What we do

Fractional CFO expertise and AI automation — delivered part-time, flexibly and without the full-time cost.

Cash Flow + Forecasting

Always know where you stand

Cash flow is the lifeblood of every growing business — yet most founders are flying blind. We build rolling forecasts that give you real-time visibility, flag risks early, and the confidence to make big decisions.

  • 13-week rolling cash flow forecasts
  • Scenario modelling (best, base, worst case)
  • Working capital optimisation
  • Early warning systems for cash shortfalls
  • Debtor and creditor management oversight

Growth Strategy + Planning

Finance that drives decisions

Strategy without numbers is just a wish list. We translate your growth ambitions into financial models, budgets and plans that actually work — so every major decision is backed by rigorous financial thinking and real commercial insight.

  • Annual budgets and financial plans
  • Revenue and profitability modelling
  • Pricing strategy and margin analysis
  • Headcount and cost structure planning
  • Capital allocation and investment decisions

Board + Investor Reporting

Reports that build confidence

Your board and investors need a clear financial narrative, not just spreadsheets. We prepare board packs and investor reports that tell the right story and position your business as one with its finances under control.

  • Monthly and quarterly board packs
  • Investor update reports
  • KPI dashboards and performance tracking
  • Financial narrative and commentary
  • Capital raising materials and data rooms

AI-Powered Automation

Your finance function on autopilot

Manual financial processes are costing your business time, money and accuracy. We design and build AI-powered financial systems that automate your reporting, forecasting and workflows — so your team spends less time on the numbers and more time on the business.

  • Automated financial dashboards
  • AI-generated board packs and reports
  • Cash flow forecasting automation
  • Finance workflow and approval automation
  • System integration and finance stack builds

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know before getting started.

What is a Fractional CFO?
A Fractional CFO is a senior finance executive who works part-time or on retainer — giving you CFO-level strategy without the full-time cost.
How is CFO Alchemy different from an accountant?
Accountants look backwards. We look forwards. We focus on strategy, growth and decisions — not just compliance.
How much does it cost?
Our engagements start from $2,750/month for our Essentials package. Book a free call and we'll recommend the right option for your business and budget.
How quickly can you start?
Fast. Most clients are up and running within 2 weeks of our first call — we keep onboarding simple and low-friction.
Do you work with businesses outside Australia?
Yes — we work with businesses across Australia and internationally. Since our entire service is delivered remotely, geography is never a limitation.
Do I have to take both services together?
Not at all. The fractional CFO and AI automation services are completely independent — take one, the other, or both. We'll recommend what makes sense for your business.
Is there a lock-in contract?
We don't do lock-in contracts. Engagements run month-to-month, and if you ever need to step back, a simple 30-day notice is all we ask.

Flexible by design.

Every CFO Alchemy engagement is tailored to your specific needs, stage and budget. These are our most popular starting points.

All engagements are month-to-month. No lock-in contracts. No long-term commitments.
