CFO and finance support provides interim or fractional senior finance leadership when your business needs stability, rhythm, and board-ready reporting during change.
When it applies
Leadership transitions, rapid growth, system changes, or transaction aftermath often strain finance teams. External support should restore month-end discipline, cash visibility, and credible forecasts without delaying decisions.
We work alongside existing staff — clarifying roles, not creating parallel reporting lines.
Typical work
Month-end oversight, budget and forecast processes, board pack preparation, banking metrics, and finance team coaching.
We may also redesign close checklists and delegation so capability remains after handover.
Outcomes sought
Predictable reporting dates, fewer surprises in cash, and materials your board and bank can rely on.
Documentation that auditors and advisers can follow without repeated rework.

Frequently asked questions
When is interim CFO support appropriate?
Leadership transitions, rapid growth, system changes, or post-transaction periods when month-end discipline and board reporting need stabilising quickly.
Will you replace our finance team?
No. We work alongside existing staff, clarify roles, and aim to leave capability behind after handover.
What does a typical week look like?
Agreed at kick-off — often month-end oversight, cash and forecast reviews, board pack preparation, and coaching for finance managers.
How long do interim engagements run?
From a few months to a year depending on hire timing and stabilisation — scoped with clear exit and handover.
What clients say
“Interim support stabilised month-end within two cycles. We kept our team; Glenlyon left us with checklists and a board pack format we still use.”
“Glenlyon rebuilt our forecast model so the board and bank were looking at the same definitions. Covenant discussions became factual instead of defensive.”
