Virtual FD / part-time FD

Virtual Finance Director services in Kent

Board-level financial insight without a full-time salary — forecasting, management accounts and strategy, on tap when your business needs it.

★★★★★ Rated 5.0 on Google

Growing businesses reach a point where they need proper financial leadership — but a full-time Finance Director can cost £80,000 or more a year. A virtual (or part-time) FD gives you that same board-level expertise, flexibly and affordably. At BDH Accounting we provide virtual FD services to ambitious businesses across Kent and the South East.

We go beyond compliance — helping you understand your numbers, plan ahead, and make confident decisions as you scale.

Questions

Virtual FD FAQs

What is a virtual Finance Director?

A virtual FD is an experienced finance professional who works with you part-time — giving you the strategic financial leadership of an FD without the cost of a full-time hire.

How is it different from an accountant?

Your accountant keeps you compliant and files your returns. A virtual FD looks forward — forecasting, planning and helping you make better decisions to grow. We do both.

How much does a virtual FD cost?

Far less than a full-time FD — you pay only for the time you need, on a fixed monthly basis. Book a free consultation for a quote.

How often would we work together?

It's flexible — monthly, quarterly, or around key milestones like fundraising. We shape it around your needs.

Is my business big enough for a virtual FD?

If you're growing, raising money, or feel your numbers have outgrown basic bookkeeping, it's worth a conversation. We'll be honest about whether it's right for you yet.
