Short-Term Accounting Support
Because sometimes gaps happen — and structure still needs protecting.
Unexpected gaps can threaten momentum more than they should — especially when you're working hard to build something steady. That’s why I offer Temporary Coverage: limited, short-term support to protect accounting operations during critical transitions. If a key accounting team member leaves — or hasn’t yet been hired — I can step in through the Short-Term Accounting Support Project for up to 2 months, stabilizing the core financial structure while you find the right long-term fit.
This support is limited to two uses per client, with at least 3 months between activations, to preserve both momentum and system integrity. Please note: I only provide operational accounting support — not CFO leadership, cross-departmental roles, or broader operations functions.
Scope & Pricing
When critical gaps threaten accounting stability, this temporary support provides an operational bridge. It keeping financial operations moving until the right hire is in place.
This service is designed to stabilize critical accounting operations during staffing gaps — not full operational rebuilds or expansions. Broader requests may require scoping under the Ad-Hoc Retainer Project. Temporary Coverage is offered based on availability and subject to scheduling approval — on a first come, first served basis.
-
$5,000/month flat fee (up to 40 hours/month)
-
Designed for urgent coverage of operational accounting tasks (AP, AR, reconciliations, treasury, staff oversight, etc.)
-
Scope is focused on maintaining core workflows — not expanding systems, or taking on strategic leadership roles
-
Requests expected to exceed 40 hours/month will be scoped separately as flat-fee projects
-

Reminder
This is a temporary transition project — not an ongoing operational role.
If a request reflects recurring staffing or execution needs beyond the timeline listed above, I’ll recommend a different path.
