ABOUT HUW BOWLES

I have been a part-time Finance Director to small business with turnovers from £1m-£20m for the last 13 years. Most of my clients have been growing rapidly and have hit a point where the Founder is running out of time trying to keep on top of producing and analysing the monthly accounts and they feel they need a Financial Controller to do this and also give them a different perspective on things. Rather than pay an expensive person to do your bookkeeping 5 days a week, you could get a part-time Finance Director (me) from as little as £500 per month.Interested? Read more below or send me a message so you can get back in control of your numbers.(Neither the following nor the Exec Summary above have been written by AI)I use trend analysis of the key drivers of profitability to provide business owners with the insights they need to make good strategic decisions and generate profitable growth. Even if business owners review their accounts on a monthly basis, a standard P&L will not show which areas of their business are under performing and which areas need more investment or to be given greater prominence.A lot of accountants focus on cost control, tax and compliance whereas my focus is business and profit growth.To do this I ensure that the business owners and directors have a clear understanding of how they want the business to develop and the actions needed to achieve this target.We have monthly review meetings and the report and accounts I prepare, focus on progress in these key strategic areas.I see lots of businesses which have grown successfully to a point but have then plateau\'d or started to trend downwards as they have hit a barrier to further growth. This can often be an inability to retain or recruit new staff to allow the business to grow, but a key limiter is also management bandwidth and key financial insights. I have been providing these insights to businesses for the last 12 years and all have shown significant profitable growth over this time. You will be amazed at what having an FD for just 1/2 day per month can achieve and as a result you can have a Finance Director from £500 per month.If you own a growing business, but feel you haven\'t the time to analyse the key drivers of performance and sense that you are missing some key insights into how to maintain the growth of your company, then please contact me so we can explore a cost effective solution for you.
