather information and provide monthly reporting of key financial statements and can include:

​

  • Balance sheets

  • Profit and Loss (P&L)

  • Key Performance Indicators (KPIs)

  • Plus, much more.

Cash Flow Forecasting

Most businesses fail because they run out of money but a robust cash flow management system will prevent this. The right accounting and finance staff will help put in place:

​

  • Strategies if you run out of cash

  • Contingency plans to secure loans if there is a shortfall

  • Regular performance reviews to prevent the above happening in the first place.

Mentoring & Training

A senior Finance Director will effectively coach and mentor your operational finance staff, ensure all of your employees work to a high level and have opportunities to progress and ultimately benefit your business. A Finance Director from The Finance People will make sure the finance function is fit for purpose and support and nurture your finance staff.
