The UK’s professional services sector is a diverse one, covering everything from accountants and architects to lawyers and IT consultants. It’s also a key contributor to the UK economy, accounting for 15% of GDP, 14% of employment and 14% of exports.
Despite spanning an array of different professions, the majority of professional services require specialist training or licences. For example, nobody can be a lawyer or establish their own legal practice unless they have a recognized qualification and the relevant training. This isn’t the case when it comes to launching a company in other industries, such as retail, food or hospitality.
An expensive business
High salaries are commonplace in the professional services sector, with law, architecture and accountancy listed among the world’s most lucrative professions. Because of this, it can be difficult to grow a business in such industries without being well capitalized.
Like all businesses, professional services firms have regular running costs to contend with, including wages, utilities and stock, not to mention expenses that are unique to specific industries, such as legal costs for law firms and technical equipment for architects or IT consultants.
The specialist nature of professional services means that companies operating in the sector can charge a high amount for their work. However, with legal cases and building projects tending to differ in their complexity, revenue can be subject to monthly fluctuations, putting pressure on cash flow. That’s where debt finance – typically in the form of business loans – can help.
