The Right CFO at the Right Time

Not every organisation needs the same CFO. Sometimes, the financial foundations need to be strengthened first. Sometimes, the challenge lies in improving management information and decision-making. And sometimes, growth or change requires someone who can bring finance, strategy and execution together.
Crispijn Finance & Control can provide support at each of these stages — temporarily, on a project basis or for a longer period.

Below are three examples from practice.

 1. Getting the Fundamentals Right
An international organisation needed greater control over its finance function. Processes were traditionally structured, while internal management and responsibilities were not sufficiently clear.
Crispijn Finance & Control introduced greater structure to processes, responsibilities and team organisation. This resulted in better control over execution, greater insight into performance and reliable management information.
 

2. From Numbers to Value
Once the foundations were in place, the role shifted from operational to strategic. Dashboards provided insight into customer performance and margins, while finance became a regular sparring partner for management.
As a result, decisions were better informed, opportunities were identified more quickly and financial insights were actively used in decision-making.

3. One Finance Function, One Direction
In the next phase, the focus shifted to bringing together and professionalising the finance function across the group. Systems, processes and ways of working were further integrated.
This created greater alignment, faster decision-making and a finance function that actively contributes to improvement and growth.

The right financial support depends on the stage your organisation is in.
