Episode notes
What’s it take to be a fractional CFO? I’m talking with Elliott Gasper from OxConsult . He’s a hands-on fixer who’s raised millions and scaled companies big-time. Now, he’s shaking up fractional finance. Elliot shares the three types of fractional CFOs he has identified so far and which bucket he falls under. The industry is still growing and with a lot of noise, business owners still don’t get what fractional CFOs do. But Elliot loves that because it’s a chance to make real impact for businesses. He also shared how having dyslexia as a kid got him labelled a “terrible employee.” Now? It’s his problem-crushing superpower. He’s also kicked off the Fractional Finance Forum—CFOs sharing battle scars and hacks. Solo gig, but teamwork wins. As I mentioned, I’m teaming up with Elliott for an upcoming webinar where we’ll be discussing the best finance tech stack for 2025 with industry experts: Monday 24th March, 3pm (GMT) Register now to secure your spot and get your finance function future-ready!
