Finance Director & Board Support

Through effective financial leadership, we’ll ensure your operations run smoothly, while mitigating risk and aligning your objectives with your business outcomes.

We have a breadth of skills across our financial management portfolio. Our personnel come from a variety of sector backgrounds and have a range of professional qualifications that make Vercity a leading consultancy in finance directorship and board support.

A broad range of expertise

Vercity employs talented senior finance experts, with all the prerequisite skills of the modern-day Finance Director. Our accounting team includes professionally qualified accountants from each of the three main UK professional designations and, in addition, the Chartered Institute of Taxation.

Our accountants have gained many years of post-qualified experience at a senior level from within practice and across the private and the public sectors. Their experience includes operating at Finance Director level and providing specialist support to SPVs, SMEs, venture capital-backed companies, private equity-backed businesses and financial institutions.

We also have several expert groups that can guide your projects, including a professional development group that supports those studying for professional exams. We are accredited under the three main professional institutes to provide training.

Managing stakeholder relationships

Key to running a successful project is developing and maintaining positive relationships with stakeholders. At Vercity, we realise that managing third parties can be challenging, that’s why our team takes the time to understand what drives the various parties involved in your projects and businesses.

Our Finance Directors are experienced in managing teams, both in-house and externally. They have access to a range of specialist expert services across our portfolio, including, tax management, financial modelling, strategic financial management and capital management.

With access to these resources, we can influence stakeholder decisions while managing expectations and conflicting priorities.

Investing in resources to support delivery

In providing comprehensive, yet flexible support, our services can be specifically tailored to meet your needs. We deliver a programme of technical and commercial finance, tax and IT updates, ensuring the continuous successful delivery of your projects.

Through our investment in cloud-based IT infrastructure and governance processes, you’ll benefit from the highest standards of project control and compliance.

We’ve invested in systems and procedures that will help protect your assets, provide you with opportunities to gain a competitive advantage, and drive your decision-making at all levels.

Strategic Financial Management

We can support your business in implementing strategic decisions, or in identifying areas for improvement that will add value to your business and help you manage change.

Understanding your business dynamics is key to providing you with the right support. We’ll ensure that we undertake appropriate reviews and evaluate the impact of change and report recommendations to the board.

We’ll support the boards in their understanding of the impacts of strategic decisions and support them to enhance value and mitigate unwanted impacts.
