FD Services

FD Services: Part-time FDs and Interim FDs for entrepreneurial businesses

‘Successful people surround themselves with successful people’.

Whether you need an operational FD or a start-up specialist, an agent of change or a driver of growth, a fundraiser or exit specialist, has the right FD for your business.

Uniquely our part-time FDs and interim FDs have the ability to call on a full resourced Isosceles finance team to back them up.

For start-ups:

Solid foundations.

Your time and resources are precious. Your focus should be on product and client development. We offer flexible, effective access to FD skills at a fraction of the cost of a full-time resource. Our startup FDs will share your workload and support you to create the solid foundations needed for success.

For growth:

With growth comes change

As your business matures the role of the FD changes. The skills required to drive growth are different from the more operational skills required of a start-up. We provide access to experts working with some of the UK's most successful technology companies.

For exits:

Creating a winning formula

Not only is an FD with transaction experience critical to a successful exit, but their presence can be the driver that gets the deal completed successfully. Our FDs help entrepreneurs achieve a successful exit at premium values. We understand what makes a winning formula and will create a compelling proposition.

Part-time FD

Isosceles provides high calibre part-time FDs at a fraction of the cost of a full-time resource.  This means you get access to FD-level expertise when you need it – paying for only what you use.

Our FDs are flexible and have experience of all stages of development from start-up, fundraising, through growth as well as exit and can support you on whatever basis best suits your business and your senior management team.

We specialise in supporting ambitious, rapid growth companies.  All our part-time FDs are accustomed to adapting to diverse cultures, working styles and ownership models, which means they will add value from their first day.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

I trust Isosceles with one of the most fundamental parts of my business. I have complete confidence in all their staff; they have never let me down.

CEO, IT services provider

Ancoris wanted a partner that had extensive experience in dealing with these type of transactions and a negotiation style which was win/win. Isosceles was able to manage the expectation of the seller so that a realistic valuation could be agreed to both parties’ satisfaction. Isosceles helped keep the transaction simple and straightforward, they are very easy to work with.

David McCleman CEO

We needed a flexible individual with a high level of commercial acumen who could confidently fill the role of Finance Director.

CEO, software development company

Isosceles made my life easier from start to finish. They focussed on my business, looking after day to day accounting requirements and acted as trusted advisors, providing a valuable sounding board when I needed it, but often the service was light touch and excellent value.

Robert Dent, CEO, 1st Touch
