Finance Director Services
It is clearly a difficult decision for some directors to let go of the financial reigns and although their expertise lay elsewhere in the business, they may not have seriously considered the value an experienced financial director can add.
Invariably directors who have taken the tough decision to trust an experienced advisor to manage the businesses finances have found that their time is freed up to manage the running of the business generally. Similar to bookkeeping, payroll or filing tax returns the finance director’s role is a position that demands the attention of a qualified and experienced individual rather than an enthusiastic and passionate director.
