What Is a Fractional Controller?

A fractional controller in Canada — senior oversight on your terms.

A fractional controller brings senior-level financial rigour to your business without the cost of a permanent hire. Positioned between your bookkeeping team and executive leadership, a fractional controller in Canada ensures your numbers are accurate, your reporting is reliable, and your financial processes meet a professional standard.

For businesses carrying a backlog, we also perform full month and year-end catch-up and cleanup — getting your books current and setting up the right processes before ongoing controllership begins. Learn more about CPA Canada’s financial reporting standards that guide our controllership work.

Also Available as an Interim Controller

Controller resigned, gone on leave, or stepped into a new role? We step in immediately — maintaining full continuity of your finance function, managing your team, and supporting reporting while you conduct your permanent search. Engagements run 3–12 months, available in-person, hybrid, or remote across Canada.

The Controller Gap
Your bookkeeper processes transactions. Your accountant handles tax. But without a controller, nobody is reviewing the work, enforcing policy, or ensuring your books are audit-ready.
What We Resolve
Unreliable month-end reporting, misclassified transactions, gaps in internal controls, and a bookkeeping team operating without senior oversight or escalation support.
Interim Coverage
When a controller departs unexpectedly, we provide immediate coverage — preserving continuity, supporting your team, and keeping reporting on track throughout your hiring process.

What’s Included

What your fractional controller will deliver.

Month & Year-End Catch-Up & Cleanup

Books behind? We perform a thorough catch-up and cleanup — reconciling accounts, correcting mispostings, and bringing your financials fully current before establishing a reliable close process.

Month-End Close Oversight

A structured, repeatable close process with journal entry review, account reconciliations, and timely financial statements your leadership team can actually rely on.

Internal Controls & Policy

Design and rollout of financial controls, approval workflows, signing authorities, and accounting policies that reduce risk and protect your business from costly errors.

Bookkeeping Team Leadership

Direct supervision, quality review, and mentorship of your bookkeeping staff — with professional bookkeeper support available during backlogs and high-volume periods.

Financial Statements & Reporting

Preparation and review of monthly, quarterly, and annual financial statements — clean, consistent, and ready for your external accountant, lender, or board of directors.

Interim Controller Coverage

Short or long-term interim coverage when your controller departs. We maintain full continuity of finance operations, team oversight, and reporting — available to start immediately.
