In fast-growing businesses, CFOs take on a wide range of responsibilities. Beyond traditional financial oversight, they are tasked with planning for long-term growth, securing investment, managing risk, and streamlining operations. This often involves managing multiple initiatives, including the selection and implementation of enterprise software.
Many high-growth companies choose NetSuite for its cost-effective, all-in-one platform that combines financials, CRM, and inventory management. Its scalability and flexibility allow it to grow alongside the business, adapting to increasing complexity. NetSuite’s real-time insights empower data-driven decisions, while its cloud-based infrastructure enables remote working. With multi-currency and multi-language support, it also simplifies international operations, making it ideal for companies expanding globally. Additionally, NetSuite can be a more streamlined and efficient alternative compared to larger, more complex ERP systems.
Tailoring NetSuite to align with the business specific processes often requires specialised expertise. To achieve this, CFOs turn to external consultancies to help with system adaptation, integration into existing operations, staff training, and ensuring the platform remains flexible as the business evolves. Managing this project is a substantial commitment, particularly when CFOs are also focused on broader strategic objectives.
Increasingly, CFOs are hiring interim NetSuite professionals to handle tasks ranging from initial setup and customisation to staff training and ongoing support. This relieves them of operational pressures while ensuring the system is optimised for the company’s needs.
These interim roles demand a unique skill set that combines financial expertise with technical business application knowledge and project management skills. These specialists manage the technical aspects of implementation and serve as a link between the CFO and third-party consultants, allowing the CFO to concentrate on long-term strategic goals.
