Hey there, and welcome to Smart Growth, the show where we dive into what’s really fueling today’s most successful startups and growing businesses. I’m your host, Adrian, and today we’re talking finance—but not the dry, spreadsheet-heavy kind.
We’re talking strategic finance. And more specifically, how a Fractional Financial Controller could be the game-changer your business needs.
So if you’re running a growing company, wondering how to tighten financial controls without breaking the bank, stick around. Because today, we’re diving into a solution that’s lean, smart, and built for scale.
Let’s go.
💡 Segment 1: What Is a Fractional Financial Controller? And Why Now?
Alright, so let’s start with the basics.
A Fractional Financial Controller is exactly what it sounds like — an experienced finance professional who works with your business part-time, remotely, or on an as-needed basis.
You get all the value of a senior finance leader — financial reporting, cash flow management, budget oversight, investor readiness — without the full-time salary or overhead.
Perfect for startups, scale-ups, and small businesses that are moving fast but still need rock-solid financial controls.
And here’s the kicker: this isn’t just about keeping your books in order. It’s about gaining clarity, control, and confidence in your financial decisions.
