Management Reporting
Monthly packs that help you run the business. Clear P&L, cash, key KPIs, and commentary in plain English, delivered on a consistent schedule so you can spot trends quickly.
What we do
- Monthly management accounts and KPI dashboards
- Variance analysis (actual vs budget, trend lines, what changed and why)
- Cash position and short-term cash planning
- Plain-English narrative and action points
- Pack formats suitable for founders, boards, and investors
How we do it
- Set the pack: choose KPIs and the structure that matters to you
- Fix the source: make sure bookkeeping and data inputs are reliable
- Monthly cadence: close the month, produce the pack, review together
- Iterate: refine as your business evolves
Items to note
- Consistency beats complexity: the same format each month makes patterns obvious.
- Management accounts are only as good as the underlying bookkeeping and coding.
- We keep the narrative tight: what happened, why, and what you do next.
What we need from you
- Access to bookkeeping (Xero) and bank
- Agreement on KPI definitions (so the numbers mean the same thing each month)
- Any monthly context (one-offs, major changes, new hires, pricing shifts)
Typical timeline
- First pack: usually within the first month after setup and clean data inputs.
- Ongoing: delivered on a fixed schedule agreed with you.
More detail
Management accounts are only valuable if they are timely and actionable. We design packs so you can see performance quickly: what changed, why it changed, and what decisions it implies. That might be adjusting pricing, tightening costs, focusing on a segment, or fixing collection issues that are hurting cash.
We keep the format consistent month to month. That consistency is what makes trends obvious. Over time, the pack becomes a tool you and your team actually use, not a PDF that gets filed away. If you need board-ready reporting, we can shape the same core numbers into a narrative suitable for investors and stakeholders.
