The Strategic Advantages of

Outsourcing Finance and Credit Control By Sean Farnell Partner at Burgis & Bullock

I

n the ever-evolving business landscape, the model of outsourcing finance functions and credit control used to be considered something fit only for SMEs, but now larger businesses are seeing its benefits. Burgis & Bullock has witnessed a surge in interest for our outsourced bookkeeping service, reflecting a growing trend among businesses of all sizes. Traditionally, smaller businesses turned to financial outsourcing due to limited internal resources. Now, larger organisations are recognising the benefits, especially in mitigating the risks associated with recruitment and hiring. With outsourcing, concerns about holiday and sickness cover are alleviated, as a dedicated team is poised to support your business seamlessly. Our outsourced services cater to businesses across the spectrum,

from sole traders to multi-million turnover enterprises. Beyond bookkeeping and payroll, we provide proactive credit control, saving businesses valuable time on invoice chasing and fortifying their cash flow. Our virtual cloud credit control solution has proven immensely beneficial, fostering reliable payments and strengthening customer relationships. By outsourcing businesses can ensure that they have regular access to up-to-date financial information, which can contribute to stronger and more accurate management reports and ultimately drive better data-drive business decisions. Addressing late payments, a concern highlighted in the Autumn Statement, is a crucial aspect of our financial outsourcing services. Burgis & Bullock is committed to supporting businesses in navigating this challenge, and we eagerly anticipated the impact of government initiatives in this regard. Financial outsourcing continues to gain popularity for its time and cost efficiency benefits.

By sidestepping the overhead costs associated with hiring in-house finance professionals, which can be increasingly costly as a business continues to grow, businesses can channel resources more effectively. Our outsourced services seamlessly scale with business's growth trajectory, eliminating the need for additional hires. In the fast-paced business environment, time is money. Outsourcing services such as bookkeeping and payroll allow internal teams to concentrate on strategic decisionmaking. Our experts possess up-to-date knowledge of accounting regulations and leverage the latest technology, ensuring your financial matters are managed with precision. Burgis & Bullock collaborates with clients to deliver a full outsourced solution, interim support during peak periods, or specialised guidance on complex financial matters.
