What

a

 

Fractional CFO

does for your business.

A Fractional CFO provides part-time or interim CFO-level financial leadership — giving your business the strategic finance capability of a senior executive without the full-time salary, benefits, or overhead. Unlike a traditional CFO, a Fractional CFO works across multiple clients simultaneously, bringing a breadth of experience that a single full-time hire rarely matches. Through GigLink, your Fractional CFO is credential-verified, video-pitched, and manually reviewed before they ever appear in your shortlist. They integrate with your existing team and technology stack and deliver outcomes from day one.

Your CFO has resigned or is on leave and you need proven interim cover immediately.

You are scaling rapidly and the CEO is still managing the finances.

You need a finance leader but cannot justify or afford a full-time executive salary.

We needed a CFO for a Series A fundraise. GigLink had a shortlist of three verified candidates on our desks in 36 hours. The intro video feature was everything — we knew exactly who we were hiring before a single call.

Eight years freelancing and GigLink is the first platform that treats finance professionals with actual respect. My rates, my clients, my terms. Finally a platform that gets it.

Rachel L.

Our books were an absolute disaster. GigLink matched us with a Xero-certified bookkeeper in 48 hours. She sorted 18 months of chaos in two weeks. Worth every cent.

The transparency is what got me. I could see the hourly rate, credentials, and watch an intro video before I even sent a message. Hired same day. Best financial decision I've made for the business.

Tom W.

I joined GigLink as an expert six months ago and my billings have doubled. The brief system means I only go for work I actually want. No more awkward cold pitches to people who ghost you.

Nina K.

We run a 200-person business across three countries. GigLink found us a part-time Financial Controller with IFRS experience for a fraction of what a full-time hire would cost. Absolute no-brainer.

Chris R.
CEO, Manufacturing Group — Frankfurt
★★★★★

GigLink should exist in every industry. Post a brief, watch intro videos, pick your person. It's so obviously the right way to hire. Why did this take so long to exist?

Our CFO resigned six weeks before year-end. GigLink had an interim replacement on a call with us within 24 hours. Genuinely saved our year. I tell every founder I know about this platform.

Ben L.

Based in Johannesburg and I was convinced this kind of platform wouldn't work here. Wrong. Had a verified FP&A analyst matched to my brief within 48 hours. GigLink is genuinely global.

The paid trial feature is genius. We ran a 10-hour trial with our bookkeeper before committing. She was brilliant. Payment held in escrow the whole time — zero risk for us.

Three words: watch the videos. I hired our bookkeeper because her intro was so confident and clear. She's been with us 14 months now. Never going back to the old way of hiring.
