A Crimson Bench CFO gives management, investors, lenders, and auditors a finance function that can withstand diligence: clean numbers, clear cash visibility, and capital decisions tied to operating reality.
Six tiers. One bench. Zero hidden fees.
Every tier deploys your CFO — same operator, scaled to the depth of mandate your fintech or payments company needs.
Intensive corporate audit. Client submits raw P&L or operational overview; executive delivers a 3-page triage roadmap.
Two 90-minute advisory calls per month with asynchronous email and Slack access for high-level decision support.
Dedicated C-suite oversight. Executive owns KPI tracking, manages team meetings, and drives weekly execution.
Deep operational execution. Best for rapid scaling phases, pre-funding rounds, or intensive systemic cleanups.
Full-time (4–5 days/week) coverage during acute crises, sudden executive departures, or active global executive searches.
Physical placement at corporate HQ, manufacturing facilities, or boardrooms. Calculated on location, travel, lodging, and complexity.
