Not-Fractional, Whole People

Startups and SMEs often require the strategic expertise of a seasoned Finance Director, Operations Director or NED, but may not have the capacity to appoint them on a full-time basis. Newstone fills that gap with:

  • Finance Director and Operations leadership
  • Independent NEDs who bring governance, challenge, and clarity
  • Board and leadership meeting preparation, structure, and follow-through

Our philosophy is simple: better boards make better decisions. Independent challenge, paired with grounded operational and financial experience, reduces risk and improves outcomes.

Finance Support

We specialise in building finance functions that genuinely support decision-making—not just compliance. Support includes:

  • Day-to-day bookkeeping and reconciliations
  • Management accounts that tell the story behind the numbers
  • Budgets and rolling forecasts aligned to your strategy
  • Year-end pack preparation, so you get your statutory account quicker, and reduce accountancy costs

You’re not just paying for tasks—you’re accessing decades of experience in spotting issues early, presenting clean information, and ensuring your numbers stand up to scrutiny.

Recruitment and Contractor Support

Growing businesses often struggle with the people side of scaling. We help you:

  • Define roles that reflect your real business needs
  • Help you make confident recruitment and contractor decisions
  • Set up or streamline payroll for accuracy, compliance, and clarity

Project Management and Operations

From system implementations to multi-site rollouts, Newstone brings deep operational experience to:

  • Plan and deliver projects with clear scope, timelines, and accountability
  • Build and document procedures so the business runs smoothly without over-relying on individuals
  • Create reporting structures so leadership teams see the right information at the right time

Our goal is to help you professionalise operations without becoming bureaucratic or slow.

Investment, Angel Support and Community

Newstone is more than a consultancy—we are also investors and community partners. We have access to a substantial fund that can be given or loaned to the right businesses, accompanied by hands-on support.

We also help with:

  • Readiness for external investors or lenders
  • Intern placements via partners, supporting local students

Our long-term ambition is to build a network of local businesses that support each other and raise the standard of the Milton Keynes and Northampton start up and SME ecosystem.
