A Cleckheaton firm providing specialist part-time and temporary financial directors has added to its team of interim finance directors.

FDYL has recruited James Roach and Janet Pryke to become part of its experienced team of associate FDs.

Ms Pryke was recruited to strengthen FDYL’s business in South Yorkshire, working alongside one of the company’s directors, Martin Greenshields.

She is now working with a £26m turnover motor trade business in Yorkshire. Taking up the role of financial director, she will oversee the day-to-day activities of the finance team.

Mr Roach is a commercially-focused finance professional with experience in supporting owner-managed businesses in the £1m to £5m range.

He has regularly been “parachuted” into businesses with cash pressure or refinancing requirements, but also specialises in helping to grow start-up and early stage businesses.

He has recently been deployed by FDYL at a growing entertainment software business in Bradford where he has taken up an interim FD role and is responsible for the business’s entire finance function.

Mr Roach also runs his own successful construction company and uses this experience to assist business owners in shaping and developing their business objectives.

FDYL managing partner Neil Muffitt said: “There is a varied mix of issues facing the clients we work with. Some businesses have managed to turn a corner and are now looking to grow again while some businesses are continuing to deal with the hangover of a recession.

“Whatever their reason, it is encouraging to see the number of businesses realising the benefits of installing an interim finance director or controller in order to help them achieve their goals.”
