About Us

We’re Not Consultants. We’re Your Strategic Finance Team.

Growth CFO exists to give founder-CEOs financial clarity, structure, and confidence—without the bloat of big-firm consulting or the limits of a solo CFO.

We know hiring a CFO feels like a $250K gamble. That’s why we built a safer, smarter path.
