Our Fractional CFOs and Venture Advisers typically work 2-5 days per month, supported where appropriate by outsourced bookkeepers and/or your own Finance Manager, based on the circumstances and stage of your company. This is explored during the initial consultation and can be flexed depending on short term requirements that may arise.

AI is changing the way we work, enabling us to focus on high value-add tasks while reducing cumbersome administrative tasks to just a few clicks.
At Growth CFO we are embracing AI. We have developed AI Agents to assist us in-house, but we have now shared publicly for all Founders to use (subscription plans available for higher usage thresholds).

Meet our Founders
Our Founders qualified as accountants at Deloitte and then spent 20+ years each investing, managing and raising capital for small and growth companies in the UK and Europe. We have deep & direct experience on both sides of the table: as CEO & CFO of startups that have been through successful fundraises as well as investors helping companies grow.
We know how to help successfully grow and scale a company, and our panel of Fractional CFOs and Venture Advisers have the skill set and experience to help make your company a success.
