    If any of these ring true, you're not alone — and we can help.

    Growing, but flying blind without proper financial insight?
    Need finance-director expertise but can't justify a full-time salary?
    Struggling with cash flow despite being profitable on paper?
    Approaching the bank or investors and need solid numbers to show them?

    How we make it easy

    Every growing business reaches a point where keeping the books compliant isn't enough — you need someone who can turn the numbers into decisions. A full-time finance director costs a six-figure salary that most SMEs can't justify. Fouracre Accountancy gives you that same strategic insight on a flexible, part-time basis, from a firm that already knows your business inside out.

    As your outsourced finance director, we go beyond year-end accounts to give you management accounts, cash-flow forecasting, budgeting and KPI reporting — the regular, forward-looking picture you need to steer with confidence. We'll analyse your pricing and margins, help you understand what's really driving profit, and act as a sounding board for the decisions that matter.

    And when it counts — raising finance, approaching the bank, planning growth or an eventual exit — you'll have board-ready numbers and a credible plan to put in front of lenders and investors. It's the difference between running your business on gut feel and running it on genuine financial insight.

    Frequently asked questions

    What does an outsourced finance director actually do?+

    The strategic finance work a full-time FD would — forecasting, cash-flow management, KPI reporting, pricing and margin analysis, funding support and decision-making input — but on a flexible, part-time basis that fits a growing business's budget.

    How is this different from your normal accountancy service?+

    Compliance work (accounts, tax, VAT) looks back and keeps you legal. Advisory looks forward and helps you grow — turning your numbers into decisions about pricing, cash, investment and strategy. Many clients take both.

    I'm profitable but always short of cash — can you help?+

    Yes. Profit and cash are not the same thing, and cash-flow problems sink otherwise healthy businesses. We build a realistic forecast, find where cash is getting tied up, and put a plan in place to smooth it out.

    Can you help me raise finance or approach the bank?+

    We prepare the forecasts, management accounts and board-ready reports lenders and investors expect, and help you present a credible, well-evidenced case — so you go in prepared rather than hoping for the best.
