Description

Location: UK-wide — remote, hybrid and on-site arrangements
Rate: £400–£600 per day depending on sector and complexity
Basis: Self-employed, one to three days a week per client
Start: Ongoing — we are building a panel

We are expanding our panel of fractional Financial Controllers. Demand from UK businesses between roughly £3m and £25m turnover has grown steadily, and the constraint is no longer client appetite — it is finding experienced Financial Controllers who want to work this way and are good at it.

This is not interim cover. Fractional arrangements are part-week and ongoing, typically one to three days a week, and the good ones run for years. Most of our clients are businesses that have outgrown a bookkeeper and an external accountant but cannot justify a full-time FC at around £108,000 fully loaded. What they need is somebody accountable for the numbers being right — and most of that is review rather than production, which is why it compresses into part of a week.

We are interested in hearing from people already working fractionally, and equally from experienced Financial Controllers considering the move for the first time. If it is the latter, we will be straightforward with you about what the work is actually like and what it pays.
