At Wise Up Now we help organisations maximise their commercial success by developing tailored programs which enable finance staff to deliver proper commercial insights. We offer highly tailored programs in Finance Business Partnering, Finance Transformation, Commercial Acumen & Professional Education.

In the field of finance business partnering Wise Up Now’s founding partner Sean Purcell is a global expert. If you review the CPD programs on Finance Business Partnering for the ACCA, CGMA and AICPA which represent three of the worlds largest professional accounting bodies it is likely that Sean is the author.

Sean has been involved in research and working with finance teams on finance business partnering since 2010 and has worked with over 1000 global finance business partners.

In order to improve the competencies of finance staff, we recognise that the training they have received has almost exclusively been focused on acquiring technical knowledge without any exposure to the skills needed for the new world of finance. In this new world much of the technical information is now provided for by bots and empathy, commercial acumen, good communication and influencing skills are what is needed to deliver the best insights.

To deliver this we work with clients to provide tailored solutions which best fit their needs which sometimes involve working with more than just the finance function.
