About us

Finance expertise, connected from direction to delivery.

iRAISE brings CFO leadership, finance consulting and managed finance into one team. Our local office is in Bromley, with people in the USA, the UAE, India and Singapore.

One firm

One team for advice and implementation

Our model connects senior finance advice with the people who implement it. Strategy, forecasts, reporting, accounting operations and tax work can draw from one current financial picture.

You can engage us for a defined consulting project, ongoing finance leadership, the monthly finance cycle or additional capacity for an accountancy practice. The scope follows the work rather than a turnover threshold.

Experience

Experience applied to the work in front of you

The experience, qualifications and investor-network work described below span iRAISE’s global operations. The team brought into each UK engagement depends on the work.

  1. Big Four and Fortune 500 experience

    The group includes people who have worked in Big Four firms and Fortune 500 companies.

  2. Professional qualifications

    The group’s professional qualification pool spans financial accounting, management accounting and information-systems audit.

  3. Funding preparation and investor networks

    Team members have supported funding preparation and worked with private equity and venture capital networks. We prepare the financial case and supporting information; introductions and funding are outside the engagement.

Where we work from

Five locations, one team

Our five locations help keep work moving outside UK business hours. UK expertise stays close to UK accounting and tax matters, while the wider team adds capacity and specialist input.

Compliance work is done in-house. It is never passed to a partner firm.

How we work

How we work with clients

  1. We work alongside your team. You get a named contact for routine queries, and direct access to a senior person when important decisions require guidance.

  2. We use technology where it earns its place. Better accuracy, a faster close and clearer reporting — not dashboards for their own sake.

  3. We go beyond compliance. Filing on time is the baseline, not the offer.

  4. We size the engagement to the work. Choose CFO Services, Strategy & Finance Consulting, Managed Finance Services or Accountancy Practice Support. Combine pillars when the work crosses more than one area.
