For 15 years, Sam our founder spent his career supporting businesses with strategic finance human capital requirements, he says:

“I kept hearing the same thing over and over: companies needed strategic CFO support, but the market wasn't actually built for them.

The options were all wrong. Complicated contracts with hidden terms you couldn't escape. "Flexible CFO support" that wasn't flexible at all, firms that overcharged clients while underpaying the CFOs doing the real work, or finance recruitment agencies that were more suited to placing full time staff. I spent my earlier career in financial recruitment and later in CFO business advisory, supporting technology & life science scale ups.

Having worked with established corporates, private equity and venture capital backed scale ups and boot strapped founders, I wanted to take this experience of working with some of the fastest growing companies in the UK to found cfobuzz.com.

I founded cfobuzz.com as a CFO-As-A-Service subscription business. Subscribing to cfobuzz will give you access to your very own own local CFO based in your region.

cfobuzz exists because you shouldn't have to lock yourself into a complex contract just to get experienced CFO expertise. Whether you're navigating a funding round, preparing for sale, or building profitable growth in a scale up or established business, you should be able to bring my team in exactly when you need us, then scale back down. No penalties. No awkwardly worded contracts so complicated you only understand them when you try to leave.

That's what I'm here to do: work with ambitious businesses at every stage and give you real CFO expertise on your terms.

Fractional, part-time, interim/full-time…whatever model fits your business, we've built it without tie-ins or lock-ins. Just subscribe to the CFO support you actually need on a flexible rolling monthly contract”.
