Admor Business Solutions is a business consultancy practice and we specialise in improving two critical areas for private companies and charities – business finances and corporate governance. We recognise that sometimes owners and directors need to reach out for specialist support and so we use our extensive experience of both these areas to do just that.
Working very closely with company and charity boards we methodically review your organisation against best practice governance principles and financial standards. Then we provide you with a clear SMART action plan for improvement.
We focus on the root of any problem before we identify and recommend any solutions. Our approach is to start at the beginning by enabling the board to benchmark your organisation against best practice standards. This structured approach results in a practical, clear, Action Plan to improve any gaps or weaknesses and strengthen your organisation.
For instance if you are a charity, then check out this explainer video. It shows you how our Charity Governance Review will enable you and your board to practically assess and improve your governance standards.

We offer you and your board a practical and structured approach to developing and improving your organisation.
Our unique Charity Governance Review process enables trustees to quickly assess the quality of your current governance standards. No more guessing, as this will accurately pinpoint how you currently meet the standards and how you don’t. And you will generate your own personalised Report and SMART Action Plan instantly so you can start immediately on any necessary improvements.
Our Business Financial Reviews provide you with benchmarks on best practice for your business. And we will work with you to develop clear, practical actions to improve your business finances.

Founded in 2004, Admor Business Solutions began as a financial mentoring, training and consultancy business. Our name “Admor" is derived from old Irish, meaning “good luck." Our name also reflects our genuine determination to add real value to your organisation.
Based in Belfast, we operate across Ireland and the UK, providing both remote and in-person high quality services. As the business landscape has evolved, we’ve embraced online platforms, including video calls, webinars, and remote support. But we haven’t forgotten the high impact and benefits of a good old face to face meeting!
Ø Core business focus is important: Focus on what you do best and delegate or outsource distractions
Ø Delegation is ok, abdication isn’t: If you delegate, ensure you maintain proper control to avoid later problems
Ø Good governance is a priority: If you’re a Trustee, prioritise good governance and seek external expert support when you need it
Ø Governance and board effectiveness are interlinked: Both are intertwined and so one enhances the other
Ø Constructive challenge is good: Seek and respect alternative views for the effective functioning of your board
Ø Strong financial structures are critical: Robust financial processes and controls are critical for success
Ø Develop clear policies and procedures: Clarity on how to do things enhances organisational effectiveness and reduces problems
Ø Identify key issues quickly: Address the root of the problem as soon as you can rather than have to sporadically fix issues on the hoof when they arise
Ø Managing risks is essential: Identify your key risks, develop a robust risk policy, effectively manage your risks and benefit from the improved returns
We’re really keen to work with boards of private companies and charities ambitious to improve and develop your finances and corporate governance standards.
We’re also very interested in exploring opportunities globally with member organisations that want to define and enhance engagement with your members and key stakeholders.
