Manufacturing Consultant in Liverpool & Online
Strategic CFO Support to Boost Profit and Streamline Operations.
Your Trusted Manufacturing and Operations Consultant with First Hand Experience
Based near Manchester and working with businesses across the North West – including Liverpool – and countless more across the nation online, we support manufacturing and distribution companies that want to grow without losing control of their cash.
If you’re running a manufacturing or distribution business and feel like you’re making sales but still can’t see where the money’s going – you’re not alone. When you’re juggling cash flow, firefighting operations, and managing staff and suppliers, profit and business growth can feel impossible without clear financial strategy.
At Logical BI, we offer CFO services designed to bring financial clarity, increase profits, and give you space to breathe again. Whether you’re in manufacturing, distribution, or a product or service-based business, we’ll help you stop firefighting and start forward-planning.
Operations Consulting with Industry Knowledge
You need a manufacturing finance consultant who not only crunches the numbers but has worked with “boots on the ground” within the industry. At Logical BI, we bring over 25 years of hands-on experience in manufacturing, distribution, and operations consulting to help you gain clarity, control, and profit.

What You Can Expect from a CFO Retainer
Every business is different. Whether you’re turning over £1M or scaling towards £30M, you deserve director-level financial support – without the cost of a full-time hire. That’s exactly how Pauline and Logical BI can help you.
Tailored Support on a Retainer Basis
You’ll receive part-time, on-demand access to me (Pauline). I’m a senior manufacturing consultant with 25 years’ experience in delivering strategic financial direction to companies of all sizes. I’ll structure our engagement to fit your needs.
How we Start: Diagnosing Before We Prescribe
You wouldn’t change parts in your car without running a full diagnostic. If the power’s sluggish and it’s not accelerating as it should, the mechanic isn’t just going to guess which bit to swap. They’ll look at the full picture first – because without understanding the real cause, the fix might make no difference… and cost you more.
The same goes for your business.
Before we jump into recommendations, we start with a full strategic deep dive. What story are your P&L and balance sheet telling?
This deep diagnostic gives you the clarity you’ve been missing. And once we find the bottlenecks, blind spots or easy wins, we don’t just fix them – we build a smarter strategy around them. That’s how we turn performance into profit.
From Strategy to Implementation
Beyond strategy sessions, (depending on your individual requirements), I roll up my sleeves to help implement new systems, support or host regular management meetings, train and mentor your finance team, review supplier performance, and streamline operational processes. It’s about turning insight into action – and creating the accountability needed to keep progress moving.

“I felt like I could do with some financial help which I’ve never really had before and I wanted a professional view on what I was doing and how I could improve. Within the first couple of sessions Pauline had me fine tuning my profits on products and nailing down where most of my good business was coming from. She offered tips and advice which I had never considered or thought of and because of that I’ve put things in place for which I’m already benefitting from. Our 121 meetings were always insightful and not only is she a fabulous person but she knows her stuff. I’ve got a working spreadsheet which I can now manage going forward for forecasting and managed accounts.
I can personally highly recommend the 6 months project as it was enough to really dig deep into my business and help me with a plan to move forward. Thanks so much Pauline!”

“I started working with Pauline after being in business for a few years – I wanted to work with a finance partner that not only represented my values, but who I could trust to support me as my company evolved and my requirements changed. She certainly hasn’t disappointed! Pauline is not only an absolute expert at what she does, and a constant support for my company whenever questions or queries come up, but she’s also incredibly friendly and approachable, as is the rest of her team! If you’re looking for a finance partner who will always have your back, you won’t regret working with Pauline and her team.”
