Scaling up with finance expertise

We have been working with an early stage agricultural company who were experiencing increasing business revenues due to results of trials they were undertaking around Europe. Our Finance Director worked on a part time engagement as an addition to the leadership team to support the MD and contribute to strategic and tactical decision making in order to scale up this rapidly growing business.

Our client has benefited from being able to make better decisions which supported the continued growth of the business. The MD received immediate expert financial support at a fraction of the cost and at a more senior level than a scale up would receive from a full time hire.

The scope of work our part time Finance Director undertook included:

  • discussing goalskey prioritiesindustry threats and challenges with the senior team.
  • reviewing current financials and associated processes, systems and controls.
  • ensuring back-end finance functions could scale efficiently with growth.
  • developing good reporting and KPIs for the management team.
  • creating forecastingbudgeting and longer term models.
  • providing commercial input to deals, pricing, client negotiations etc

The Numitas Finance Director provided added value for our client by:

  • providing excellent recommendations and attention to detail to support the business in scaling up
  • working collaboratively and proactively with the team
  • taking on more responsibility as the business grows
  • exceeding expectations and keeping to strict deadlines.

“We are very happy with our Numitas Finance Director.They have been an excellent addition to our team and came at the right time as we emerge from a start up and scale our business. We woulddefinitely useNumitas again and have been very pleased with how our expectations have been exceeded.“
