Fractional CFO (1–2 Days per Week)
Description

Fractional / Outsourced CFO | Profitable, Founder-Led Healthcare Business | 1–2 Days per Week | FD Capital

FD Capital is partnering with a profitable, founder-led healthcare infrastructure business to appoint a fractional CFO during a period of significant growth.

Our client is not VC- or PE-backed and isn't burning investor cash. They're profitable, cash-flow-positive, bootstrapped and family-owned, with real revenue and complex fulfilment, supplier, stock, cashflow and margin dynamics. This isn't an investor-theatre brief — they need someone who knows how to help a profitable, founder-led business scale through better forecasting, cash discipline, margin visibility and financial controls.

This is a strategic role that sits above day-to-day finance. You won't run the finance operation — a Financial Controller is being hired in parallel for that — and helping shape and land that hire is one of your early priorities.

Core workstreams (in priority order)

  • A robust, granular, bottom-up P&L and forecast model (base / upside / downside)
  • Cashflow, VAT and working capital strategy for scaling volumes, including cash reserves and external facilities
  • Finance function roadmap and Financial Controller oversight, including their first 90-day plan
  • Margin, cost-to-serve and client profitability framework
  • A cost allocation methodology for usage-based operational suppliers
  • Investment, resource and strategic decision support — the financial challenge layer for the directors
  • A practical monthly management reporting cadence (no bureaucracy for its own sake)
Responsibilities

What our client is looking for

  • A genuine CFO who has helped profitable, operational, founder-led businesses scale — not just venture-backed growth stories
  • Strong on forecasting, cash and working capital, margin and cost-to-serve, and finance function design
  • Comfortable building frameworks and architecture early, before clean real-time actuals exist
  • Able to provide independent technical challenge (e.g. R&D, capex) above external accountants
  • A partner to founders who advises, challenges and designs — without becoming an expensive part-time Financial Controller

Engagement: Likely front-loaded during the initial diagnostic and design phase, settling into roughly 1–2 days per week as a regular strategic review and challenge rhythm. Candidates are welcome to propose their cadence, 90-day deliverables and day-rate / retainer options.
