Interim Controller Services

Unlike traditional firms that rely on junior teams or contractors, we embed highly experienced operators directly onto your team.

Our consultants are chosen from the top 10% of the market and are our full-time employees who combine deep technical expertise with hands-on operational experience, averaging 20+ years in the field.

This means you get the perfectly chosen expert for your specific needs, who operates as an extension of your team, drives immediate results, and elevates your entire finance operation through their proven methodologies and industry knowledge.

We exclusively hire senior finance professionals who have both led and executed complex financial operations in many real-world scenarios.

Each consultant must demonstrate exceptional technical expertise, strategic thinking, and a proven track record of success across challenging business environments.

Our consultants have actually "sat in the seat" - meaning they've held senior finance positions and truly understand the day-to-day challenges of running finance operations. This combination of technical knowledge and practical experience matched to your specific challenges enables them to deliver superior results.

Our leadership & Client Services teams are made up of experienced finance and accounting consultants themselves, so they actually viscerally understand what your challenges are and who's best suited on our team to solve them.

We also use a precise diagnostic approach to match the right expert to your specific challenges by carefully evaluating project requirements, industry context, and technical needs to deploy consultants with directly relevant experience.

Our very selective hiring process maintains a diverse pool of specialists across many finance disciplines, ensuring we can address any financial challenge with the exact expertise needed. While out on a project, each of our consultants can leverage the collective knowledge & experience of all ~100 experts on the team whenever needed.

This strategic matching process, refined over years of successful engagements, maximizes project success and client satisfaction.

Rather than simply directing work, they actively engage in developing your team's skills, sharing best practices, and creating documented procedures for key processes. This collaborative approach ensures your team gains valuable expertise while establishing more efficient workflows and controls that persist beyond the engagement. They can also provide a gap analysis to understand what skillsets are missing from the current structure. 

Our Controllers bring extensive experience across major ERPs and financial software platforms. They can optimize your existing systems or lead new implementations while ensuring proper controls and efficient processes are maintained.

Their expertise spans leading platforms like SAP, Oracle, NetSuite, and QuickBooks, as well as various reporting, budgeting, and analytics tools. Their expertise also extends to leading payroll systems, including ADP, Paycom, Paylocity, and Workday.
