Part-Time Finance Director, CFO And NED Services In Aylesbury

Experienced board-level advisors to help your business set direction, strengthen its leadership and grow with purpose

Through Secantor, owner-managed businesses in Aylesbury can bring in a part-time or interim Finance Director, CFO, Non-Executive Director, Operations Director or Management Accountant. Each advisor becomes part of your leadership team, helping you plan the next stage, strengthen the people around you and run a more profitable business. It is board-level experience, challenge and support without a full-time salary.

Our advisors also work with businesses in the villages around Aylesbury and across the Vale.

Secantor works with owner-managed businesses in Aylesbury that have outgrown what the owner and the current team can deliver alone, providing part-time Finance Directors, CFOs, Non-Executive Directors and Operations Directors.

Aylesbury is Buckinghamshire's county town, with a broad base of manufacturing, logistics, construction, healthcare and professional services businesses. Many are founder-led and growing, and the owner is often still the person holding strategy, people and performance together.

That works until it doesn't. A new contract, a second site, a key person leaving or a sale on the horizon can show where the business needs more than one person's judgement. Senior support for a few days a month closes that gap, and an interim appointment steps in for a defined project or a leadership vacancy. Our article on how to build business value buyers truly pay for is useful reading for owners thinking ahead.

Which Secantor Advisor Is Right For Your Aylesbury Business?

Secantor provides experienced Fractional Finance Directors, CFOs, Non-Executive Directors and Operations Directors to owner-managed businesses in Aylesbury and across Buckinghamshire, and in many cases a single advisor can provide the breadth of experience a business needs.

Our advisors bring broad commercial and board-level experience alongside their core specialism, so they can handle financial, strategic and operational challenges together. Where a business needs extra specialist skills, they can draw on the wider Secantor team and our network of professional contacts.

We match each business with the advisor whose experience and personality suit it best, and can introduce more than one if you would like to choose. The main areas of support are:

Strategy, growth and funding: a Fractional CFO to shape growth plans, secure funding and prepare for acquisitions or a sale.
Financial performance and control: a Fractional Finance Director for cash flow forecasting, profitability and management reporting.
Independent board advice: a Non-Executive Director as a sounding board who strengthens governance and accountability.
Temporary senior cover: an Interim Finance Director or Interim CFO during recruitment, restructuring or change.
Operational improvement: a Fractional Operations Director to improve efficiency, processes and the management team.
Management information: a Part-Time Management Accountant for timely reports and performance analysis.

Aylesbury owners tend to ask Secantor how an advisor fits alongside their team, what the cost looks like and what happens at the start.

How does an advisor fit in with our existing team?

An advisor joins your leadership team and works with your people and your board, taking on the senior work you need and developing the people around you along the way.

What does board-level support cost in Aylesbury?

Our Finance Director, CFO and Non-Executive Director days are charged at £1,200 plus VAT and expenses. The guide to how much a Fractional CFO costs in the UK sets out what that means month by month.

Can you help us prepare the business for sale or succession?

Yes. The aim is a business that a buyer or a successor can step into with confidence, with a stronger management team and clearer numbers. See our exit planning support.

Our margins are under pressure. Where do we start?

With a clear view of where the business makes and loses money. Our advisors review pricing, costs and mix, and help you act on what they find. Our article on pricing for profit explains how.

Can an Aylesbury business appoint a Non-Executive Director?

Yes. Many owners value a Non-Executive Director for the independent perspective: someone to talk big decisions through with, test plans against and keep the board accountable. Read more about our Non-Executive Director service.

Do you replace our accountant or finance team?

No. Your accountant keeps doing what they do best, and Secantor adds the senior board-level layer on top. We do not provide bookkeeping or outsourced accounts.
