Our story
We build and run smart finance functions® and data analytics for fast-growth and complex businesses.
Our mission is to deliver relevant insight that enables better business decisions.
How it started
In 2017, there were two accountants, Alastair and Luke, with a passion for technology and data, and a belief that the needs of fast-growth tech companies weren’t being met by established accounting firms; there was too much gazing into a rear-view mirror and a passive nod-along ‘involvement’ in the business.
They wanted to up the ante. They wanted to harness cloud technology to give founders real-time meaningful insight and be a commercial voice at the Board table.
So, they set out to bring their Big Four experience and knowledge of best practice finance functions, to tailor it for scaling, fast-growth companies. And flinder was born.
Pioneering change
Since then, flinder has been a disrupter and a pioneer; shaking up the accounting industry and acting as a catalyst for change. It’s at the forefront of the industry in its creation of smart finance functions® to accelerate the growth of tech, SaaS and e-commerce businesses.
flinder is now the technology and data-led finance partner to some of the most exciting fast-growth businesses helping them to improve performance, prepare for investment and scale operations.
The benchmark
While we’re proud to have won a number of awards on our journey, we're also involved in judging others across accounting, tech and e-commerce awards. We also help shape the future of the profession contributing to various panels, advisory boards and steering committees.
Thanks to our team and clients for continually pushing us.
We don't just talk fast-growth, we live it

Our ethos
Fast-growth business leaders need responsive reporting and relevant insight now, not tomorrow.
We think finance should be all the things you are. Technology-driven. Data-led. Agile. Commercial. Strategic. Insightful.
We cut through the fluff to deliver meaningful, real-time insight. We get you ready for funding. We support you on the Board. With our help, you have the insight and evidence to tell a great story about your business.
We know what investors want. Companies we have worked with have raised over £250 million. With our support, you will continue to grow.
What's the deal, why a butterfly?
