SME Growth

What We Do

Introduction

When a company is growing, there is often no need full time finance or HR directors. Those that do bring in a heavyweight find that much of their time is spent on low-value activities. SME Growth allows your business to have a finance or HR director to focus on high-value activities, at a fraction of the cost.

Your Finance Business Partner

From business advice to practical finance assistance, we want to help you make the most of every opportunity. Your part time CFO will be your finance business partner, and will work along side you to help with decision making and strategic planning whether that be simple cash flow management & guidance or strategic performance reporting.

Your HR Business Support

Whether you're looking to start up and are in need of HR business advice in making the right planning decisions early on, or are looking to take your business to the next level and need senior HR support, we provide a range of cost-agile solutions that can be tailored to fit your needs.

Your Business Growth

As your business grows, so will your team. We are able to support your growing back office teams by providing leadership and coaching, as well as helping build your team, whilst allowing you to remain focused on client facing delivery.

How We Do It

Our Methodology
