Board Pack Preparation · Agency

About this task

This content marketing agency for healthcare (5,000+ employees) is looking for a director Fractional CFO for a single piece of work with a fixed scope and a fixed price. Monthly or quarterly financial pack for directors: results, cash, KPIs and a short narrative.

The company has a deadline, no one free to own it, and wants a person who has done the same job before. It is an agency, so work is organised around client campaigns and approval rounds.

The work is fully remote. Any location in Italy works, with a few hours of overlap with the team's day. Evenings or weekends are fine, as long as the agreed weekly output is there. About 2 hours a week should overlap with the team's day (CET).

What you deliver

• Build the Q3 board pack from the trial balance: P&L against budget, cash bridge, runway, and three bullet commentary points per slide.
• A final note stating what was checked and what was left out of scope
• One round of edits after the company's review is included
• A 20-minute walkthrough call, or a recorded screen share if you prefer

How the work runs

• Day 1: scope confirmed in writing, files shared
• Middle of the period: draft shared for early feedback
• Last day: final version and handover note

Duration: 1 to 2 weeks. Accepted when the company contact confirms the deliverable against the written checklist. One round of edits is included.
