How Can a Fractional Accountant Benefit Your Business?
There are a wide range of benefits that can be had by choosing our fractional finance services. We can source experienced professionals to compliment your existing finance department.
Fractional accounting services can provide valuable interim support if an existing team member is on a long leave of absence (like maternity or long-term sickness). They can also be a great solution if your current team needs assistance with their workload, but there isn’t enough work to justify hiring a full-time employee. Our fractional finance candidates are experienced at adapting to existing teams, and building great working relationships with their colleagues.
Another benefit of our CFO accounting services is that the professionals we have have the ability to bring a fresh perspective to your organisation. As a leading fractional accounting firm, we provide candidates that are able to provide recommendations to improve current processes or suggestions that will help you to reach your financial goals.

Fractional accountants provide the personal, bespoke service of an in-house accountant, without the need to budget for a full-time salary when it may not be necessary. Fractional accountants can be sourced to work within every sector, from retail and hospitality, to STEM and manufacturing. Hire CFO will listen to your needs and source the ideal person for your business.
How much does a fractional accountant cost?
What qualifications does a part-time accounting professional need?
While a bachelor’s degree is the only essential qualification that Hire CFO candidates must carry for fractional accounting positions, many of our candidates have additional qualifications, as well as several years of relevant experience. We only represent and recommend finance professionals at the top of their game, which is why so many of our clients choose us to provide them with fractional accounting services over non-specialised recruiting firms.
What’s the difference between an accountant and a bookkeeper?
Whereas an accountant must typically possess a 4-year bachelor’s degree (or equivalent), bookkeeping requires no formal qualifications (though relevant qualifications are available, and would likely benefit the bookkeeper’s practice). Therefore, although an accountant is able to typically fulfil all the duties that a bookkeeper role demands, the reverse is generally not true.
