Project Management
Dedicated project leadership for finance initiatives, from accounting system implementations to process overhauls and reporting builds.
Finance projects tend to fail for a simple reason: they are added to the day job of a team that is already stretched. A dedicated project lead owns the plan, the timeline, the vendors, and the testing, so the initiative moves forward while the monthly work keeps getting done.
Typical projects include accounting system implementations and migrations, redesigning the close, audit-preparation programs, building reporting and KPI packages, and the finance workstream of an acquisition, a new entity, or a financing.
Because Rob has led these projects as a controller inside the business, the plans account for the details that derail them: data cleanup, cutover timing, parallel closes, and the training the team needs before go-live.
Common questions
What kinds of finance projects do you manage?
System implementations and migrations, month-end close redesigns, audit readiness programs, budgeting and reporting builds, policy and controls documentation, and the finance side of transactions such as acquisitions or new entities. If it touches the accounting function and has a start and an end, it fits.
Do you replace our team during a project?
No. Your team keeps ownership of the business. Rob provides the project leadership, coordinates vendors and stakeholders, and takes on the hands-on finance work the project requires, so your staff stay involved without being overloaded.
How do you scope a finance project?
It starts with a short discovery: current state, the outcome you need, constraints such as audit or reporting deadlines, and who needs to be involved. That produces a plan with phases, owners, and a timeline, plus a clear definition of done that everyone agrees to before work begins.
