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

Experienced board-level advisors to help your business sharpen its direction, lift its performance and plan for what comes next

Beaconsfield owners can bring Secantor in as a part-time or interim Finance Director, CFO, Non-Executive Director, Operations Director or Management Accountant. Your advisor joins the leadership team, helping you test your plans, support your people, decide with more confidence and make the business work harder for you. It is senior experience, challenge and a sounding board, without the cost of a permanent executive.

We also help businesses in the nearby villages and across south Buckinghamshire.

Secantor works with owner-managed businesses in Beaconsfield that want senior capacity alongside the owner, providing part-time Finance Directors, CFOs, Non-Executive Directors and Operations Directors.

Beaconsfield and the towns around it have a mix of professional and financial services, media and creative firms, property and consultancy businesses, many of them owner-run. In businesses like these the owner often carries the strategy, the key relationships and the numbers at once, and could use a senior colleague to share the load.

Typical prompts are a lender asking harder questions, an offer for the business, a key person moving on or simply a feeling that the next stage needs different skills. Senior help for a few days a month fits that need, and an interim advisor can step in at short notice. Our article on the benefits of an interim CFO sets out how that works.

Which Secantor Advisor Would Suit Your Beaconsfield Business?

Secantor offers Beaconsfield businesses experienced Fractional Finance Directors, CFOs, Non-Executive Directors and Operations Directors, and many owners find that one advisor brings the range of experience they were looking for.

Advisors combine a core discipline with practical commercial and board-level experience, and where something more specialist is needed they can turn to colleagues across Secantor and our network of professional contacts. We introduce the advisor whose experience and personality look the best fit, and we are glad to introduce more than one if you would like to compare.

The areas we are most often asked to help with are:

Growth, funding and exit: a Fractional CFO to build the plan, raise the money and prepare for a sale.
Numbers you can steer by: a Fractional Finance Director for forecasts, cash and profit reporting.
An independent sounding board: a Non-Executive Director to question assumptions and keep the board accountable.
Cover during change: an Interim Finance Director or Interim CFO while you recruit, restructure or transact.
Better operations: a Fractional Operations Director to tighten processes and build the management layer.
Timely management reporting: a Part-Time Management Accountant for accurate, regular reports.

Beaconsfield owners most often ask Secantor whether an advisor can lighten their load, what the cost looks like and how it fits with their accountant and bank.

Can an advisor really lighten the load for a busy owner?

Yes. A good advisor takes ownership of defined pieces of work, such as forecasting, funding or board reporting, so you can spend less time firefighting and more time on the decisions only you can make.

What does board-level support cost in Beaconsfield?

Time with a Finance Director, CFO or Non-Executive Director is billed at £1,200 a day plus VAT and expenses, and our guide to how much a Fractional CFO costs in the UK shows how that translates into a monthly commitment.

Can you help with funding or a refinancing?

Yes. Our advisors prepare the forecasts and lender information that banks and investors expect, and can introduce funders where that helps. Read more about how we help you optimise your finances.

Is there a way to test the business before we commit to anything?

Yes. Our Strategic Business Review gives an independent view of the business across the areas where owner-managed companies most often have gaps.

Would a Non-Executive Director suit a business like ours?

Often. A Non-Executive Director is most valuable when the owner wants an experienced outsider to challenge plans and share the weight of big decisions. More about the role is on our Non-Executive Director page.

How do you work with our accountant and bank?

Alongside both. Your accountant keeps the statutory work and your bank keeps its role, and Secantor adds senior board-level guidance and can help you manage both relationships. We do not provide bookkeeping or outsourced accounts.
