Strategic financial leadership for manufacturing and industrial SMEs.

I partner with CEOs across Europe, Africa, and the Middle East to fix cash volatility, sharpen margin visibility, and build finance functions that support long-term value creation.

A CFO partner — not outsourced commodity support.

I work with founders and CEOs running manufacturing, industrial, and venture-backed businesses where cash is tight, reporting is unclear, and margin visibility is weak.

My role is to bring the financial discipline and strategic framing typically reserved for larger companies — liquidity planning, capital allocation thinking, clean reporting cadence, and a finance team that can scale with the business.

Engagements are retainer-based, senior-led, and built around cadence rather than hours. Clients work directly with me.

  • Liquidity and cash flow management
  • Financial strategy and capital allocation
  • Management reporting and margin clarity
  • Finance systems and process design
  • Building and leading finance teams
  • Board and investor communication

Three ways to work together.

Tiers are fit-based, not progression-based. The right starting point depends on where the business is and what the CEO needs most.
