Outsourced CFO/Controller Services
The financial infrastructure of an in-house team, built around how your business actually operates.
Through outsourcing, a business can obtain access to experienced financial management — without the cost, time, or risk of hiring a full-time CFO/Controller. Neil Miller Consulting works as an extension of your business, handling the accounting function so ownership and leadership can focus on running the company.
This isn't a one-size-fits-all service. Every engagement is built around what a business already has in place and what it actually needs — some clients want a hands-on partner for a few hours a month, others need someone managing the finance function day to day.
What's Included
-
Financial Reporting & Statements — Accurate, timely financial statements that give you a clear read on where the business stands.
-
Month-End and Year-End Close — A clean, organized close every period, with year-end financials prepared and ready to hand off to your tax accountant.
-
Internal Controls — Processes that protect the business, reduce errors, and hold up under scrutiny from lenders, investors, or auditors.
-
Banking Relations & Audit Preparation — Support managing bank relationships and preparing for audits, so nothing catches the business off guard.
-
Cost-Saving Analysis — A regular look at where the business is spending, and where it doesn't need to be.
-
Cash Flow Monitoring — Ongoing visibility into cash position, so decisions get made with real numbers, not guesswork.
How It Works
There's no fixed template. Neil works on-site, remote, or a mix of both, depending on what fits the business. He'll work within your existing systems — QuickBooks or whatever you're already using — or recommend a change if the current setup is holding you back. The scope, cadence, and level of involvement are all shaped around the business, not a standard package.
Who Is This For
Neil works with small to mid-sized companies that have outgrown ad hoc accounting but aren't ready to build a full internal finance department — across industries including professional services, technology, nonprofits, and the arts. If your business needs financial management it can rely on, without adding full-time headcount, this is built for you.
