Fractional and Interim CFOs for entrepreneurial businesses.

‘Successful people surround themselves with successful people’.

Whether you need an operational CFO or a start-up specialist, an agent of change or a driver of growth, a fundraiser or exit specialist, Isosceles has the right CFO for your business.

Uniquely behind every Fractional CFO is a large team of accounting and HR specialists.

For start-ups:

Solid foundations.

Time and resources are precious. Focus should be on product and client development. We offer flexible, effective access to CFO skills at a fraction of the cost of a full-time resource. Our start-up CFOs will share your workload and support you to create the solid foundations needed for success.

For growth:

With growth comes change

As your business matures the role of the CFO changes. The skills required to drive growth are different from the more operational skills required of a start-up. We provide access to industry-specific experts working with some of the UK's most successful companies.

For exits:

Creating a winning formula

A CFO with transaction experience is critical to a successful exit, and their presence can be the driver that gets the deal completed successfully. Our CFOs help entrepreneurs achieve a successful exit at premium values. We understand what makes a winning formula and will create a compelling proposition.

Fractional CFO.

High-calibre Fractional CFOs with a wealth of experience and practical know-how at a fraction of the cost of a full-time resource.  This means you get access to CFO-level expertise when you need it – paying for only what you use.

MORE

Our CFOs are flexible and have experience in all stages of development from start-up, fundraising, through growth as well as exits and can support you on whatever basis best suits your business and your senior management team; a few days a week, a few days a month or on a project-by-project basis.

We specialise in supporting ambitious, rapid-growth companies.  All our Fractional CFOs are accustomed to adapting to diverse cultures, working styles and ownership models, which means they will add value from their first day.

Interim CFO.

An Interim CFO is very similar to a Fractional CFO, but there are a few subtle differences.  A Fractional CFO works with businesses on a long-term fractional basis, whereas an Interim CFO is temporarily engaged for a specific time to replace a departing CFO, cover a leave of absence, or deal with a particular situation.

 

MORE

For example:

  • Covering an absence (e.g. long-term illness or maternity, paternity or adoption leave)
  • Covering the unexpected departure of the existing CFO whilst a replacement is recruited
  • Leading a turnaround situation
  • Preparing the business for sale
  • Acquiring a new business
  • Launching a new product or division
  • Setting up an overseas subsidiary
  • Prepare for and leading a fundraising
  • Setting up a joint venture
  • Mentoring a newly promoted CFO

Uniqely behind our Interim CFOs is a team of accounting professionals which enables us to resource your project with the most effective and efficient blend of resources.  If we think the requirements can be met more cost-effectively then we will tell you, and save your business some money in the process.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS.

I trust Isosceles with one of the most fundamental parts of my business. I have complete confidence in all their staff; they have never let me down.

CEO, IT services provider

Ancoris wanted a partner that had extensive experience in dealing with these type of transactions and a negotiation style which was win/win. Isosceles was able to manage the expectation of the seller so that a realistic valuation could be agreed to both parties’ satisfaction. Isosceles helped keep the transaction simple and straightforward, they are very easy to work with.

David McCleman CEO

We needed a flexible individual with a high level of commercial acumen who could confidently fill the role of Finance Director.

CEO, software development company

Isosceles made my life easier from start to finish. They focussed on my business, looking after day to day accounting requirements and acted as trusted advisors, providing a valuable sounding board when I needed it, but often the service was light touch and excellent value.
