Fractional CFO

Company: Confidential
Position: Fractional CFO – 100% Remote
Location: Austin, Texas
Compensation: $75-$85/hour incentive
Hours: 25-35/week

The Challenge: 

SMBs suffer from low levels of profitability and routinely go out of business, adversely affecting families and communities.  The industry we serve averages a 6% operating profit margin.  Why so low?  One big reason is the lack of financial leadership.  We think every company should have an operating profit margin of at least 10% to 12% .

The Opportunity: 

Improve the profit margin of small and medium-sized (SMB) businesses, the life margin of owners, and the autonomy of employees.  We are financial leaders on a mission for SMB ($3M-$100M) companies, owners, employees and their families, and communities to thrive.

Using our proprietary process, you will lead in pricing, operational reporting, incentive plans, and business strategy. (We do not perform the other CFO-level functions for our clients.)

We measure our success by the increase in our clients’ operating profit margin.

The Company:

We are a team innovating the way financial leadership is provided in the SMB market.  We have a track record of success and the feel of a start-up.  Our clients expect us to bring an executive-level strategic vision and implementation, and we have very high standards for our services to clients.

This is a 100% remote position that provides location flexibility to work from home (anywhere in Texas) during business hours.

You will not be required to sell or obtain new clients. Our customers appreciate us and often refer us to other owners - the ultimate compliment.
