Fractional
Empowering global business success with fractional finance and HR support - save time, stress, and money by outsourcing your finance and HR operations to us.
Expert Experience When - And Where - You Need It
If your business is expanding globally but doesn’t have the budget to recruit entire teams of full-time finance and HR specialists, then you’ve come to the right place.
We’ll provide your business with flexible, tailored HR and accounting support on a fractional basis. This means you’ll get senior-level expertise without having to hire senior-level staff. Whether you’re the owner or director of a business or part of a leadership team, we’re ready to discuss your needs today.
Unrivalled Fractional Finance And HR Support At Your Fingertips
Navigating the complexities of finance and human resources is hard at the best of times. But when you’re expanding into completely new countries or continents, it’s even harder. There are so many labor laws, regulations, and cultural nuances to wrap your head around. Attempting to do so without dedicated local support is not only a drain on your time, but it could also lead to costly errors. And even if you look to hire full-time finance and HR employees in your chosen jurisdiction, it can be time consuming and expensive for your business.
That’s where working with our team of seasoned local experts comes in. Our on-the-ground consultants have years of experience in their designated jurisdictions. They will work as an extension of your team, delivering the strategic guidance you need to expand successfully.
Whether you want to remain compliant with local tax regulations, oversee employee relations, or streamline your business’s financial processes—or all three—our team is ready to work with you.
Finance Director
A fractional Finance Director (FFD) will provide strategic leadership across the board, offering invaluable insights that boost your business’s top and bottom line, encompassing areas such as financial forecasting and cash flow management, compliance, securing funding and risk management.
They’ve been there, done that, and got the t-shirt. By leveraging their expertise, your business will mitigate risk, optimise costs, and position itself as an attractive investment opportunity in the future.
Finance Manager
Whereas an FFD operates at a more strategic, advisory level, a fractional Finance Manager is more involved in the day-to-day running of your business. They will work closely with your internal teams to ensure that your financial operations are streamlined across the board, including your policies and procedures, budgeting, reporting, invoicing and payroll. Your fractional Finance Manager can also help you navigate federal, state, and local tax laws, drawing upon their in-depth, up-to-date knowledge of their jurisdiction.
Finance Temp Cover
There could be any number of reasons your business requires temporary, outsourced finance support. Managing a surge in workload that exceeds your team’s current capacity, covering for staff absences due to maternity leave or long-term illness or addressing a particular need within the business without needing to make a long-term commitment to a permanent member of staff.
Whether it’s for one of these reasons or another reason that you need outsourced finance cover, you’ll get the support you need with Briars. By outsourcing your critical financial functions to us, you’re ensuring complete continuity within your business as it expands internationally.
HR Director
A fractional HR Director (HRD) provides strategic HR leadership, ensuring your business attracts, retains, and develops top talent while staying compliant with local employment laws. With their deep expertise, they’ll help you build a resilient workforce, streamline HR processes, and foster a high-performing company culture.
Their experience allows them to navigate complex HR challenges with ease, helping your business stay agile, compliant, and people-focused as it scales.
HR Business Partner
A fractional HR Business Partner (HRBP) works closely with employees and managers to support day-to-day operations, bridging the gap between strategy and execution. Unlike an HR Director, who provides high-level leadership, an HRBP focuses on implementing HR initiatives at a functional level.
They provide hands-on support with HR policies, performance management, recruitment, leadership coaching, conflict resolution, and compensation programs. By outsourcing these essential tasks, you’ll free up valuable time while ensuring your workforce remains engaged, supported, and aligned with your business goals.
HR Temp Cover
If you need interim support to cover a specific role or project during business hours, we can source an expert who can provide this for you.
As we wrote in the Finance Temp Cover section above, working with one of our experts means you don’t have to assume certain responsibilities you’re not being paid for until someone returns from maternity leave or until you replace someone who has recently left your business.
It also prevents you from having to delegate menial tasks to employees, thus diverting their attention from more important areas.
