Hand finance off to experts, so you can build what matters.
We embed senior finance specialists into your business, building the models, reports, and financial infrastructure that let you make decisions with conviction.
Founders & operators hand off their corporate finance function to Ancore.
Most growing businesses have an accountant. Very few have someone who can tell them what the numbers actually mean or what to do about it.
Ancore's fractional finance team fills that gap. We build the models, run the reporting, and sit inside your business as the expert you need, without the cost or risk of a full-time CFO hire.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Ancore covers the full range of senior financial work that growing businesses need but rarely have in-house. That includes budgeting and forecasting, financial modelling, monthly management reporting, company and project valuation, acquisition and partnership search, and equity analysis. The work is delivered by a senior finance specialist who owns the output and sits inside your business as long as you need them. For businesses that want ongoing support, that engagement runs on a fractional basis.
-
Most clients already have one. Your accountant handles compliance and transactional work. Ancore sits above that layer - we take what your accountant produces and turn it into something you can actually make decisions from. The two roles complement each other and don't overlap.
-
When you're raising capital, evaluating an acquisition, planning a major investment, or trying to move beyond gut-feel decision making. A model lets you stress-test assumptions before you commit, not after. Ancore builds models designed to be used in live decisions - not just presented once and filed away.
-
A management report that connects financial performance to what's actually happening in the business. You get variance analysis against budget, a forward-looking cash flow view, and a plain-language narrative that gives leadership a genuine grip on the numbers. Delivered within 5 days of month-end. Ongoing support runs on a fractional basis after the initial setup.
-
Yes, both are covered as standalone services. For acquisitions, we identify, screen, and approach targets that fit your strategic and financial brief. For partnerships, we run a structured search to find organisations that unlock distribution, capability, or market access. In both cases we facilitate the early conversations, not just hand over a list.
