Unlock Fractional CFO Excellence – Tailored for Your Growth

Imagine having a seasoned CFO on your team, but only pay for the days you need - 1, 2, or 3 days per week - offering you top-tier financial leadership without the full-time cost. With a fixed monthly retainer, you gain certainty and control over your investment, while accessing the deep expertise and expansive networks of the entire Greyt community.

The Value You Get:

CFO Expertise on Demand:
Whether you're navigating growth, scaling, or preparing for an exit,
I bring senior-level financial strategy without the recruitment hassle.

Fast Onboarding, Immediate Impact:
Hit the ground running with rapid integration into your team, driving results from day one.

Non-Dilutive Senior Experience:
Unlike equity-based incentives for full-time CFOs, my services keep your cap table intact.

Flexible Engagement:
Scale my involvement up or down based on your needs, ensuring you always have
the right financial leadership at every stage of your company’s journey.

Tailored CFO Match: Your business evolves, and so should your CFO.
At Greyt, we ensure you have the perfect CFO profile for your current and future needs.

Why I Stand Out:

In addition to the traditional CFO skill set, I’m deeply integrated with the latest in AI technology. I leverage AI to enhance decision-making, streamline processes, and provide you with insights that drive smarter business strategies. This AI-savvy approach ensures that you stay ahead of the curve, using cutting-edge tools to propel your company forward.

Who is

Richard Veffer

A few terms with which I would describe myself

Can do mentaliteit

Details are important, but sticking to it is a pitfall. I prefer: Fail fast, Learn, Move on!

Analytical

I love complex problems and like to deliver simple solutions

Love Technology

Technology delivers a large part of the value chain. So secure, user-friendly systems are a must

Scalability in everything

Tomorrow is a different world. Systems, processes and organisations need to adapt quickly

Eye for detail

It's easy to get ahead of yourself. Understanding the details and backgrounds is often very important

Value thinking

Everything costs money, and that's fine. But ultimately it's about the value that is created

Everything is a process

A company is a set of processes, executed by people and technology. End-to-end process design delivers order and control

Integration

Finance is not an island, but an integral part of all processes. This is the only way to enable the right analytics and deliver value based on data

Richard Veffer:

Author of the book The Scale-Up CFO

Who am I? Let's start with a principle I stand by: Right is right, even if no one is doing it. Wrong is still wrong, even if almost everyone is doing it. Integrity and principles matter.

My original ambition was to become a civil engineer, but life had other plans. Still, my love for technology, and for people who build beautiful and impressive things, whether it’s structures, software, or services, has never left me.

As a Fractional CFO and Partner at Greyt, I have the privilege of delivering top-tier financial leadership without the overhead of a full-time hire. That allows me and my colleagues to work with scale-ups and start-ups in their early and exciting stages, when senior finance expertise is crucial but rarely in the budget. Let’s be honest: in most growing companies, Finance is an afterthought, somewhere behind Product, Sales, and often even People. That may not be wise, but it’s the reality we often step into.

A good CFO complements the leadership team, spots risks before they become problems, and turns challenges into opportunities. My background spans Treasury, Tax, Corporate Finance, and Financial/Business Control, strengthened by a deep interest in IT, Cyber Security, and what truly drives people.

Helping ambitious professionals grow, coaching them to take ownership, break through (personal) barriers, and become the confident champions they can be. Whether it’s about technical finance skills, navigating high-stakes situations or shaking old habits, Growth comes from clarity, support, and the right challenge at the right moment. I focus on solving root causes, surfacing hidden risks, and building solid foundations for sustainable success.
To help other CFOs that find themselves maybe a bit overwhelmed after they join a Start-Up or Scale_Up, I have written a book that provides practical tips and insights to navigate through fast change and unexpected situations
