Host:
Welcome back to Business Insight Labs — the podcast that brings you practical strategies and expert thinking to grow smarter, faster, and with more confidence. Today, we’re focusing on a topic more UK leaders are asking about in 2026: Fractional CFOs — what they are, how they help, and why they could be the strategic advantage your business has been missing. 

🔹 What is a Fractional CFO?

Let’s start with the basics. A fractional CFO — sometimes called a part-time CFO — delivers senior financial leadership without the cost and commitment of a full-time hire. Think of it as board-level financial strategy on a flexible schedule that suits your business needs, whether that’s a few days a month or several days a week.

These professionals bring deep expertise in financial planning, forecasting, cashflow strategy, risk management, investor relations and more — all vital areas that drive growth and resilience. Regardless of whether you’re a fast-scaling startup or a well-established SME, they plug into your leadership team and help you make more informed, impactful decisions.

💡 Why Consider a Fractional CFO?

For many businesses, especially small and mid-sized ones, hiring a full-time CFO isn’t financially feasible — or even necessary. This is where a fractional CFO shines:

🎯 Cost Efficiency: You gain high-level expertise without the salary and benefits package attached to a permanent executive role.
📈 Strategic Boost: Whether it’s preparing for a fundraising round, tightening up financial controls, or professionalising reporting, a fractional CFO provides clarity and direction.
🔄 Flexible Engagement: You choose the scope — from project work to ongoing part-time leadership — so the support adapts as your business evolves.

In today’s dynamic economic landscape, this kind of flexible access to senior financial leadership isn’t just nice to have — it can be a competitive edge.

🤝 How FD Capital Helps You Hire the Right Talent

That’s where FD Capital comes in. They specialise in Fractional CFO recruitment, connecting UK businesses with seasoned financial chiefs who have operated at board level and across sectors including tech, SaaS, manufacturing, professional services and more.

Rather than sending you a random consultant, FD Capital taps into a network of vetted CFOs — professionals with proven track records and the right strategic mindset for your specific needs. The process is streamlined and tailored: from an initial discovery call, to matching with the right candidates, to onboarding the perfect fit for your organisation.

Some key benefits of choosing FD Capital’s approach include:

✨ Rapid Matchmaking: Because they focus exclusively on senior finance recruitment, suitable candidates can be presented swiftly — often within days, not months.
📊 Flexible Models: Whether you want someone one day a week or several days a month, your engagement is designed to fit your business rhythm.
🏆 Board-Level Insight: Every fractional CFO has experience operating at a high level, bringing strategic insight and credibility to your leadership team.

📌 Final Thoughts

Hiring a fractional CFO can feel like unlocking a new level of strategic capability — giving you the insights, discipline, and expertise previously reserved for large organisations. If you’re at a stage where financial clarity equals growth potential, it’s a move worth exploring.

Welcome back to the show, where we explore the realities behind leadership, finance, and business growth. Today’s question sounds simple on the surface:

What is the cost of a UK CFO?

But as with most things in business, the real answer goes far beyond a single salary number. Because the true cost of a CFO isn’t just what you pay them. It’s what they deliver, what they enable, and what they potentially save—or cost—you.

Let’s start with the headline figure.

In the UK, a full-time Chief Financial Officer typically earns between £120,000 and £250,000 per year. In larger organisations or London-based firms, that can rise to £300,000 or more. Add bonuses, pension contributions, National Insurance, healthcare, equity, and other benefits, and the total employment cost can easily exceed £180,000 to £350,000 annually.

And that’s before you factor in recruitment fees, which often run at 20–30% of first-year salary. So a £200,000 CFO could come with a £40,000 to £60,000 recruiter bill before they’ve even started.

So, on paper, a CFO is one of the most expensive hires a growing business will ever make.

But here’s where things get interesting.

Because cost without context is meaningless.

A great CFO does far more than oversee accounting. They shape strategy. They manage risk. They guide cash flow. They help raise capital. They challenge assumptions. They turn numbers into decisions.

In other words, a strong CFO should create value far beyond their salary.

Let’s talk about what that value can look like.

A CFO who improves cash flow management might prevent a funding crisis. One who structures financing effectively could save hundreds of thousands in interest. 

However—and this is critical—not every business actually needs a full-time CFO.

Many UK companies hire too early.

If your business is turning over £2m to £10m, you may not need a 5-day-a-week CFO. What you usually need is:

• Accurate financial reporting
 • Strong cash flow forecasting
 • Budgeting and scenario planning
 • Strategic guidance when making big decisions

You don’t necessarily need someone in the building every day to achieve that.

This is where fractional CFOs or part-time CFO services come in.

A fractional CFO typically costs between £1,500 and £6,000 per month depending on experience and days required. Annually, that’s roughly £18,000 to £72,000.

Compare that to £200,000+ for a full-time hire.

For many growing businesses, fractional CFOs provide 70–80% of the strategic value at 20–30% of the cost.

That difference can be transformational.

There’s also another hidden cost to consider: the cost of getting it wrong.

Hiring the wrong CFO is expensive. Severance packages, recruitment fees, cultural damage, lost momentum, and strategic missteps all compound quickly.

A cheaper CFO who lacks experience in your growth stage can cost more than an expensive one who knows exactly what they’re doing.

If a founder is spending 30% of their time worrying about cash, producing spreadsheets, and second-guessing numbers, that’s time not spent on sales, product, or growth.

A CFO who frees the founder to focus on building the business often pays for themselves.

So what’s the real cost of a UK CFO?

The financial cost might range from £20,000 a year for fractional support to £350,000+ for a top-tier full-time executive.

But the real cost is strategic.

Welcome back to Business Unlocked, the show that brings expert insights straight to founders, CEOs, finance leaders and anyone who wants a smarter way to grow their organisation. I’m your host, and today we’re diving into a resource every business leader should know about — the FD Capital Knowledge Centre.

🎯 What is the FD Capital Knowledge Centre?

The FD Capital Knowledge Centre isn’t another dry finance blog. It’s a practical, plain-English financial hub created by FD Capital, a boutique recruitment agency specialising in senior finance talent — like CFOs and FDs — across the UK.

📊 Cutting Through the Jargon

Finance can sometimes feel like it’s written in another language. Terms like cash-flow runway, EBITDA or fractional CFO can sound intimidating — especially if your background isn’t in accounting.

That’s where the Knowledge Centre shines. It breaks down core concepts like:

✔️ What’s the difference between profit and cash flow
 ✔️ What EBITDA really means and why investors care
 ✔️ The roles and responsibilities of finance leaders (from controllers to CFOs)
 ✔️ How to interpret financial reports for strategic decision-making

All explained clearly and practically so you can use the information — not just read it.

🤝 Understanding Finance Roles & When You Need Them

One of the most common mistakes fast-growing companies make is hiring the wrong finance leader at the wrong time.

The Knowledge Centre helps you:

🔹 Understand the difference between finance roles
 🔹 Decide what kind of finance leadership your stage of business really needs
 🔹 Avoid common hiring pitfalls

This is huge. Finance leadership isn’t just about numbers — it’s about strategically interpreting those numbers to drive real growth.

🧠 Flexible Finance Solutions for Real Situations

Not every business is ready for a full-time CFO. Some need short-term support during change, others want part-time strategic insight without the full cost of a permanent hire.

So the Knowledge Centre clearly explains options like:

🔸 Interim finance leaders for transitional periods
 🔸 Fractional CFOs or FDs that work part-time across multiple clients
 🔸 Outsourced finance solutions when you need operational support

These flexible models can transform how a business thinks about finance — and how it uses finance to unlock growth.

📈 Real Growth, Real Insight

The Knowledge Centre also steps into finance for growth, investment, and organisational change. Preparing for investment? Thinking about an exit? Wanting better forecasting or planning?

You’ll find guidance on:

📌 Preparing financial information for investors
 📌 Managing cash flow during business transitions
 📌 Building systems and controls that don’t just record history — they predict your future

This is practical knowledge — not theory. It’s designed to help you make real #decisions day-to-day.

🚀 Why It Matters to You

Whether you’re a founder bootstrapping your business, a CEO scaling toward Series A, or a finance professional shaping your career — the FD Capital Knowledge Centre gives you clarity where there was confusion.

And the best part? It’s all free, easy to navigate, and growing with new content regularly.

Welcome to The Growth & Finance Podcast, where we explore how smart financial leadership drives business success. I’m Adrian Lawrence, and today we’re tackling a question every growing company faces: When’s the right time to hire a Finance Director or CFO?

We’ll explore what these roles actually do, when you should bring one in, and how FD Capital helps you find the perfect fit — full-time, part-time, or fractional.

Segment 1: Why financial leadership matters
When businesses start out, founders often juggle everything — from operations to finances. But as growth accelerates, financial complexity increases: cashflow gets tighter, forecasts become essential, investors ask tougher questions, and strategic clarity is harder to maintain.

That’s where senior financial leadership makes the difference. A skilled Finance Director or CFO doesn’t just manage numbers — they help you plan, predict, and grow with confidence. They translate financial data into actionable insight and help you make smarter decisions about investment, expansion, and risk.

If you’ve hit a growth ceiling, have unpredictable cashflow, or need to prepare for funding or acquisition, it might be time to bring in an FD or CFO.

Segment 2: FD vs CFO — what’s the difference?
An FD (Finance Director) is hands-on: improving reporting, managing cashflow, setting up systems, and turning figures into clear business intelligence.
A CFO (Chief Financial Officer) takes a broader view: shaping financial strategy, raising capital, managing investors, and steering long-term growth.

Both are strategic partners who free up the CEO to focus on vision while ensuring the business runs on solid financial ground.

Segment 3: Timing and flexibility
Here’s the good news — hiring a top-level finance professional doesn’t have to mean a full-time salary. FD Capital specialises in flexible solutions: fractional, part-time, or interim FDs and CFOs. That means you can access senior expertise exactly when and how you need it.

For many growing SMEs, this approach is ideal. You get high-calibre financial insight without the full overhead. And as you scale, that role can grow with you.

Common signs it’s time to act:

• You’ve outgrown what your accountant can provide.
• Your forecasts are outdated or non-existent.
• You’re preparing for investment, sale, or expansion.
• You need greater financial control and visibility.

If any of these sound familiar, you’re not alone — and you’re at the perfect stage to benefit from FD Capital’s expertise.

Segment 4: Why FD Capital?
FD Capital focuses exclusively on FD and CFO recruitment across the UK. Their team includes former finance leaders who truly understand the role’s impact.

They don’t just fill vacancies — they match skills, personality, and sector experience to your business culture and stage of growth. Whether you need remote, hybrid, or on-site support, FD Capital tailors each hire.

Their clients span industries from tech and e-commerce to manufacturing and private equity, all united by one goal: stronger, smarter financial leadership.

Working with specialists like FD Capital means you’re not just hiring a finance professional — you’re gaining a trusted strategic partner to help drive performance, profitability, and value creation.

Host: Welcome to Finance Leadership Unlocked, the podcast where we explore how businesses can build smarter, scalable, agile finance teams without overcommitting. I’m your host, Adrian Lawrence, and today we’re diving into a topic that more and more companies are embracing — hiring fixed-term, interim, or fractional FDs and CFOs. We’ll talk through when this makes sense, how to make it work, and why FD Capital is uniquely positioned to help you get it done right.

1. The Problem: Full-Time CFOs Aren’t Always the Best Fit (4 minutes)

• Many businesses assume that growth or complexity immediately requires a full-time CFO or Finance Director — but that isn’t always true.
• A full-time hire brings high salary, benefits, recruitment risk, and may not be fully loaded with work from day one.
• In transitional periods — fundraising, acquisition, restructuring, turnaround, project work — you may need strategic financial leadership, but only for a defined term.
• Additionally, smaller or scaling firms may want top-tier financial expertise but can’t yet justify a full-time C-suite budget.

So the question is: how can you get top financial leadership for exactly as long as you need it — without overcommitment?

2. The Solution: Fixed-Term / Interim / Fractional FDs & CFOs (5 minutes)

• Fixed-term / interim / fractional executives offer a bridge: you get senior leadership for a defined period, or part-time, tailored to your business demands.
• They can step into gaps (e.g. a CFO leaves, you’re pursuing a capital raise, or leading an M&A), or operate as long-term but part-time partners.
• These roles come with the right balance of cost efficiency, flexibility, and high impact.
• Because the deliverables are clearly scoped, accountability is higher, and ROI tends to be more measurable.

From FD Capital’s perspective, these are not niche roles — they are core to how we match leadership to need. FD Capital recruits for full-time, part-time, portfolio, and interim CFO/FD roles. 

3. Use Cases & Success Stories (4 minutes)

Let’s walk through a few situations where fixed-term FDs / CFOs add value:

• Fundraising & Equity / Debt Structuring
  Suppose your business is preparing a funding round. You need someone who knows how to articulate your story financially, model scenarios, manage investor due diligence — but that work is intense for a few months rather than ongoing. A fixed-term CFO from a pool with private equity experience (which FD Capital often works with) becomes ideal.
  
  
• During Transitions or Leadership Gaps
  Your CFO resigns, or your Finance Director is off long-term. Having an interim or fixed-term replacement ensures continuity — without rushing a permanent hire.
• Transformation Projects
  Mergers, acquisitions, systems implementation, restructuring, cost optimization — all of these often need strategic financial leadership for a period. A contract FP&A overhaul, for example, can be led by a capable FD or CFO for 6–12 months.
• Scaling SMEs / Startups
  Many smaller businesses can’t afford a full-time CFO, but as they scale, they need guidance on governance, forecasting, KPI frameworks, and risk.

Welcome to Boardroom Resilience, the podcast where we unpack leadership roles that guide organizations through their toughest moments. I’m your host, Adrian Lawrence. Today, we’re diving into a specialized boardroom role—the Crisis Management Non-Executive Director—and how they help steer firms through turbulent waters.

Host:
A Crisis Management NED is a Non-Executive Director brought onboard specifically to help organizations manage, respond to, and recover from crises. They’re not temporary staff, but rather independent, experienced voices guiding strategic response, governance, and communication when it matters most. Their role spans from early recognition of threats through to stabilization and resilience-building 

Host:
During a crisis, a Crisis Management NED steps into multiple critical functions:

• Independent Oversight & Governance
  They ensure there’s a robust crisis framework in place, reviewing and advising on policies, governance lines, and accountability before, during, and after the crisis
  
  
• Strategic Guidance
  They help the executive team calibrate urgent decisions with long-term objectives—avoiding reactive pitfalls and aligning actions with organizational purpose
  
  
• Stakeholder Communication
  These NEDs help shape and oversee communication to shareholders, employees, customers, media, and regulators—ensuring clarity and trust throughout the crisis
  
  
• Skills Required
  They must excel in risk assessment, quick decision-making under pressure, emotional intelligence, and persuasive communication
  
  
• Preparation & Resilience Building
  A top-tier Crisis NED helps build resilience through planning, training exercises, simulations, and championing continuous improvement post-crisis 

Host:
So, why does this role matter so much?

First, crises are increasingly common—whether financial shocks, cyber breaches, or reputational hits. NEDs with a crisis focus bring perspective, calm, and structure just when organizations may be overwhelmed.

Financial institutions are especially vulnerable. Events like the collapses of Silicon Valley Bank and Credit Suisse highlighted how fragile risk frameworks can be—and how boards with NED oversight can help prevent—or at least mitigate—such failures 

Moreover, effective crisis management isn't just reactive—it can protect shareholder value. Studies show that companies that manage crises well can rebound with better-than-expected outcomes, while others suffer lasting value damage 

Lastly, a Crisis Management NED helps ensure that decisions remain aligned with ethics, compliance, and long-term vision—not just short-term survival 

Visit our sister website at https://www.nedcapital.co.uk/crisis-management-non-executive-director/

Host:
What makes an organization ready for Crisis NED engagement?

• Crisis Preparedness Plans: With NED input, firms should have clear crisis protocols, roles, and response scenarios in place.
• Simulations and Training: Regular “war games” or dry runs test preparedness—and build board and executive muscle memory
  
  
• Continuous Learning Culture: Post-crisis reviews—and updates to policy—ensure the organization improves rather than repeats mistakes
  
  
• Guarding Governance: The Crisis NED ensures decisions, even under pressure, are measured, accountable, and well-governed—especially when scrutiny is high 

Host:
In a world where volatility is the norm, a Crisis Management Non-Executive Director is more than a boardroom role—they’re a safeguard, a strategist, and a steward of stakeholder trust.

Hello and welcome to Boardroom Breakthroughs—the podcast where we explore how leadership, strategy, and expertise drive growth in today’s competitive business world. I’m your host, Adrian Lawrence, and in this episode, we’re diving into a topic that can change the trajectory of your business—Non-Executive Directors, or NEDs.

You might be thinking, “Do I really need a NED?” If you’re a founder, a CEO, or part of a growing leadership team—yes, you just might.

And today, we’re going to explore why bringing in a NED through FD Capital could be the smartest move you make this year.

[Transition Sound]

Let’s start with the basics.

A Non-Executive Director is not involved in your business day-to-day—but that’s exactly why they’re so powerful. NEDs bring independent thinking, fresh perspectives, and decades of high-level experience that can challenge your assumptions, steer your strategy, and help you avoid blind spots.

They’re there to ask the tough questions, hold management accountable, and make sure your business is growing in a smart, sustainable way.

Now, here’s where FD Capital comes in.

FD Capital is a UK-based executive recruitment boutique that specialises in finance and board-level talent. They understand that the right NED isn’t just about experience—it’s about fit, chemistry, and timing.

They match companies with experienced, commercially-minded NEDs who can add immediate value—whether you’re preparing for investment, navigating a turnaround, scaling operations, or simply trying to level up your boardroom.

[Client Scenario Segment]

Let’s paint a picture.

Imagine you're a founder-led tech company. Things are moving fast—you’ve got product-market fit, revenue is growing, but you’re entering uncharted territory. Suddenly, you need to think like a “real” board. You need guidance on governance, exits, risk, strategy.

FD Capital can connect you with a seasoned NED who’s done this before—maybe they’ve IPO’d, raised VC rounds, or steered a company through an acquisition. They’ve sat in your seat—and they know what’s coming next.

[Expertise Highlight]

FD Capital’s network of NEDs is seriously impressive. We’re talking people with backgrounds in finance, private equity, digital transformation, ESG, M&A, and more.

And because they also specialise in fractional and part-time finance roles, they really understand the needs of lean, agile businesses—not just giant corporations.

They also help you understand what kind of NED you really need—strategic vs. governance-focused, industry-specific vs. generalist, hands-on vs. high-level oversight.

[Mini Testimonial or Quote Suggestion]

Here’s a quote from one of their clients:

That’s the kind of impact you want.

That’s it for this episode of Boardroom Breakthroughs. Don’t forget to subscribe and share this with someone who needs to hear it. And remember—great businesses aren’t built alone.

Until next time, stay smart, stay strategic.

Hey there, and welcome back to FD Capital— where we talk strategy, leadership, and the future of business. I’m your host, and today we’re diving into a topic that doesn't always make the headlines — but might just be one of the most important decisions you’ll ever make for your business.

I’m talking about non-executive directors, or NEDs — and more importantly, how to find the right ones.

So if you're a founder, CEO, investor, or even part of a growing startup looking to take things to the next level… this one’s for you.

Let me introduce you to NED Capital — a specialist recruitment firm helping businesses across the UK and beyond build stronger boards, smarter companies, and better outcomes.

[Quick transition sting]

Host:
So here’s the deal — we all know a good CEO can steer the ship, but a great board? That’s your navigation system. And non-executive directors play a key role in that. They bring independence, experience, and often a healthy dose of challenge that keeps your business focused and future-ready.

But not all NEDs are created equal — and that’s where NED Capital comes in.

They’re not just a recruiter. NED Capital is a strategic partner for organisations looking to bring in high-quality, high-impact non-executives — whether that’s for governance, growth, digital transformation, or even preparing for an exit or IPO.

[Slight pause]

What I love about NED Capital is their tailored approach. They don’t believe in one-size-fits-all. Whether you’re a scale-up, a family business, a PE-backed portfolio company, or a PLC — they understand that the boardroom needs nuance.

They take the time to understand the DNA of your business, your current leadership team, and your future ambitions — then match you with candidates who bring exactly what you need: experience, insight, networks, and yes… sometimes, a bit of healthy boardroom friction.

[Music or ambient transition]

Host:
Think about it — are you trying to scale rapidly but lack digital experience at board level? Are you preparing to raise funding and need a heavyweight finance profile to build investor confidence? Or maybe you're trying to future-proof your board with greater diversity of thought and background?

NED Capital has helped companies across industries — tech, healthcare, consumer goods, fintech, and more — find directors who’ve “been there, done that” and are ready to do it again.

And here's the thing: these aren’t passive, ceremonial appointments. NED Capital focuses on value-adding NEDs who roll up their sleeves and make a real impact — challenging assumptions, unlocking connections, and guiding leadership when it matters most.

[Short pause]

Now, if you’re listening and thinking “Okay, how do I even start this process?” — the answer is simple: head over to nedcapital.co.uk.

Their site is clean, informative, and built for busy professionals. You can explore their services, see client case studies, and even connect for a confidential conversation about what your board needs now — and in the future.

[Outro music starts to fade in]

Host:
So whether you're building your first board or evolving a seasoned one, the right non-executive director could be the catalyst for your next phase of growth. And with NED Capital in your corner, you don’t just get recruitment — you get strategy, insight, and access to a seriously impressive network.

That’s it for today’s episode — short, sharp, and all about building better boards.

Until next time, keep leading, keep growing, and as always — stay curious.

Hey everyone, welcome back to The Smarter Scale Show—your go-to podcast for navigating the toughest parts of business growth. I’m your host, Adrian Lawrence, and today we’re talking about a hire that can transform your company’s trajectory.

We’re diving into the Financial Controller role—why it matters, when to hire one, and how to make sure you find the right person. And spoiler alert: this isn’t a DIY job. That’s why we’re highlighting a specialist partner in this space—Accountancy Capital, who are doing brilliant work in Financial Controller recruitment.

Let’s get into it.

📊 Segment 1: More Than Numbers – The Strategic Role of a Financial Controller

Host:
Most people think of finance as a cost centre, but in truth, it's a strategic engine—if you have the right people in place.

The Financial Controller is at the heart of that engine. They bring discipline to your numbers, yes—but more than that, they bring structure, strategy, and insight.

Think cash flow management, financial forecasting, margin analysis, and building out the internal processes that keep everything running smoothly. This person helps leadership make data-driven decisions, not guesses.

Without a strong Financial Controller, you risk building your business on shaky foundations. With one? You build confidence, clarity, and the ability to scale without chaos.

🧩 Segment 2: Why Hiring One Isn’t Straightforward

Host:
Here’s the tricky part—finding the right Financial Controller is not easy.

You need someone who’s technically excellent, but also a cultural fit. Someone who can handle the day-to-day but also think big picture. That blend of precision and commercial instinct? It’s rare.

This is where Accountancy Capital shines.

🎯 Segment 3: How Accountancy Capital Simplifies the Process

Host:
Accountancy Capital focuses solely on recruiting finance professionals—and they’re particularly strong when it comes to Financial Controllers.

Here’s what sets them apart:

1. Specialisation – They know what a good FC looks like, because finance is all they do.
2. Strategic Guidance – They help you define the role, understand market expectations, and even benchmark salaries.
3. Pre-vetted Talent – They don’t just send CVs—they introduce candidates who are ready to hit the ground running and add value from day one.

Whether you’re hiring your first in-house finance lead or upgrading your current team, they’ll help you find someone with the right skills and mindset to grow with your business.

📈 Segment 4: The Signs It’s Time to Hire

Host:
So, how do you know it’s time to hire a Financial Controller? Here are some clear signals:

• You’ve got revenue, but you don’t have robust financial systems.
• Your board or investors are asking for more accurate reporting.
• You’re scaling quickly and want to avoid operational blind spots.
• You want to move from outsourced to in-house finance—or need someone to manage the external teams more effectively.

If any of that rings true, it’s time to speak with someone who knows this space.

📢 Segment 5: Wrap-Up + Call to Action

Host:
If there’s one thing we know, it’s this: great businesses are built on great decisions—and great decisions require great financial visibility.
