Part Time CFO Services

What Part Time CFO Services does

Part Time CFO Services LLP is a privately held Canadian professional services firm, incorporated as an Ontario limited liability partnership and headquartered in Hamilton, Ontario. Founded in 2013, the firm delivers fractional Chief Financial Officer services, day-to-day accounting support, and specialized financial management to family-owned businesses, private enterprises, and not-for-profit organizations across southern and central Ontario. Its core offerings include CFO Services (financial oversight, cash flow and risk management), Accounting Services (scalable from bookkeeping to controller-level oversight), and the Perspective Financial Management for NFPs sub-brand, which serves not-for-profit organizations with budgets between $3 million and $15 million. Supporting service modules cover Business Strategy, Crisis Management, Financing and Cash Flow, Financial Oversight, Mergers and Acquisitions, and Risk Management.

The firm operates without a proprietary technology platform; its core delivery is human advisory delivered on-site alongside client teams. Team members are physically embedded with clients across multiple Ontario locations, including Peterborough, Cobourg, Durham, and Lindsay, rather than working from a traditional head office. The staff bench comprises CPAs, Financial Analysts, Data Analysts, Controllers, and CFOs, supplemented by a paid Internship and Co-Op program partnered with Laurier Accounting Association and Ontario Tech Accounting Association.

Commercially, the firm runs a sales-led go-to-market with direct outreach to entrepreneurs, owners, and NFP Executive Directors. Pricing is custom and quote-based, structured around multi-year engagements and tailored to client budget and required expertise level. Marketing is multi-channel, combining content (blog, webinars), organic social (LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, X), community involvement (Bears' Lair, Innovation Cluster, Peterborough Angels), and customer testimonial video. The firm obtained a Great Place to Work Certification in 2024 and is founder-led by President Darryl Goodall, with no disclosed external equity backing.
