BOARD ADVISORY SERVICES

Case Studies & Opinion Pieces

Anchor 1

Nobody can build a great business alone, and whether it’s a start up or an established industry leader, having access to high-quality advice can enhance an organisation’s odds of success. Who you have on the advisory board can also have a large impact on the overall success of your business. With their strong advisory, financial, leadership and strategic abilities and experience, a part-time CFO can make robust and independent addition to your advisory board.

One of the milestone developments of your business will be the creation of an advisory board. It could be the next step in reporting and governance or a pre-cursor to a Board of Directors. Whilst it is important to have an industry specialist and frequently, someone strong in governance such as a lawyer, having a strong financial head independent to the accounting and finance team is key to the success of the advisory board.

The Problem

Like employing a key member of staff you need to ensure your advisory member is the right person for the job. They need to be professionally certified, and have substantial experience both reporting to boards and being on boards. They need to be able to interrogate the numbers and provide advice and alternatives.

How CFO Evolve can help your Business

CFO Evolve only employs a CFO if they are professionally certified and have extensive experience as a finance and accounting officer or controller as either a CFO or they have gone on to CEO, Managing Director or overall general management.

 

We do not employ financial controllers or accountants who may not have the depth of strategic experience to ensure you get the right person for your advisory board. Whilst we match you with the perfect part-time CFO for your business and growth strategy, all of our part-time CFOs are highly experienced across the suite of our services.
