Contract CFO & Controllership

Our Contract CFO & Controllership service delivers top-notch financial guidance for your day-to-day operations and excellent bench strength at those really important meetings.

Let us fill the gaps in your accounting and financial requirements. We have the experts and suite of services to let you keep your eye on the ball, and the bottom line.

Overview

Most small businesses can see the benefit of having a CFO, but they are unable to afford to have a qualified, full-time CFO on staff. Our Contract CFO and Controllership service allows entrepreneurs to take advantage of practical financial advice on an as-needed basis, and to have the on-demand strategic insights that a CFO or Controller can bring to the table.

Our team of financial experts will tackle the accounting activities you don’t have the time or resources to complete. We can provide a Financial Controller during the year-end crunch or while existing staff are on parental leave; bring in a management accountant to analyze a prospective business line; or supply a bookkeeper to cover vacation time.
