Finance for non-financial managers

Reading the numbers, defending a budget and understanding what a manager's decisions do to the accounts.

A finance room with the budget wall, the ledgers and the monthly pack open on the table

What we list, and what we do not

Reading management accounts and a board pack, budgeting and forecasting, cost and margin literacy, cash against profit, capital requests, and financial literacy for directors who must interrogate what finance puts in front of them.

Not accounting qualification training and not tax advice. This discipline exists to make non-financial people competent readers of financial information, not to make them accountants.

What companies ask for

Reading a management pack

Building and defending a budget

Cash, profit and why they differ

Three situations this gets bought for

  1. The manager with a budget they did not build
    Accountable for a number they had no hand in setting and cannot explain when it moves. The commonest version of this booking, usually run for a whole management layer at once.
  2. The board that cannot interrogate the pack
    Directors nodding through financials they do not fully follow, which is a governance exposure as much as a skills gap. Often bought quietly, alongside the governance discipline.
  3. The profitable company with no cash
    The statements look fine and the bank account does not. Working capital literacy, and it is worth putting the operational managers in the room rather than only finance.
