Who we help
CFO Pilot is for the stage where gut feel stops working and full-time finance isn't yet the answer. Typically $1m–$35m turnover, growing fast, or navigating something complex.
Founders scaling past $1m
Revenue is real but the numbers are blurry. You need clear reporting, cash flow visibility, and someone who can tell you the truth about your margins.
Typical range · $1m – $10m turnover
Businesses raising capital
Investor conversations are live. You need a financial model that holds up to due diligence, a clean forecast, and numbers you can stand behind in the room.
Capital raise · seed to Series A
Owner-operators going for sale
Exit is on the horizon. Normalised accounts, EBITDA presentation, and data room readiness can meaningfully shift what your business is worth.
Sell-side preparation · 6–24 months out
SMEs replacing their accountant
Your accountant does compliance. You need someone who thinks strategically about the business, not just ticks boxes at EOFY. That's the gap CFO Pilot fills.
Ongoing advisory · $3m – $35m turnover
Businesses navigating complexity
Multi-entity structures, international operations, grant acquittal, visa sponsorship financials — situations where you need a CFO who's been there.
Industries · manufacturing, construction, healthcare, logistics, aerospace
Startups getting serious
You're past the scrappy phase. It's time for a proper chart of accounts, a bookkeeper who's supervised, and monthly reporting that actually tells you something.
Finance foundations · pre-revenue to $5m
