Consulting Accountant
& CFO Services
Pat and his team offer CFO services, consulting accountant services and business scaling advice for local businesses.
It can be hard to know whether or not your business is reaching its maximum financial potential. Sometimes this is true even if you’re in the business of finance yourself.
Two of the most pivotal roles for any business are the roles of the chief financial officer (CFO) and accountant. A CFO oversees the bigger picture of a company’s finances, looking after the budgeting, planning and running of financial activities. A senior role that requires extensive experience, a CFO will report directly to the CEO and provide recommendations.
It may be common knowledge that an accountant keeps financial records, prepares reports from the data and reports to management. However, accountants also have a number of other crucial responsibilities: securing the data, investigating any discrepancies, preparing payments, providing financial information to various departments and generally keeping the company financially secure. It’s a role that involves economic savvy, honesty, great communication skills, a good head for numbers and figures and so much more. And if you want your business to thrive, neither of these roles should be left in the hands of amateurs.
Every CEO and entrepreneur wants to scale their business, to set the stage for bigger and better things without letting present limitations hamper the company’s growth. Yet while advice on how to scale your business is common (you can find no shortage of articles on Google about the topic), mentorship from a dedicated and attentive professional who has been there and done that is a lot rarer.
This is why Robards Advisory aims to be the most valuable resource on the market for Southeast Queensland businesspeople looking to take charge of their company’s finances – and take them to the next level.
Pat has been involved in finance, accounting and business for three decades and he knows those industries inside and out. Big or small, your business is certain to thrive under his guidance. Read on to find out a little more information about how Pat can assist you, and click on the contact details to get started.
Consulting Chief Financial Officer (CFO)
The CFO is the company’s foremost financial controller, assuming ultimate responsibility for everything related to the business’s cash flow and finances. CFOs help companies overcome their financial weaknesses and boost their financial strengths. They take control of tasks such as managing the accounting team and providing the executive team with informed financial advice. Not only do CFOs need to have strong leadership and people skills, they also need to have a proven track record of competent financial management over time in order to prove they’re up to such a significant responsibility.
Pat Robards has that track record. His work history is long and impressive, from his role as Principal and Tax Agent at his own company Robards and Rose to his role as accountant with KWL Accounting and Senior Accountant with DKM Group. His decades of experience in finance and business make him a clear choice for providing CFO services.
