The finance function your growth has outgrown

There is a stage where spreadsheets and a bookkeeper stop being enough: cash forecasts that miss, pricing set by feel, margins nobody can explain by channel, and board or investor questions that take a week to answer. A fractional CFO closes that gap part-time — weekly cash and margin visibility, pricing and hiring decisions tested against numbers, and reporting your board or investors can trust. You get the judgement of a CFO who has done this before, at a cadence your revenue can support, without carrying a full-time executive salary.

For Canada, the work is shaped by the local market. Toronto, Vancouver, and Montreal carry most head-office and DTC demand, with Calgary and Ottawa close behind. Shoppers expect CAD pricing, clear duties-and-taxes messaging on cross-border orders, and shipping options from Canada Post and Purolator alongside UPS and FedEx Canada. Quebec shoppers expect a French-language path through storefront, checkout, and support — not an English page with a translate button. I am Omer Muneer Qazi, Fractional CFO with 15+ years of experience and 100+ projects delivered. Book a free discovery call and we will scope the engagement against your market, not a generic template.

What you get

Built for Canada

  • Cash flow and runway — a rolling 13-week cash forecast and runway view, updated weekly, so hiring and inventory decisions stop being guesses.
  • Unit economics by channel — margin, CAC payback, and contribution broken down by channel, product, and customer segment.
  • Pricing and margin work — pricing tested against real costs and elasticity, with discount and bundle rules that protect margin.
  • Board and investor reporting — a monthly pack your board or investors can read in ten minutes: cash, burn, runway, pipeline, and the decisions behind them.
  • Finance systems and close — chart of accounts, close calendar, and reporting tooling tightened so numbers arrive on time and reconcile.
  • Canadian operating rhythm — reporting in CAD, an Eastern/Pacific-friendly meeting cadence, and coordination with your Canadian accountant on tax and payroll questions — advice stays with them.
How it works

From kickoff to launch in Canada

  1. Finance diagnostic

    one free call plus a review of your current reports, cash position, and the decisions you are avoiding for lack of numbers.

  2. First 30 days: visibility

    cash forecast, margin view, and a reporting pack your leadership team actually reads.

  3. Monthly operating cadence

    forecast review, pricing and hiring decisions tested against numbers, and a board-ready pack.

  4. Handover or scale

    documented systems and a clear call on when a full-time hire makes sense — and when it does not.

FAQ

Questions, answered

How much time do you spend with us?
Typically one to two days a week, weighted toward month-end, board cycles, and decision points. The cadence is set in the first month and adjusted to your calendar, not a fixed retainer shape.
Do you replace our accountant or bookkeeper?
No — I work with them. They keep the books and file; I turn those books into forecasts, decisions, and reporting. If the books need fixing first, I will say so before anything else.
Can you help with fundraising?
Yes: investor-ready reporting, runway and use-of-funds modelling, and diligence preparation. I do not make introductions or promises about outcomes — the numbers do the talking.
What hours do you overlap with Canada?
Eastern Time mornings in Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal overlap with late afternoons in Dubai, which covers standups, reviews, and launch windows. Pacific Time work in Vancouver runs on agreed early windows plus structured async handoffs, so nothing waits overnight without a written update.
How do Canadian tax and privacy rules affect the work?
Where the build touches money or data, I configure for GST/HST plus provincial PST in BC and Saskatchewan and QST in Quebec, and I handle personal data in line with PIPEDA. Tax opinions and legal positions stay with your Canadian accountant or counsel — I implement what they confirm.
