The Little Big Difference

Little Big Consulting was founded with a simple but powerful idea: SMEs aren’t just smaller versions of large corporations. They have unique challenges and opportunities that require tailored financial expertise.

As businesses grow, their operations become more complex, and their finance function must evolve accordingly. A well-structured finance team isn’t just about managing numbers; it’s about driving profitability, improving decision-making, and ensuring long-term sustainability. That’s where I come in.

I’m Akin Karaca, a Chartered Accountant with over 20 years of experience navigating both SMEs and large enterprises. From leading financial transformations to building high-performing teams and designing reporting frameworks, I’ve helped businesses find clarity, stability, and sustainable growth.

Before finance, I was a professional tour guide, an unexpected but valuable foundation for what I do today. Good tour guiding isn’t just about rattling off historical facts; it’s about knowing what matters, telling stories that resonate, and keeping people engaged. As a finance partner, I believe in storytelling, making complex financials clear, and ensuring business stakeholders understand the ‘why’ behind the numbers, so they can make informed decisions with confidence. My approach is direct, professional, and practical, with a touch of humour to keep things engaging.

At Little Big Consulting, I do more than just handing over reports, I partner with you to drive results and optimise your finance function. Whether you need additional resources for your existing team, strategic guidance, or a financial structure that supports growth, I provide the insights, structure, and support to ensure your finance function is working for you.
