Free CFO Readiness Review
About

I do the work I write about.

Nrthlogic isn't an advisory brand built on frameworks. It's one CFO's practice — the same work I do inside a live, multi-office professional services group, offered to businesses that need it in fractional form.

I'm currently a senior finance leader inside a multi-office professional services group undergoing active M&A-led growth — structuring acquisitions, building the sources-and-uses and EV-to-equity bridge mechanics that sit behind every deal, and running the reporting that goes to the board.

Day to day that means earn-out structuring, completion accounts, net debt definitions, and the unglamorous close-acceleration work that decides whether a finance function can actually keep pace with a business that's growing through acquisition. It also means sitting across the table from CEOs — and understanding that most of what goes wrong in that relationship isn't a numbers problem. It's a trust and communication problem.

Nrthlogic exists because that combination — live deal experience plus a genuine focus on how the CEO–CFO relationship functions — is harder to find than it should be. Most fractional CFO offers are generalist. Mine is built around the specific, current mechanics of M&A-stage finance, because that's the work I do every week, not a case study from a decade ago.

M&A
Active deal structuring, live pipeline
Board
Regular board-level reporting & strategy
CEO ↔ CFO
Focused advisory on the relationship itself
"The best finance function is the one the CEO stops thinking about — because it's already handled."
— Steve, Founder, Nrthlogic

Who this is for

Nrthlogic is deliberately not for everyone. It works best in a specific set of situations.

Founders scaling past instinct

You've run the numbers yourself for years. That's no longer enough, and you know it.

CEOs mid-deal

You're structuring, raising, or acquiring, and need someone fluent in the mechanics on your side of the table.

Boards asking harder questions

Reporting needs to grow up, and the person delivering it needs to withstand scrutiny.

If that sounds like where you are —

The first conversation is a scoping call, not a sales pitch. I'll tell you directly if fractional support is the right fit.
