Every fractional Chief Financial Officer role posted in the last 30 days. Stop hunting. Apply and get back to work.
A fractional CFO is a part-time Chief Financial Officer who provides strategic finance leadership beyond what a bookkeeper or controller can offer. Engagements typically run 10-15 hours per week per client, often with 2-4 clients at once. Scope covers financial modeling, cash flow management, fundraising support, board reporting, and accounting system oversight — the strategic finance work that determines whether a company makes the right hiring and spending decisions.
The fractional CFO category is the most established of any fractional exec role — CFOs were doing this before "fractional" had a name. 72% of CEOs plan to increase fractional usage through 2026, and the fractional workforce has doubled from 60,000 to 120,000 professionals since 2022. Most fractional CFO engagements are fully remote, 6-18 months in duration, with peaks around fundraising cycles (Series A prep, bridge rounds, annual budget).
Fractional CFO rates typically run $8,000-$18,000 per month per client in 2026. Fundraising-heavy engagements (Series A data rooms, financial modeling for a raise) command the top of the range because the work is compressed into 60-90 days. "Fractional CFO," "part-time CFO," and "outsourced CFO" are used interchangeably. Compare fractional rates to a full-time CFO at $200K-$350K plus equity — the economics favor fractional for any company under ~$15M ARR.
Most Fractional CFO engagements are remote. Because the work runs 10-15 hours per week across 2-4 clients, the model is built for distributed, async-friendly collaboration — the listings above include both fully remote and hybrid roles, so filter for the arrangement that fits your practice.
