Interim CFO or Permanent CFO - which on does your business really need?


Interim CFO or permanent CFO — which one does your business really need?

Go interim when:

– You’ve lost a CFO

– You're mid-deal or under investor pressure

– The FD’s overwhelmed

– You need quick wins and clean numbers — fast

Interims bring experience, pace, and clarity — without the long-term commitment.

Go permanent when:

– You’re ready to scale

– You want continuity

– You need someone to build a team, face the board, and drive strategy

Great CFOs become thought partners — they make founders better.

Still unsure? Many of our clients start with an interim to stabilise things, then bring in a permanent CFO once the business is ready to scale with confidence.

At Pitch Hill Partners, we help founders and investors make the right CFO call — for now and for what’s next. Message me if you’re weighing it up. No pitch. Just perspective.
