"Briars has been an invaluable partner in our UK-to-US expansion journey. Serving as our Fractional Finance Director, they seamlessly integrated into our leadership team, providing expert financial insights. Their participation in board meetings and strategic planning has elevated our decision-making. Engaging Briars not only saved costs compared to a full-time CFO but also ensured financial excellence. We highly recommend Briars for their dedicated and impactful finance services."

"We were in a bit of a mess attempting international expansion, costs escalating, progress stalling we were at the point of pulling back to UK only. Enter Briars, recommended by our PE firm. It's been a game-changer—one partnership, streamlined service, and a welcome end to the chaos. Their voice on our board is invaluable and service a weight off our mind."
