A Fractional CFO (also called Virtual CFO or Outsourced CFO) gives you senior, board-grade finance leadership on a part-time, fixed-fee basis. It's the right answer when your business needs CFO judgment — fundraising, board reporting, strategic planning, M&A, investor relations, scenario modeling — but the volume does not justify the cost of a full-time CFO — a median of about EGP 81,000 a month in Cairo, and SAR 60,000–95,000 / AED 55,000–85,000 in the Gulf, before benefits and overhead.

Axcell's fractional CFO service is led by founder Hazem Kassem — 25+ years in senior finance roles, CMA, ACCA-certified in IFRS and in business valuation, and AAOIFI-certified (CSAA) — supported by Axcell's accounting team.

Businesses with annual revenue between SAR 10M and SAR 250M facing a finance-leadership-shaped problem: fundraising, transaction, restructuring, scale-up, or board-readiness.

Founder-led companies where the founder is the de facto CFO and needs to redirect that time to growth, product, or sales.

Family businesses moving toward institutional governance, professional board, or generational handover.

You receive a senior named CFO — not a rotating team. The same person attends your board, knows your story, and is accountable for the output.

Working model: typically 1 strategy day + 1 reporting day + 1 stakeholder day per month, scaling up during high-intensity periods (fundraising, year-end).

Backed by Axcell's full bench: when you need a controller, an auditor, a tax specialist, or an ERP consultant for a project, the bench is one call away.
