Small Business Financial Advisor

A Small Business Financial Advisor works with owners of small businesses to improve their profitability. You might find ways for businesses to increase their profit margins, find new customers or take the business in a new direction. Small Business Financial Advisors look at issues such as cash flow, budgeting, taxation and cost of overheads. You might make overall recommendations for the business to improve or develop strategies for particular business areas.

Small Business Financial Advisors need to have good personal skills and be able to communicate with business owners in a range of industries. You need to be able to listen to their individual circumstances and understand the issues involved. Small Business Financial Advisors should be good with numbers and have strong attention to detail.
