Our Key Skill Sets

We focus on three main skill sets: PEOPLE, PROCESS & FINANCE

People

We focus our work here on staffing and structure, analysis of key resources and training needs and requirements, coaching and mentoring boards and senior staff, matching skills and capabilities to organisation need, good governance structures/practice and partner/stakeholder/director management

Process

Our services include organisation reviews covering directors and middle management structures, business strategy and plans development, process analysis, organisational performance, benchmarking against key industry competitors, marketing & branding / social accounting and often interim management.

Finance

We offer a full review of existing financial management. Do your financial reports provide an accurate and timely picture of the financial performance of the business? Do they help management address key issues and does the cashflow forecasting allow the business to manage its financial commitments professionally?

Our Experience

We work with businesses across all sectors. Most recently, we have supported a Construction-based business, a company Selling Software into Government & a growing firm of Solicitors, across the Northwest of England.

Our Approach

Our services are based on your requirements and include business reviews, business strategy and plans development, process analysis, organisation review, coaching and mentoring, income generation and interim management.

Why Us

We only use consultants with relevant and extensive experience in your sector. We ensure that your requirements are translated – simply – into a package of support that will enhance your business and – we do it “with” you, not “to” you.
