What is a fractional?

A Fractional job is a professional role in which an expert provides part-time, high-level strategic or operational support to multiple companies instead of working full-time for a single employer. Fractional professionals typically work in leadership or specialized roles such as CFO, CMO, or CTO, offering their expertise to businesses that need experienced guidance but do not require or cannot afford a full-time executive. This model allows companies to access top-tier talent while maintaining flexibility and cost efficiency.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive in a fractional position?

To thrive as a Fractional professional (such as a Fractional CFO, CMO, or CTO), you need extensive experience and expertise in your functional area, usually demonstrated through years of leadership and advanced degrees or certifications. Familiarity with collaboration tools like Slack and Zoom, project management software, and specialized systems (e.g., ERP for finance, CRM for marketing) is crucial. Exceptional communication, adaptability, and the ability to quickly integrate with diverse teams help Fractionals stand out. These capabilities ensure that Fractional professionals can deliver high-impact results in dynamic, short-term engagements and leadership scenarios.

What does a typical work schedule look like for a fractional professional?

Fractional professionals usually work on a part-time or project basis with one or more organizations, often splitting their week between several clients. The schedule can be highly flexible, with work hours tailored to both the needs of the business and the professional’s availability, although some roles may require attending critical meetings or being available during specific business hours. This flexibility allows Fractional experts to maintain a healthy work-life balance, but it also requires strong time management. Candidates should be prepared to collaborate remotely with teams and quickly adapt to different business cultures and priorities.

Job description

Fractional Controller - Ascent CFO Solutions

What if your next role gave you real ownership of the accounting function, without being tied to one company full-time and flexibility to manage your own hours and schedule?

Ascent CFO Solutions is expanding our team of fractional Controllers: experienced accounting leaders who partner with startups, scale-ups, and PE-/VC-backed companies to build and run the financial infrastructure that lets them grow. You'll step into a portfolio of clients as a hands-on leader, doing the meaningful accounting work that keeps a company's books accurate, its close on time, and its leadership team informed.

The Role

As a Fractional Controller, you're not just closing the books, you're the person clients rely on to get the accounting function right. You'll tailor your approach to what each client actually needs, from cleaning up a messy general ledger to building out reporting a growing company can trust.

Your day-to-day will focus on:

  • Accounting Operations: Overseeing general ledger setup, account control, journal entries, and monthly close and reporting.
  • Reporting & Insight: Producing financial reporting packages, including dashboards and KPI reporting that leadership actually uses.
  • Payroll & Cash Management: Overseeing payroll processes, bank reconciliations, cash management, and intercompany accounts.
  • Audit & Compliance: Managing year-end audit engagements, researching and implementing new accounting pronouncements, and preparing debt compliance and bank reporting.
  • Consolidations: Preparing periodic consolidated financial statements, including all eliminating entries.

What You Bring to the Team

We're looking for experienced accounting professionals who can walk into a client's books, get organized fast, and run a clean, accurate close every time.

  • Track Record: 12+ years in Finance/Accounting, including at least 5 years in a leadership role.
  • Technical Strength: Strong understanding of GAAP and hands-on experience managing the full accounting cycle.
  • Industry Range: Experience across a range of industries - Technology, SaaS, Professional Services, Construction, Manufacturing, eCommerce, Healthcare, CPG, FinTech, Real Estate, and more.
  • Growth-Stage Experience: Proven experience with fast-growth companies, from early stage up to $50M+ in revenue.
  • Systems Fluency: Proficient with QBO and ERP systems (NetSuite, etc.), payroll/expense/bill pay systems (Gusto and similar), and advanced Excel.
  • Credentials: Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or Business Administration. CPA preferred.
  • Location: Must live in Colorado, Arizona, or Florida. This a remote role with some in-person meetings as needed & team events.

Why Ascent CFO Solutions?

We're a 15-year firm built specifically around fractional finance work, not a gig platform.

  • True Flexibility: Manage a portfolio of clients on a schedule that works for you.
  • A Built-in Pipeline: We bring the clients to you, backed by a team of CFOs, Controllers, and Accountants supporting your engagements.
  • A Real Community: Work alongside a network of finance professionals who share knowledge and solve problems together.
  • Recognized Growth: We're a 3x Inc. 5000 honoree and a Built In Best Places to Work winner.

Comp & Benefits

Ascent offers the stability of a W2 position with competitive benefits, not a 1099 consulting arrangement.

  • Compensation: $75–90/hour+, based on experience.
  • Health Coverage: Medical, Dental, and Vision insurance for employees averaging 25+ hours/week.
  • Retirement: 401(k) with company match.
  • Time Off: Paid sick time, holiday time, and volunteer time.
  • Culture: A collaborative remote environment with occasional, optional in-person team building.

Equal Opportunity Employer

Ascent CFO Solutions is proud to be an Equal Opportunity Employer. We're committed to a diverse, inclusive, and equitable environment for everyone on our team.
