Our History

John founded CFO & MORE in 2016 after realising the potential of a boutique service which would provide elite guidance, on a part time basis, to firms for whom such expertise would be impractical or too costly as a full time resource.
Since its inception, the company has generated rapid and strong annual growth, both for CFO & MORE and its clients. In recent years it has grown from a start-up to an established consultancy with a network of professionals, and a reputation for excellence, integrity and value.

Join Us

CFO & MORE is interested in recruiting talented and driven school leavers in the summer period, who we look to train to become qualified with the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants (CIMA), and to be a long-term CFO & MORE professional.

Dominic from CFO & More

About Dominic

When I discovered CFO & More, after completing my A-levels, it was clear that they were offering a great opportunity for anyone looking to start a career in accountancy. It was a chance to get in at the roots of a firm and develop as a professional alongside the company.

 

I have thoroughly enjoyed my time since joining CFO & More, the firm has a very friendly ethos and you quickly settle in as a part of the tight-knit team.
