Outsourced CFO
Strategic financial leadership for your organisation
Our Outsourced CFO service places an experienced Chief Financial Officer at your fingertips. This dedicated expert becomes part of your senior leadership team, providing high-level financial insight and guidance to your CEO and Board.
Your outsourced CFO works closely with your executives to understand your organisation’s goals and challenges. They bring big-picture financial leadership: analysing your organisation’s financial health, advising on strategy, assisting in building financial literacy among the board and staff, and ensuring clarity and confidence in your financial position.
This support helps your organisation pursue its mission with sound financial stewardship backing every decision.
Our outsourced CFOs place a strong emphasis on consistent, transparent communication. You can expect regular financial updates, clear and concise explanations of your results, and proactive discussions about emerging issues. By supporting the financial governance of your NFP, we provide your stakeholders with confidence that your finances are being managed responsibly.
Comprehensive CFO services
Delivering the critical functions
An outsourced CFO from Accounting For Good delivers the critical functions of an in-house CFO, tailored to the needs of charities and not for profits. Key responsibilities of our Outsourced CFO include:

- Budgeting: Overseeing the development of budgets and guiding long-term financial planning to keep your organisation on a sustainable path.
- Board reporting and meetings: Attending finance committee and board meetings to present clear, meaningful reports and analyses, ensuring leadership has a transparent view of the finances.
- Grants, fundraising and compliance: Supporting the financial management of grants and fundraising income, and assisting with regulatory compliance requirements.

Sector specialisation
An extension of your leadership team
Gain senior financial capability without needing to recruit, manage or fund an executive-level salary. We provide high-level financial insight, support budget development, guide long-term planning and present clear, meaningful reports to your board.
Our CFO understands sector trends, assess risks, and ensure you make informed decisions grounded in accurate financial data. For organisations that rely on grants, fundraising and multi-year funding cycles, an outsourced CFO offers oversight of acquittals, cashflow strategy and program costing, strengthening operational planning and governance.
We rely on their financial reporting. The reports are always fantastic, and it’s useful for the Board to get a much richer set of reports that are easy to understand. Carol comes to the meetings and presents where we are up to… it’s just spot on!”
