Why this workshop exists

The crisis nobody trained your managers for

0

UK company insolvencies in 2025 (Insolvency Service) — compulsory liquidations at their highest since 2012

1 in 190

UK companies entered insolvency in 2025

0%+

of insolvencies involve owner-managed businesses under £1m turnover

0%

of business failures are linked to cash flow problems (bank studies)

Only 0%

of UK SMEs regularly produce a cash flow forecast

0 per day

small businesses closing because of late payment; £11bn lost to the UK economy annually

Behind every one of these numbers is a manager who saw the warning signs in the accounts — and didn't know how to read them. This workshop exists to change that.

Figures are averages across delivered corporate cohorts, measured against an agreed baseline. Every participant in this workshop sits the same before-and-after assessment — so your growth is measured, not assumed.

Organisations invest £32,500 + VAT to run the Finance Fluency Corporate Accelerator for their leadership teams. Executive cohort places are £2,750 + VAT per person. This two-day online workshop delivers the same core curriculum, the same decision frameworks, and the same measured assessment for £997 — locked until applications close at 5:00pm, 3 September 2026 — because we believe financial fluency shouldn't be reserved for those whose employer pays.

Sound familiar?

  • You nod along in finance meetings, hoping nobody asks you a question
  • You approve budgets you don't fully understand
  • Your promotion case is weakened because you "don't speak numbers"
  • You run a team or business but the accountant's report might as well be in another language
  • You make gut-feel decisions where a 5-minute calculation would have saved thousands

Financial confusion isn't a personality trait. It's a skills gap — and it closes in two focused days.

Finance fluency is the core competency behind UK Skilled Worker–eligible managerial roles (RQF 6) · Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) roles: SOC 1131, 1132, 1139, 2440, 3556 — all require financial decision-making · Build the exact competency UK employers look for before issuing a Certificate of Sponsorship · Delivered by a UK Licensed Accountant who advises businesses on sponsor licence compliance · Every module includes a ready-to-use financial tool you apply to real work the very next morning·

Finance fluency opens doors — including sponsored managerial careers

The Skill Behind UK Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) & Skilled Worker Visa Roles

Why this matters for sponsorship

A UK employer can only issue a Certificate of Sponsorship (CoS) for a role on the Skilled Worker eligible occupation list — and almost every eligible managerial occupation is defined by budget ownership, margin decisions and financial reporting. This workshop builds precisely that competency, so you can credibly compete for the managerial roles employers sponsor.

Under the UK's points-based immigration system, the Skilled Worker route is now reserved mainly for degree-level (RQF 6) occupations — and the managerial roles that qualify all share one core competency: the ability to read, interpret, and act on financial information. Budgets, margins, cash flow, and cost decisions sit at the heart of every eligible management occupation. This workshop builds exactly that competency — the fluency that helps you compete for, win, and hold these roles.

Source: Home Office Appendix Skilled Occupations going rates in force since 22 July 2025. Eligibility, salary thresholds and sponsorship rules are set by the Home Office and depend on the employer holding a sponsor licence — this workshop builds the professional competency these roles require; it does not itself confer visa eligibility.

Every one of these roles involves budget ownership, margin decisions, and financial reporting. When two candidates compete for a managerial role — or when an employer decides who is worth sponsoring — the one who speaks the language of the numbers stands out. And because the workshop is delivered by a UK Licensed Accountant who also advises businesses on sponsor licence compliance, the finance skills you build are the ones UK employers and the Home Office genuinely expect of managerial roles.

What delegates say

I stopped nodding along in board meetings. Within a fortnight I was the one asking the questions about margin, and my director noticed.

Rachael Adeyemi

Operations Manager · Logistics group, Manchester

We repriced two service lines using the contribution framework on day one. It added just over £14,000 to the next quarter.

Stuart Mackenzie

Managing Director · Facilities services, Dundee

Two days replaced years of pretending I understood the accounts. The cash flow tracker alone paid for the seat in a month.

Ngozi Okafor

Charity Trustee · Community trust, Birmingham

Femi explains numbers the way a good mentor would. No jargon, no showing off, just clarity I could use on the Monday morning.

David Lindsay

Head of Projects · Construction consultancy, Glasgow

I now build the annual budget myself instead of waiting on the accountant. My board papers are shorter and far sharper.

Amara Bello

Practice Manager · Healthcare group, London

The break-even analyser changed how we quote work. We walked away from two loss-making contracts without hesitating.

Helen Carthew

Commercial Lead · Engineering firm, Leeds
