FAQ
What is an outsourced finance function?
Think of it as having your own finance team without employing one in-house.
As businesses grow, the financial side often becomes more time-consuming and complex. An outsourced finance function provides the support, systems and expertise needed to keep everything running smoothly, while allowing you to focus on running the business.
How do I know if we've outgrown managing the accounts ourselves?
Common signs include spending increasing amounts of time on bookkeeping, struggling to keep records up to date, relying on basic financial information to make decisions or feeling permanently behind on financial tasks.
An outsourced finance function can help bring greater structure, visibility and control to your finances.
We already use accounting software. Do we still need accounting support?
Yes. Accounting software is a powerful tool, but it still needs accurate information, ongoing maintenance and interpretation. We help ensure your systems are working effectively and provide the expertise needed to turn financial data into meaningful business insights.
What are the benefits of outsourcing finance function?
It improves reporting, strengthens financial processes, increases visibility over performance and allows business owners to focus more of their time on growth and operations.
How does PJCO help businesses become more efficient?
We start by understanding how your current processes work and identifying opportunities for improvement.
From cloud accounting systems and workflow improvements to reporting and financial support, we help create processes that save time, improve visibility and make day-to-day financial management easier.
Will we still be involved in the finances?
Absolutely.
Your outsourced finance function is there to support you, not replace your involvement. You’ll continue to have access to your financial information and reports, while benefiting from expert support and guidance whenever needed.
In fact, many clients find they have a much clearer understanding of their finances once robust systems and reporting are in place.
