Senior Financial Expertise Without the
Cost of a Full-Time CFO

Growing businesses often reach a point where traditional accounting is no longer enough. You may need financial forecasting, strategic planning, performance analysis and senior-level financial insight, but hiring a full-time CFO may not yet make sense.

That’s where Count & Cardinal Consulting’s Fractional CFO service can help.

We provide flexible access to senior financial expertise, working alongside business owners and management teams to improve financial visibility, support decision-making and help turn business objectives into practical financial plans.

Strategic Financial Support

Strategic Financial Planning

We help translate your business objectives into practical financial plans, giving you a clearer understanding of what your goals mean financially.

Cash Flow Forecasting

We develop cash flow forecasts that help you understand expected income, expenditure and future cash requirements.

Budgeting & Forecasting

We can prepare budgets and financial forecasts that allow you to compare expected performance with actual results and identify changes that may require attention.

Management Reporting

We create useful management information that gives you greater visibility over revenue, costs, margins, profitability and financial performance.

Business Performance Analysis

Financial information becomes more useful when it explains what is happening in the business. We analyse key financial indicators to help identify trends and areas requiring attention.

Invoice Attachment & Easy Access

We securely connect supplier invoices to your accounting system, making it easier to find supporting documents whenever you need them for reporting, reviews or audits.

Scenario Planning

Business decisions rarely have only one possible outcome. We can model different scenarios to help you understand the potential financial consequences of expansion, investment, recruitment or other strategic decisions.

Growth & Investment Support

When you're considering growth, investment or major changes, we can provide financial analysis to help you understand the numbers behind the opportunity.
