How engagements work

What working together actually looks like

Every engagement follows the same disciplined path, from first conversation to measurable financial improvement.

01

Financial health check

A structured review of cash position, margins, reporting quality and forecasting accuracy, delivered as a short written summary with the three priorities that will make the biggest difference.

02

Cash and profitability plan

A 13-week cash flow model, debtor and supplier terms review, and a margin breakdown by service, product or contract so pricing decisions are based on evidence rather than instinct.

03

Reporting and KPI rhythm

A monthly management pack and KPI dashboard the leadership team can read in ten minutes: cash runway, pipeline, utilisation, gross margin and the variances that need a decision.

04

Automation where it pays

Finance and operational admin reduced through practical automation, built and proven in a real service business before it is recommended to anyone else.

Bring clarity to your next business decision
