Joe Newbold

Fractional CFO

I’m Joe, a Fractional CFO with over 20 years of experience in streamlining finance functions, tech-stacks and FinOps processes.

One thing that's paramount is 'we don't fix it until it's broken'. If something works then we take time to understand why. Every business is unique; billing platforms, automation, customer specifics etc.

I don't believe in forcing a system in place that 80% fits because I get a referral fee, that's not the way it should be and often leads to a short-term result.


Honesty 100% of the way, if I don't think I can help I will say so.
