Fractional Revenue Operations & FinOps (Controller) · $3-20M ARR

Your finance function outgrew the way it was put together.

Not the people — the plumbing. Six systems, three spreadsheets and a handful of handoffs nobody documented. I rebuild the operating layer underneath finance, and run it until you are ready to hire.

Every company has all seven layers. Below twenty million in revenue, almost none of them have anyone assigned to the fourth one.

Milestone projects

Fixed scope, fixed fee, finite

Not everything needs a retainer. These are defined builds with a start, an end, and a deliverable you own outright. Standalone or inside an ongoing engagement.

Three ways in

Fractional Revenue Operations retainer MONTHLY
Fractional FinOps (Controller) retainer MONTHLY
A one-time milestone project FIXED FEE
Scoped and priced on the intro call NEXT STEP

Start wherever the problem actually is, or schedule a call and we can figure out the best path forward.

Not sure which one

Start with the Diagnostic instead.

Three weeks, one price, and a clear list of what's actually broken — the fee credits against month one of either retainer.

Fit

This works for a narrow band of companies

Good fit

  • B2B SaaS or recurring-revenue, $3–20M ARR
  • Post-Series A, 25–200 people
  • Subscriptions, multi-year terms, services or usage in the mix
  • A bookkeeper or staff accountant, but no controller or RevOps function
  • Quote-to-Cash Process is painful
  • Mixed revenue models — software plus services is where the gaps are largest

Not a fit

  • AP runs, payroll processing, or tax preparation — outside scope entirely
  • Audits, reviews, compilations, or other attest/assurance engagements — not a CPA firm; work with a licensed CPA for these
  • Wanting only bank/card reconciliations and transaction entry rather than a strategic role — that's the separate, lighter Bookkeeping service
  • Under $3M ARR — there isn't enough to reconcile yet
  • Over $20M ARR — hire this role, and I'll tell you so on the call
  • One-time revenue with no renewal motion
  • Wanting a tool implemented rather than a problem diagnosed
  • Needing someone on site more than occasionally

Brighton, Michigan

I run finance operations inside a software company every day — revenue recognition across entities, billing operations, the month-end close, the reporting package leadership actually uses, and the systems work that holds all of it together. Ten years of it.

The reason I do it outside as well is that the problem is identical everywhere. The CRM belongs to sales. The ledger belongs to accounting. The layer between them belongs to no one, and it is where both the leakage and the late close come from.

What I'm good at is building the system: the close schedule, the reconciliation framework, the forecast model, the controls that make next month run without heroics. What I don't do inside the fractional roles is process transactions — that's a separate, lighter Bookkeeping service if you need it, but the system work above is where I spend most of my time.

I take on a small number of clients at a time. If I don't have capacity, I'll tell you on the first call rather than after.

Discussing these areas usually tells me which side of the seam your problem sits on, and whether there's anything worth chasing. If there isn't, I'll say so and we're done.
