Accounting and CFO Services for Growing Businesses

People & Expertise

Led by senior finance experience.

Direct access to CFO-level thinking, supported by a flexible finance delivery model for ambitious SMEs, startups and growth businesses.

You do not need a big finance department. You need the right finance expertise at the right time.

Founder-led · Senior input · Practical delivery

Not a traditional team page

Founder-led finance support, built around your business.

WAKE Accounting is deliberately senior-led. Clients get direct access to experienced finance leadership, not layers of junior account management.

The business is led by us, with specialist bookkeeping, payroll, accounting, tax and finance support brought in where required. That gives clients a practical, scalable finance function without the fixed cost of building a full internal team.

You work directly with senior CFO and CEO experience, supported by trusted specialists when the work calls for it. No layers, no handoffs — just the right expertise applied to your business.

The WAKE difference

Senior finance expertise, delivered directly.

WAKE pairs the rigour of a large practice with the access and accountability of a founder-led firm — built for SMEs that need real commercial input, not just a name on the file.

Founder-led

Every engagement is led personally by us — clients always know who is accountable and who is guiding the work.

Senior, not junior

You speak with someone whose value is commercial judgement, not just processing transactions.

Scalable model

Support expands as you grow — from core compliance to monthly reporting and a full outsourced finance function.

Transparent delivery

Clear scope, clear pricing, real expertise. No inflated org charts or hidden hand-offs.
