THE PILLRS USED

Sprint to find it, then Scale to hold it

Talk to us

Signals you’re in it

Nobody else can explain how last month's numbers were actually put together

Board decisions are waiting on numbers that take too long to arrive

The finance function hasn't changed in structure since the business was half this size

SITUATION

The Situation

1

What usually happens

The business either rushes a replacement into a role built around one person's habits, or limps along without one. Both leave the same gap: nobody has actually looked at what the finance function needs, only at who used to do it.
1

What usually happens

More gets asked of the same setup until it's stretched past what it can reliably do, and nobody's stopped to rebuild it for where the business actually is now.
CHALLENGES

How we get you ready

1

Reporting, stabilised

Month-end and board reporting kept running while the gap gets fixed properly, not papered over.

A function built for the next stage, not the last one

Structure and people shaped for where the business is going.

Senior judgement, in the room

An operator alongside you for the calls that matter, not a report after the fact.

Questions we get asked

How quickly can you step in?

Fast. A Sprint diagnostic can start within days, and stabilising reporting is usually the first thing we fix.

How is this different from hiring a finance director?

Scale is a partnership, not a hire: senior finance judgement without the time or cost of a full-time appointment, scoped to what the business actually needs.

How involved is Pillr day to day?

As involved as the business needs. Some clients want a few days a month, others want someone effectively in the room every week.

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.
