Ebook: the Optimal Finance Team Structure
Build the optimal finance team to manage your treasury depending on your revenue
This white paper answers the following questions:
- At what thresholds is it necessary for the Finance team to take on new tasks - cash investments, collections, etc.?
- What criteria should be used to determine whether it is necessary to recruit a full-time treasurer and equip the company with a TMS?
- What are the job descriptions for the various team members and how do they evolve as the company grows?
Methodology: We have carried out an analysis of over 5,000 client companies and conducted interviews with CFOs to help you optimise the organisation of your Finance team and its tasks.
5 examples of typical Finance teams according to turnover threshold
We have detailed the most efficient organisation chart for the following 5 turnover thresholds: £1-10m, £10-25m, £25-50m, £50-100m and >£100m. In each case, the organisation chart includes the following information: number of people in the team and per position, degree of necessity of the position (mandatory or optional), job title and identification of the main people responsible for cash management.
