Financial acumen is key to running and growing a successful small or medium sized business but most SME’s don’t require a full-time Financial Controller, that’s where I come in.
Abacus was born out of my own experiences with the difficulty of gaining access to specialised staff on an as needed basis. Working in-house I often came across situations where I needed a professional in a certain department on-and-off without enough work to need a full time employee, what I needed was a high-calibre professional on tap.
Based on this experience I decided to offer just that, a qualified Financial Controller with over 15 years of experience in running finance departments for SME’s available on a part-time or temporary basis.
