Running a Limited company is exciting, but it also brings new challenges. As the numbers get bigger, so does the need for proper financial systems. That’s where an outsourced finance function comes in.
At striveX®, we call this our business services team, and it’s designed to take the weight of finance off your shoulders, without the cost of building a full in-house department.
What is an outsourced finance function?
Think of it as having your own finance department, without needing to hire one. We handle the day-to-day financial tasks that keep your business running smoothly, alongside the strategic reporting you need to make better decisions. That means:
- Bookkeeping & VAT returns – cloud-based, accurate and always up to date.
- Payroll – everything from payslips and pensions to CIS.
- Management accounts – monthly insight into your numbers, not just once a year.
- Board meetings & monthly reviews – a direct line to your accountant to help you make confident decisions.
- Cash flow & profit forecasting – to stay one step ahead.
- Credit control – ensuring you get paid on time.
All delivered by a UK-based team who know your business and are on the other end of the phone when you need them.
Why businesses outsource finance
Outsourcing your finance department isn’t about losing control, it’s about gaining clarity.
- You get a team of specialists for less than the cost of one full-time hire.
- Your business can scale without worrying about recruitment headaches.
- Processes are standardised, meaning you’re never caught out by staff absence or poor handovers.
- You get the peace of mind of knowing your compliance, payroll, and reporting are always accurate and on time.
For many of our clients, the biggest shift is moving from reactive “year-end” conversations with their accountant, to ongoing monthly support and proactive insight.
