When I was hired 18 months ago as CFO for a 146-year-old Senior Living organization, I was met with a Finance Department of 2 staff. The previous CFO had resigned 6 months earlier, followed by the Controller 2 months later. All that remained were a Senior Accountant and the A/P Specialist. The first thing that I had to do was hire and train competent staff. As we limped along, we were successful in hiring a solid accountant, but then the Senior Accountant abruptly resigned. With the realization that we had to do something more than advertise, recruit and hire a solid team, I turned to Hiren and his Team who had been providing temporary support to us as we struggled through the annual Financial Audit. Rather than hire additional office-based staff, we contracted with Hiren and his Team to provide permanent support to our organization.

We have been working together seamlessly for almost a year now, and even though we work from separate sides of the globe, we close the books more quickly, accurately and I now have the support I need to fulfill my responsibilities as the CFO. We contract for 1 full FTE, and Hiren supports our needs with other members of his firm on an as-needed basis. In addition to being exceptional accountants committed to delivering quality work on time, they are also very dependable, professional and have come to be seen as just another part of our organization’s Team. I have no intention of changing this unique and hybrid Finance Team by hiring full-time staff to replace Hiren and his Team.

If you need to put together a full-time Finance Team, or even if you just need temporary additional Finance and Accounting support for your already solid Team, I would highly recommend that you speak with Hiren first. I am confident that they can not only meet your needs but exceed them.
