FAQ

Honest answers, common questions.

Do you replace a full-time hire or supplement one?
Both. Most fractional finance hires are 2–3 days a week. Full-time placements are possible too.
Can they handle a fundraise?
Yes. At every senior level. We’ve done multiple Series B–D rounds with our finance leads.
What about compliance. SOC 2, ISO?
Several leads have been the named SOC 2 owner at a previous company. They run the prep, not the audit.
