YF Accounting Board-level finance · Without the board-level salary
Fractional CFO services for growing businesses
There’s a point where bookkeeping and year-end accounts stop being enough — when you need forecasts before decisions, numbers that explain themselves, and someone financially senior in the room. A fractional CFO gives you exactly that, for the days you need, at a fixed fee — not a £100k salary.

The essentials
Key facts
Fractional CFO — key facts for 2026/27
- What it is. Senior, qualified finance leadership (FCCA) on a part-time, fixed-fee basis — not a £100k+ full-time hire.
- Typical fit. Owner-managed businesses from roughly £250k–£5m turnover making growth, hiring or pricing decisions.
- Cadence. Monthly or quarterly management accounts, plus rolling cash-flow forecasts and board / investor packs.
- No tie-ins. Engage permanently at part-time depth, or for a fixed project — a raise, an acquisition, a turnaround.
- Built on compliance. Sits on top of bookkeeping, VAT, payroll and year-end — one joined-up team, not three suppliers.
What’s included
Senior finance, on demand
- Management accounts that mean something. Monthly or quarterly numbers with plain-English commentary — margin trends, cash position, what changed and why.
- Forecasting & budgets. Rolling cash-flow forecasts, annual budgets and scenario planning — so hiring, pricing and investment decisions are made with the numbers, not after them.
- Board & investor reporting. Clean packs for directors, lenders or investors — KPIs, variances and the story behind them, delivered on time every cycle.
- Pricing & margin work. Which customers, products and services actually make you money — and what to do about the ones that don’t.
- Funding & growth support. Lender conversations, raising preparation, due-diligence readiness and the financial model to back it all up.
- The compliance layer, included. It all sits on top of our core work — bookkeeping, VAT, payroll and year-end accounts — one joined-up team instead of three suppliers.
Who it’s for
Is this you?
- Businesses past the £250k–£1m turnover mark where gut feel stops scaling.
- Owners making hiring, pricing or premises decisions without a forecast.
- Companies reporting to investors, lenders or a board for the first time.
- Anyone whose accountant only shows up once a year, after the fact.

Questions
Fractional CFO — FAQs
What does a fractional CFO cost?+
A fraction of a full-time hire. Engagements are a tailored fixed monthly fee based on the cadence and depth you need — typically built on top of our Growing Business plans (from £200/month). You’ll get an exact written quote on a free call.
How is this different from just getting management accounts?+
Management accounts tell you what happened. A fractional CFO adds the forward view — forecasts, scenarios and recommendations — and sits in the meetings where decisions get made.
Do we need to be a certain size?+
There’s no fixed threshold, but the value usually kicks in once you have staff, meaningful stock or projects, or outside money — roughly the £250k+ turnover mark. Below that, our bookkeeping and management accounts service is usually the right fit.
Can you work alongside our existing bookkeeper?+
Yes. We can sit on top of your in-house bookkeeping or take the whole finance function — whichever produces cleaner numbers with less duplication.
Is this a long-term commitment?+
No tie-ins. Some clients want a CFO permanently at part-time depth; others need six months around a raise, an acquisition or a growth push. Both work.
