Fractional CFO
Gain strategic financial direction, board-level reporting, and cash management expertise without committing to a full-time CFO. We join your leadership calls, guide strategy, and own investor relations.
Fractional CFO Support for London Businesses
London is home to one of the world's most competitive markets for finance talent, but hiring a full-time Chief Finance Officer rarely makes sense for an SME.
Ruddham's fractional CFO service gives London and UK businesses direct access to Big 4 accounting firms and FTSE trained finance leaders for two to eight days a month, without a full time CFO cost.
Whether you're based on Great Portland Street or scaling from Manchester to Leeds, our fractional CFOs step straight into board meetings, own investor relations, and bring the same rigor a FTSE 100 finance director would apply, just sized correctly for a growing SME.
