Your numbers, ready when the decision is.
The finance function only larger companies usually get, made for owner managed businesses turning over £500k to £5m. Data that keeps up with the decisions you make every day, a forward view of your cash, a year end and statutory work done in house, and a qualified accountant alongside the MD when nobody else can see the whole picture.

The decision is now. The data is not.
Month end takes weeks, not days.
By the time you see the numbers they are already out of date. You are making this month's calls on last quarter's data.
Cash flow is a glance at the bank balance.
No rolling forecast. No view of the next 30, 60 or 90 days. Big bills land as surprises, not as plans.
Two providers, both looking backwards.
Your bookkeeper records transactions. Your year end accountant files returns. Nobody tells you what is happening now, or what to do about it.
You are the finance department.
You built the business. You should not also be the FD, the chaser, the credit controller and the analyst.

One firm. Three layers. A fully enabling finance partner across every aspect.
What you have to, what you should, and what you would like. Pick what you need, leave the rest with your existing accountant if you prefer. The point is that we can cover every aspect of the finance function when you want us to, and we can pick up only the parts you are missing when that is the right answer too.
Anything filed with a regulator, signed by a qualified firm.
Year end accounts and CT600, payroll filings (RTI), auto enrolment pension filings, quarterly VAT, personal tax returns for directors, confirmation statement, statutory registers, fee protection. Non negotiable, prepared and signed by George Isaacs at Isaacs & Co.
Operational hygiene that keeps the numbers true.
Integrated bookkeeping, supplier payment runs, receipt and invoice capture, payroll, bank files for staff salaries and expenses, dividend voucher paperwork. Data in, payments out, records straight.
Turning the numbers into decisions.
Monthly management accounts and KPI deck. Annual budget. Rolling 12 month forecast across P&L, cashflow and balance sheet. Business partnering with monthly review, proactive prompts ("you should look at this") and ad hoc director Q&A. The layer where you should be getting most of the value.
Happy to work alongside your existing accountant on this layer alone. You do not have to move your year end or your bookkeeping to engage us here.
And underneath all three layers: data ready when the decision is. Not when the file lands next Tuesday.
You do not have to take all three layers from us. Many clients keep their existing accountant on Statutory and Control and engage us on Enablement alone. Both work.

The pack that lands on your desk, every month.
"How is a full finance function affordable for an SME?"
A full time finance director plus a small team usually starts north of £150k a year. That is why most owner managed businesses do not have one, and most are quietly running blind because of it. We use modern tools and AI to take the mechanical work off the desk, so three qualified accountants can give your business proper attention at a fraction of that cost. The technology earns its place by making the work affordable. The accountant signs every output. You get the function you should have had, at a price that fits.
Ranges reflect the scope of the engagement, sized to the business. Subject to a signed engagement letter at Isaacs & Co and AI Finance Partners.
Tell us about your business. We will tell you honestly whether and how we can help.
Thirty minutes, no preparation needed, no obligation. A straight conversation about your numbers and what good would look like. Andrew picks up the phone.
