Finance & Accounting Advisory
Fractional and interim controller support that runs your finance function day to day and builds the planning tools leadership needs to grow.
Most growing businesses reach a point where the bookkeeping gets done but nobody owns the numbers. The close takes too long, reports arrive late, and leadership makes decisions on figures they only half trust. Bassetti Consulting steps into the controller seat, fractionally or on an interim basis, and takes ownership of the close, the reporting, and cash.
With the fundamentals stable, the work turns forward: budgets built with the people who own them, cash flow forecasts you can act on, KPIs that reflect how the business actually runs, and financial planning and analysis that connects operating decisions to financial results. For emerging-growth companies, that includes setting up the finance function so it scales with the business rather than behind it.
Every engagement is delivered by Rob Bassetti, CPA, drawing on more than 15 years as a controller inside growing businesses, working alongside your team rather than advising from outside.
Common questions
What does an interim controller do?
An interim controller fills the controller seat for a defined period, typically while a company hires, during a leave, or through a transition such as a sale or a system change. The role covers the monthly close, reporting, cash management, and internal controls, so the finance function keeps running without a gap.
How much time does a fractional controller engagement involve each month?
It depends on the size of the business and the state of the books. Ongoing engagements are scoped after an initial review of your close, reporting, and systems, then set at a recurring amount of time each month that can flex as needs change.
Can you build budgeting and FP&A from scratch?
Yes. Many clients have never had a formal budget or forecast. The work starts with a driver-based model tied to your actuals, a cash flow forecast, and a short set of KPIs, then a monthly rhythm for reviewing results against plan with leadership.
