Portfolio CFO for scale‑focused founders
I help founders create clarity, control, and a business that can scale.
Based in Sydney, I operate across the whole business — the only person outside the CEO with full visibility and accountability.

Most growing SMEs hit the same wall:
-
The CEO is across everything and stretched too thin
-
The numbers don’t match the story
-
Cashflow feels unpredictable
-
Teams are busy but not aligned
-
Growth exposes operational gaps
-
The business is too big for a finance manager, but not ready for a full‑time CFO
If this sounds familiar, you don’t need more reports.
You need someone who can help you run the business.
What founders struggle with
I’m not a virtual CFO or a consultant.
I’m a Portfolio CFO with operating depth — part CFO, part COO, part strategic partner.
I bring:
-
CFO‑level financial clarity
-
COO‑level operating rhythm
-
CEO‑level judgement
-
Multi‑entity and multi‑market experience
-
Governance maturity and investor‑grade discipline
-
Capital readiness — bank‑ready, investor‑ready and due‑diligence‑ready financial
I translate strategy → numbers → execution.
And I build the cadence that keeps the business moving.
What I do differently
Who I work with
Founders and CEOs of scale‑focused SMEs who want:
-
A business that runs cleanly
-
A leadership team aligned to targets
-
A model they can trust
-
A clear path to scale
-
A partner who can operate across finance, operations, people, and strategy
-
Support preparing for funding, capital or acquisition
Typically $5m–$100m revenue, multi‑entity, or preparing for growth, capital, or exit.
What changes when we work together
You get:
-
A clear operating rhythm
-
A model that tells the truth
-
Metrics that drive behaviour
-
Teams aligned to targets
-
Governance that reduces risk
-
A CEO freed from the weeds
-
A business that can scale without chaos
This is the work that transforms a founder‑led business into a scale‑ready organisation.
