What our clients are looking for

Every engagement is different. Most start with one of these — and we work with listed, private, non-profit, and member-owned businesses alike.

Reporting you can trust

Accurate, timely numbers that tell you what's actually happening — monthly reporting that owners, boards, and banks can rely on.

A strategic sounding board

Seasoned advice on pricing, growth, capital, and the big calls — senior CFO thinking without the full-time cost.

Interim leadership

A safe pair of hands when your CFO departs — steadying the team, the close, and the bank while you hire the right person.

Systems that scale

ERP selection and implementation, automation, and AI-enabled process improvement that ends the spreadsheet chaos.

Cash & capital confidence

Rolling cash forecasts, working-capital discipline, and lender-ready reporting that keeps funding conversations easy.

Deal & investor readiness

Diligence preparation, PE-sponsor reporting, and transaction support from someone who has sat on both sides of the table.

Three decades. Three continents. One specialty.

Kevin has spent 25+ years building and scaling finance organizations for founder-led, PE-backed, listed, and multi-entity businesses across the U.S., Australia, and the U.K. A builder by instinct, he has stood up finance functions from scratch, tripled a U.S. bank's balance sheet, and delivered turnarounds measured in the tens of millions — usually as the closest advisor to the CEO, the board, or the sponsor.

No problem too small — most clients are businesses with US$10M+ in revenue: listed, private, non-profit, and member-owned.

Common finance headaches — and how we take them off your desk.

“The monthly numbers show up late — and we’re not sure we trust them.”
A disciplined close and a reporting pack built for decisions: accurate, on time, and readable by humans.
“Cash is tight and we can’t see far enough ahead.”
Rolling 13-week cash forecasting, working-capital discipline, and early, credible conversations with lenders.
“Our CFO just left, and the search will take months.”
Day-one interim leadership that steadies the team and the close — and helps you hire the right permanent CFO.
“We’ve outgrown our systems; everything lives in spreadsheets.”
Pragmatic ERP and automation roadmaps — implemented, not just recommended.
“An investor, buyer, or audit is coming and we’re not ready.”
Diligence-grade financials, data rooms, and PE-standard reporting before anyone starts asking.
