Senior Finance Support for Founder-Led Businesses

Cunos Consulting provides experienced UK finance oversight for founder-led businesses — outsourced finance leadership, 13-week cashflow forecasting, month-end reporting, finance controls, and retained advisory without the cost or commitment of hiring a full-time Finance Director.

We work with founder-led SaaS businesses, digital agencies, professional services firms, e-commerce brands, and consulting practices across London and the wider UK — typically £1m–£25m in revenue, where finance has outgrown basic bookkeeping but a full-time Finance Director is either too expensive or too soon.

The problem: finance has outgrown the setup

As your business grows, the finance setup that worked before begins to slow you down. Invoices go out late. Payments become reactive. Reports take longer to prepare. Errors are harder to spot. Finance becomes a bottleneck rather than a tool.

What Senior Finance Support covers

• Invoicing — Strengthening the way billing is reviewed, tracked, and followed through.
• Supplier payments — Improving visibility over what needs to be paid and when.
• Month-end reporting — A clearer reporting process and better review routine.
• Finance controls — Reducing errors, duplication, and unclear ownership.
• Cash visibility — Understanding what is coming in, what is going out, and what needs attention. Includes a 13-week rolling cashflow forecast.
• Process structure — Moving finance away from messy, manual, reactive ways of working.

What you actually receive: a monthly finance pack

Each month, a clear summary of how the business is performing, where cash is heading, and what needs attention next: KPI summary with trend commentary, a 13-week cashflow forecast, variance against budget in plain English, and three clear next-step recommendations.

How working together looks

1. Week 1 — Discovery + finance review. A short, structured review of how finance currently runs. No prep, no homework.
2. Weeks 2–4 — Routine + controls in place. We help set the monthly cadence: clearer ownership, sharper controls, a reporting structure tuned to how you actually make decisions.
3. From month 2 — Retained advisory. A senior finance partner on retainer. Monthly pack, quarterly review, ad-hoc strategic calls. No long lock-in, no nine-month onboarding.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from a bookkeeper or accountant?

A bookkeeper records the numbers. An accountant files them. Senior Finance Support sits at the layer above — making sure numbers are reviewed, decisions are informed by them, and the finance function is structured to scale.

What size of business is this for?

Founder-led businesses doing roughly £1m to £25m in revenue, where finance has outgrown basic bookkeeping but a full-time Finance Director is too expensive or too soon.

What's the time commitment from me as a founder?

Roughly one focused session per month, plus occasional decision calls. The point is to take finance management off the founder, not add another standing meeting.

How is pricing structured?

Scope-based. Fixed monthly fee agreed during the initial review. No hourly billing, no lock-in beyond rolling month-to-month.
