Outsourced Finance & Virtual FD

Your own outsourced finance department and Virtual Finance Director — senior financial expertise, without the cost of an in-house team.

As your business grows, so does the need for proper financial leadership — but a full-time finance team isn't always practical. Our outsourced finance department gives you a dedicated finance function you can rely on: accurate day-to-day numbers, clear monthly reporting and a Virtual Finance Director (Virtual FD) on hand to help you make confident decisions. Whether you need a fractional Finance Director for a few days a month or complete finance function outsourcing, we scale our support around you. It's senior, strategic financial expertise for ambitious businesses across Tamworth, Lichfield, Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, Solihull and Burton upon Trent — and beyond, thanks to cloud accounting.

Frequently Asked Questions

A Virtual FD gives you the strategic insight of a Finance Director on a flexible, part-time basis — helping you plan, budget and grow without the cost of a full-time appointment.

We don't believe in one-size-fits-all pricing. Your fee depends on the support you actually need — the size of your business, how many transactions you have and the services you'd like. We'll always give you a clear, fixed quote up front with no hidden extras, so you know exactly where you stand before committing to anything.

Since starting our new business in 2026, Cloud Accounting Support Services has been fantastic. They have made everything so much easier to manage, and their support has always been there whenever we’ve needed help. We couldn’t have asked for a better accounting partner.

Paul, Ali and the team are simply amazing. Every time I ask for help, someone comes back to me straight away, and I always feel supported. They take the stress out of accounts, explain things in a way I understand, and genuinely care about helping me get it right. Having an accountant like Paul gives me complete peace of mind, and that’s priceless when you’re running a business and wearing lots of hats.
