Accounting & Financial Operations
Build a reliable financial foundation with bookkeeping, month-end close, reporting and controller support.
Your next step
When the books have to be rebuilt before they can be used
These are the signals that point to the recurring accounting work: bookkeeping, the close, the reporting that comes out of it, and the controls around them.
- Your bookkeeping and month-end close need more attention.
- You need financial reporting and internal controls that support your next stage.
This service covers the work that has to run every period. Where the team also handles billing and collections, the scope takes in receivables and payables. Where a finance function is being built or a gap is being covered, it takes in interim controller support.
Service scope
Where we can help
Discuss your current setup and priorities with the team to find the scope that fits your business.
Scope is agreed before the work starts: what Cypher prepares, what your team keeps, and the review steps in between. Approvals, payments, bank mandates and the decisions the numbers inform stay with management.
- Tax returns, filing positions and tax advice stay with your tax professional.
- Where an engagement needs a valuation or another specialist opinion, that is a separate engagement.
- Bookkeeping and month-end close optimization
- Technical accounting support
- Financial reporting and internal controls
- Interim Controller services
The work itself
How the recurring work runs
- Bookkeeping runs in your accounting system across bank, card and payment platform activity, with the same steps each period so the records do not depend on who is available.
- The close is a defined sequence: reconciliations, the schedules the reporting depends on, and the open items listed for a decision rather than carried forward.
- Reporting is produced from the closed records, so management, lenders and investors work from one set of numbers.
- Billing, invoicing and collections move into a defined process, so the receivables position is reviewed rather than discovered at the end of a period.
What comes out of it
What the work produces
Reconciliations and open items
The reconciliations behind the close, with uncategorized items, missing support and questions listed for management.
A controller view
An experienced reviewer on the reporting and the questions behind it, where the scope includes controller support.
