Finance director: monthly package
A lighter mandate for a company that does not need a finance director in-house every day: a monthly report for the owner, controlling (budget, variances, cash flow) and dealings with banks.
We reply on the next working day. We name the fee in writing, in our reply to your inquiry. Scope and timing are confirmed in writing before work starts.

Interim finance director - what does it cost?
The fee depends on the scope of work and is set in writing before work starts. Published fees are on the "Fees and how we work" page.
What is the difference between an interim finance director and a consultant?
An interim finance director works inside the company: runs the finance function, attends board meetings, prepares decisions and recommends. Does not sign in your name or take responsibility for decisions: the owner signs. A consultant advises from the side, from time to time. An interim mandate suits firms that need a finance director but are not ready to hire a senior candidate from outside.
What should a client send with the inquiry?
For business plan: brief business description (1 page), financial statements 2-3 years, organizational structure, top 5 customers and suppliers list. For M&A: your ambition (owner sale, investor acquisition, competitor acquisition), valuation expectation (range), timeline (3-12-24 months). For an interim finance director: current finance function problems, owner's top 3 priorities, existing ERP/accounting system. For restructuring: creditor list with amounts, overdue obligations, account status.
