Finance Department – CFO

Financial rigour to maximise value creation.
In a volatile environment, cash flow management, reliable reporting and cost optimisation are not merely administrative tasks; they are the key drivers of value creation. A weak finance function or a leadership vacuum poses a direct risk to profitability and credibility with the Board of Directors and investors.
EPUNTO’s Interim Chief Financial Officer service provides a C-level executive who takes full control of the finances from day one. Our Interim CFOs are experts in steering turnarounds, managing cash flow under pressure, professionalising reporting for private equity funds, and leading critical processes such as M&A or raising capital.
What is the difference between an interim CFO, a consultant and an auditor?
The auditor reviews the past and certifies the accounts. The financial consultant analyses the situation and recommends a roadmap. Our Interim CFO delivers results in the present and shapes the future: they assume full legal and managerial responsibility for the finance function, lead the team, sit on the Management Committee and are responsible for optimising cash flow, ensuring the reliability of reporting and managing relations with banks and investors.
How long does it take to appoint a Finance Director?
A vacancy in finance poses an immediate risk. We understand the urgency. Our process enables us to present vetted C-level candidates within 48–72 hours, ensuring that a finance leader is in place in under 10 days to stabilise the function.
What specific experience do your interim CFOs have in private equity?
We speak the language of private equity funds. Our executives have proven experience in portfolio companies, with a thorough understanding of the required reporting (e.g. covenants, cash flow bridges, net debt), the management of M&A processes (due diligence) and the maximisation of EBITDA to prepare for an exit.
What happens if the interim CFO is the ideal person to stay on permanently?
Our assignments are temporary and goal-oriented (e.g. restructuring a department, leading a transaction). However, if, during the assignment, both parties (the client and the professional) agree to a transition to a permanent role, we facilitate the process with complete transparency.
How do you ensure that the CFO is aligned with the CEO and the Board?
The Interim CFO is the CEO’s key partner and acts as a guarantor for the Board. Their remit is defined from the outset with clear KPIs aligned with the business plan and value creation. They are 100 per cent accountable to executive management, providing the rigour and objectivity that senior management requires.
