FD as a Service
Financial Director as a Service
Outsourcing Financial Director Services is a popular choice for many businesses. Big and small. By hiring a part time financial director, many companies feel safe in the knowledge that a professional can look after the nitty-gritty financial tasks whilst staff can concentrate on more important things!
What is a Financial Director?
A full time or part time financial director is an experienced person who can step in and take the reins with the financial side of your business. Often seen as similar to an accountant, an FD is different because they can also suggest better-informed decisions and assist you and your directors with a range of financial responsibilities.
A part time FD will be someone who you can trust with your financial management whilst keeping control at all times too. They’re the perfect balance for helping drive the business forward with their expert knowledge, whilst you get back to running your business with complete confidence that the job is getting done.
Generally, a part time FD will offer services such as monthly management accounts, maintaining relationships with banks and overseeing KPIs.
For a full list of services you can outsource to financial director services, read on.
Why is it important to outsource for Financial Director Services?
Simply put: not every boss, board member or director has the time or even the experience to look after the small (yet absolutely essential) financial tasks that come alongside running a business.
Although many find it quite difficult and scary to hand over the reins of this area of their business, the benefits more than make up for it.
By allowing a part time FD to take on tasks like accounting and risk assessments, you can focus on other areas of the business that need your attention more.
Plus, a skilled FD will bring a wealth of knowledge to the role with unbiased advice and help with tough decision making.
Any knowledgeable FD will also have the skills in place to help you save money in the long run too. Whether that’s by making better-informed decisions, or bringing progressive ideas to the table.

Financial Director Services: why hire a part time FD instead of full time?
Do you think your current staff load have the time and ability to look after such tasks like:
- Profit and loss cash flow forecasts
- Assisting with creating budgets including balance sheets and cash flow
- Monthly management accounts
- Attending board meetings or management meetings as required
- Maintaining relationships with external advisors
- Investing in plant, machinery or equipment
- Advice on improving the efficiencies and overall profit of the business
Not only would it be impossible to distribute such tasks around your staff force, it actually works out more expensive to have current employees on the payroll to deal with financial director services.
By hiring a part time financial director, you can use them as and when they are needed and rest safe in the knowledge that the work they’ll be doing will also save you money in the long run.
In addition: many SMEs would like to explore the benefits of hiring a financial director but don’t yet feel ready to commit to using one full time. A part time FD is the perfect balance.
