A Virtual CFO doesn’t come with the high wage cost of employing a full time CFO.

A good virtual CFO is right-hand to the boss — but on the numbers side. Working as part of your company’s leadership, a great CFO is someone who has worked for bigger corporations, has been head of finance, is skilled in your business’s niche and knows how the numbers affect the decision-making process of department managers and the CEO.

For a fraction of the cost of hiring a full-time CFO, your business can reap the benefits of a commercially minded and highly experienced professional by hiring a virtual CFO. Whether you’re looking for a one-off engagement or would like the services of a virtual CFO for an agreed-upon fixed monthly fee, an outsourced CFO will provide infinitely more than their price in improved cash flow, profit and business value.

There’s never been a better time to try the services of a virtual CFO. At CFO On-Call, our team is ready to offer online services anywhere in the country. Whether you’re in Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, or any of the surrounding rural regions and you’re looking for a part-time CFO for hire, we’ve got you covered.

Do you need greater certainty in the financial outcome? SMEs who could only dream of hiring a virtual CFO are now able to take advantage of a CFO On-Call. Arrange a chat to learn more about how our virtual CFO services can help your business today.

Virtual CFO Solutions FAQ’s

How much does a Virtual CFO cost?

Generally a Virtual CFO charges vary based on your business objectives and size. A good Virtual CFO will deliver many times their cost in improved profit, Cash Flow and business value. They should be able to identify ‘quick wins’ straight away for a business. You don’t need to supervise them… they walk in and identify quickly what needs fixing… after a brief discussion with a business owner.

Why do I need a Virtual CFO when I have an accountant?

CFO services are specialised. The issues covered are very detailed and the person delivering the service needs an intimate understanding of the business. Generally speaking tax/compliance accountants don’t have this type of training and background i.e. they have mostly worked in an accounting practise, rather than at the ‘coal face’ in commerce. You can’t gain CFO knowledge from a course… The true value comes from living it over decades in the ‘real world’, working with lots of different businesses, seeing the pitfalls and knowing how to avoid them.

How do CFO services help with Business Growth Guidance?

Business Growth can be a tricky time for business owners.  The resources required to achieve sustainable growth needs careful consideration.  It’s tempting to think that growth in sales will fix everything else, however CFOs have experienced situations where this definitely isn’t the case!

With business growth comes a need for extra cash to cover more sales, extra resources e.g. premises, wages, stock etc. to deliver more sales.  This needs to be carefully understood and the cash requirement factored in.  Extra funds may need to be sourced externally and a CFO can help ensure a business gets the funding it needs.  A Virtual CFO acts as a facilitator with lenders/investors to answer their questions and present the business as an attractive proposition for them.

When is the right time to hire a virtual CFO?

Your business will benefit greatly from hiring a virtual CFO, no matter what stage it’s at. For businesses just starting out, an outsourced CFO will help set up processes, admin, and numbers management. A virtual CFO can help established businesses with disorganised financials and assist businesses needing accurate information to branch out and increase growth. If you’re a business owner wanting to exit or sell your business, a virtual CFO will help plan the sale and maximise the value of your business to achieve the best sale price. Put simply, any company looking to increase its overall value would be good to consider hiring a virtual CFO.

Which industries does CFO On-Call’s virtual CFO specialise in?

If you’re looking for a virtual CFO in Australia, look no further than CFO On-Call.

How does a virtual CFO differ from an interim or temporary CFO?

A virtual CFO provides ongoing, remote financial expertise and strategic support, often on a part-time basis. An interim or temporary CFO, on the other hand, fills the CFO role on-site for a limited period, typically during transitions or until a permanent CFO is hired. Virtual chief financial officers offer long-term, flexible engagement, while interim CFOs address immediate, short-term needs.
