For companies without an in-house Chief Financial Officer, we offer a way to have a qualified leader with vast expertise become an extension of your business without all the high employee costs. This service is ideal for situations where there is an interim position to fill within your organization or where expertise is needed to pick up the finance responsibilities so you can focus on the future of the business. As your Fractional CFO, we become one of the organization's financial leaders by not only providing detailed financial reporting, overseeing the budgeting process, and managing the in-house financial team but also supporting even the most complex decision-making.

From a 90-day intensive assessment of your current financial operations to transforming unstructured books, creating functioning financial systems, and optimizing your financial software, we offer hands-on support to get it done right.
