Four ways in. One firm behind all of them.
Every engagement is productised: the scope and the outcome are fixed before anything is signed. A finance business partner, structured around what you get.
Pillr delivers that as four defined engagements. Start where you are: find what's unclear, build the foundations, bring in a senior partner for good, or get ready for a deal.
Or come at it by situation.
WHAT A FINANCE PARTNER DOES
A finance business partner sits between the numbers and the decisions, turning reporting into forecasting, and forecasting into the calls that move the business forward.

01
THE DIAGNOSTIC
Sprint
A fixed-duration diagnostic to find and unblock what's holding the business back. The default first step when something needs to change and you can't yet name what.
02
THE INFRASTRUCTURE
Build
The systems, controls and reporting a scaling business needs and doesn't have yet. Build turns the diagnosis into a finance function that works.
03
THE PARTNERSHIP
Scale
An ongoing strategic finance partner in the room for the big calls. Senior finance judgement at board level, without a full-time hire.
04
THE TRANSACTION
Deal
Finance infrastructure built for the room you're about to walk into: a fundraise, an exit, a refinance, an acquisition. Ready before the process starts, not during it.

HOW WE WORK
Every Pillr fixes its scope and its outcome up front, so you know what you're buying and when it's done. One firm behind all four, with the seniority to make the call.
Let’s chatA finance business partner, structured around outcomes. Fixed scope. Defined outcome. Senior operators.
Questions founders ask:
What is a finance business partner?
A senior finance operator who works inside the business: shaping decisions, owning the numbers and carrying the function.
How is this different from hiring a finance director?
A finance director is a hire: one person, a salary, and a role description written before anyone has diagnosed the problem. A Pillr is an engagement: scoped to what needs to change, delivered by operators who've held the seat, and finished when the outcome lands.
Which Pillr should we start with?
Sprint, if you can't yet name the problem. Build, if you know the foundations are missing. Scale, if the foundations are there and you need senior finance judgement in the room. Deal, if there's a transaction on the horizon. Not sure? That's what Sprint is for.
How quickly can you start?
A first call within a few days. A Sprint can usually be scoped on that call and under way within two weeks. Deal work depends on the timeline you're facing, so earlier is always better.
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.
