Transformation & Turnaround

In times of change or uncertainty many organisations need external help and expertise to re-evaluate their strategies and plans.

Our clients engage us to work with the business operating flexibly as an embedded part of the team, working alongside founders, CEOs, boards and sponsors of small and mid-tier firms to help them work through short term challenges, develop options for the future and drive the change they need.

The Numitas team of more than 100 CFOs and finance directors have experience of small family run businesses to mid-market corporates.

The work we undertake can be a wholesale turnaround across the whole entity or smaller projects relating to specific aspects of the business.

Examples:

● Restructure and simplify product pricing to maximise revenues
● Transform a segment of the business that is running inefficiently,
● Pivot the business model to improve margins
● Close an underperforming part of the business
● Consolidate multiple locations to reduce costs

Operating flexibly, we provide extensive capability under a range of engagement contracts, at short notice.
