Why strategic finance leadership matters

At a certain stage, you need more than an accountant. You need someone who can sit alongside you, challenge assumptions, and help steer the financial strategy.

Board-level insight

The strategic financial perspective that takes your decision-making to the next level.

Investor confidence

Professionally prepared financials that show investors you're serious and well-managed.

Fraction of the cost

FD-level expertise without the £120k+ salary. Scale the engagement to fit your budget.

How fractional FD support works

I embed into your business on a regular cadence, typically a few days a month, and operate as part of your leadership team.

1

Scoping session

We define what you need, whether it's a few hours a month or a couple of days a week.

2

Embed and deliver

I join your leadership rhythm, attending meetings, building models, and driving financial strategy.

3

Scale as you grow

The engagement flexes as your business evolves, more support when you need it, less when you don't.

Board reporting, forecasting and KPI tools

This isn't a traditional practice. I built Lean Ledger to be the kind of accountant I'd want as a founder myself, digital-first, clear, and proactive.

100% digitalNo paper, no post, no office visits. Everything via cloud tools and video calls.

Tech-native accountantI code in Python and automate where it counts, so you get speed without sacrificing accuracy.

No jargon, everYou'll understand every line in your accounts. I explain things like a founder, not a textbook.

Proactive, not reactiveI flag issues early and plan ahead, not just file what you give me at the last minute.
