Brief
Fractional FC, FD and CFO
A named principal in the finance seat — owner-managed or PE-backed — on a defined monthly retainer.
Most mid-market manufacturers do not need a full-time CFO. They need someone who can take the seat for two to eight days a month: the board pack, the cash view, the bank, and enough of the close that the numbers can be trusted.
Savastute takes that seat. The height of the work is agreed in writing — investor reporting at one end, month-end files at the other. Most retainers need both in the same month. SME retainers and corporate or PE contracts are both in scope.
You work with Paul Yeates. If a specialist is required, that is named and priced before they appear.
Board-level finance without carrying a full-time hire you cannot fill.
