Frequently Asked
What does an outsourced finance department actually do?
Everything an in-house finance team does – plus automation extras. We handle bookkeeping, reconciliation, VAT, payroll, management reporting, cash-flow forecasting and board-level insight, minus the salary bill.
Will I still have control over my business finances?
Not compared with hiring. You avoid wages, NI, pensions, holiday cover and recruitment fees – and pay only for the support level you need.
Is it expensive to outsource your finance department?
Not at all. Outsourcing your finance department can reduce the overhead cost associated with salaries, recruitment, training, taxation, pension, holiday, sick pay and more. With our outsourced services you get access to team expertise, rather than an individual having knowledge in one aspect only. Also, you pay for the level of support you need.
Is outsourcing finance department suitable for small businesses?
Absolutely — in fact, it’s often the small and growing businesses that benefit the most. You don’t have to hire an entire finance team, yet you get access to qualified bookkeepers, payroll experts, VAT specialists, and even FD-level insight — all at a fraction of the cost. From cloud-based accounting solutions to real-time management insights, we ensure streamlined finances and peace of mind. For compliance guidance, see the UK Government’s outsourcing controls.
How do I know if it’s the right time to outsource my finance department?
If spreadsheets, reconciling your cloud software and HMRC deadlines eat the hours you should spend on customers and growth, it’s time. When bookkeeping, payroll, credit control or forecasting spill into your evenings, we should talk.
