Working with YRH

Yes. We’re certified experts in Xero, Sage, QuickBooks and most major platforms. We enhance what you have before suggesting changes.

A: No, we complement them perfectly. Your accountant handles statutory compliance and tax planning. We provide monthly operational insights and ensure everything’s ready for year-end. Different expertise working together.

Excellent. Many FDs and CFOs work with us to handle operational tasks, provide specialist analysis, or manage specific projects. This frees them for strategic work while ensuring operational excellence.

We add specialist expertise and bandwidth where needed. Many clients have talented internal teams who benefit from additional capabilities in areas like cash flow optimisation, management reporting, or during busy periods. We enhance, not replace.

Services and Expertise

Our 100+ team means deeper expertise than any single hire. We focus on measurable outcomes (12-18% profit improvement typical), and our flexible model scales with your needs. Average client relationships exceed 4 years.

No. We design the right combination for your specific situation. Some clients need comprehensive support, others specific expertise. Start with what matters most, expand if valuable.

We provide 12 integrated services from management accounting and cash flow optimisation to systems enhancement and credit control. Each client receives the specific combination that matches their needs.

Financial accounting records transactions and ensures compliance – looking backwards. Management accounting provides forward-looking analysis for decisions – revealing profitability by product/service, cash flow forecasts, and KPIs that drive growth.

Getting Started

Businesses from £1.5M-£10M typically see the greatest impact. You’ve moved beyond basic bookkeeping but may not need full-time specialist hires.

Based on the services and level of support you need. We provide clear, fixed monthly fees so you can budget confidently. No hidden costs or surprises.

Completely flexible. From two days monthly to multiple days weekly. We scale to match your needs and can adjust as you grow.

Typically within 2-3 weeks. First insights often emerge within days of starting. Full ROI usually achieved within 60-90 days.

Results and Outcomes

Our flexible model means we can adjust services, scale up or down, or conclude our engagement professionally. Though with 4+ year average relationships, most clients expand rather than reduce services.

Yes. Craster discovered 92% of revenue came from 15 clients, enabling 10-fold growth. SkillWise improved cash by £120k in 60 days. Black Cow received comprehensive pension accuracy review. Real clients, verified outcomes.

First insights within 2-3 weeks. Quick wins often implemented within the first month. Full transformation typically within 90 days. ROI usually achieved within 60-90 days.

Consistently across our client base: 12-18% profit improvement opportunities identified, £50k-£120k cash flow enhancement, 40-60% faster strategic decisions, and 10+ hours weekly returned to leadership.

For Different Decision Makers

Consider both options. An FD brings strategic leadership. YRH provides operational excellence through 100+ specialists at typically 40% of FD cost. Many businesses need operations first, strategy later.

Enhanced financial intelligence that supports better decisions, improved cash flow for investment, reduced time on financial admin, and peace of mind from professional standards throughout.

Additional bandwidth for peak periods, specialist expertise for specific projects, operational support that frees you for strategy, and backup for continuity. Many CFOs/FDs value the thinking partner aspect.

Gain clear monthly visibility for confident decisions, free up time for strategic focus, and access insights that drive growth. Many CEOs report YRH enables them to work “on” not “in” the business.
