Elif Controlling Assistant

The monthly management accounts (BWA) arrive as a table of figures, and turning them into something you can actually read and use, what has changed and whether it matters, is usually what gets left undone. Elif takes this on: she reads the new BWA against the previous months and the plan and writes an assessment in plain language that names anything out of the ordinary.

What Elif takes on

  • Reads the new BWA together with the previous months and the annual plan.
  • Writes an assessment in plain language of what has changed and why, rather than in accounting jargon.
  • Names anything out of the ordinary: a cost item outside the usual pattern, a shift in margin, a deviation from the plan.
  • Delivers the draft for review before it goes beyond the finance department.

What Elif needs from you

Elif starts as soon as the BWA is available regularly and the previous months are archived, plus access to a mailbox for delivery.

The first few weeks

From day one, Elif reads the new BWA against the previous months and the plan and delivers the assessment for review. Over the first few weeks it becomes clearer what counts as out of the ordinary, and with every piece of feedback the assessment becomes more accurate.

What changes

  • The BWA arrives with an interpretation, not just as a printout.
  • Anything out of the ordinary is named instead of getting lost in the table of figures.
  • The monthly close comes with context before anyone has to decipher it themselves.
