Most growing businesses have finance people who are good at their jobs, but not yet senior enough (or not yet given the room) to push back on a leadership decision. The gap isn't competence, it's seniority and standing. Without it, big calls get made on optimism rather than being properly tested first.
Challenges
WHAT THIS MEANS

A senior finance voice at the table is what's missing when leadership decisions get made without anyone senior enough in finance to challenge the assumptions, not just report the numbers.

What usually happens

Leadership decisions get made on the numbers as presented, because nobody in the room is senior enough, or positioned, to stress-test them first.

Questions we get asked

Is this the same as hiring a fractional CFO?

It's built on the same idea (senior finance experience without a full-time hire), but it's structured around what your business actually needs right now, not a fixed job description borrowed from a bigger company.

How much time would this actually take up each month?

It varies by business, but Scale is typically structured as ongoing, regular involvement: enough to be genuinely useful in the room for the decisions that matter, without the overhead of a full-time role.

What if we're not ready for that level of commitment yet?

Sprint is the lighter starting point: a focused diagnostic that shows exactly where the gap is, so you can decide what level of ongoing support actually makes sense before committing to anything bigger.

OUR APPROACH

Getting started is simple

Get in touch and we'll set up a short call to talk through where things stand. If a Sprint is the right next step, we'll scope it there and then. If it's Build, Scale, or Deal, we'll tell you that too, and why.
