You need a board-ready forecast by Friday. Your CFO just gave notice. The PE firm wants a Quality of Earnings done yesterday. You don't need a big firm with a slow ramp — you need someone who's done this before, can start now, and will leave your team stronger when the engagement ends.
These are the situations that typically bring companies to us. If you're navigating any of them, we can help.
We step into interim leadership roles and maintain reporting cadence, board preparation, and team management from day one — so the business doesn't miss a beat while you search for a permanent hire.
We prepare and defend Quality of Earnings analyses, build investor-ready data rooms, and manage the financial workstream of your deal — whether you're buying, selling, or raising capital.
We build the forecasting models, KPI dashboards, and planning cadences that give your leadership team confidence — not just numbers, but the narrative behind them.
We embed with your team to build the infrastructure that scales — automated reporting, integrated systems, documented processes — so your finance function grows with the business, not behind it.
Every engagement is scoped to a defined outcome. We don't sell hours — we solve problems.
Full-scope financial leadership during transitions. We manage your team, own the board deck, run the close, and keep stakeholders informed while you hire with confidence.
Quality of Earnings, sell-side financial packaging, data room preparation, and buyer Q&A management. We've supported nearly $1B in combined deal value.
From a blank spreadsheet to a board-ready planning function. We build your budget model, rolling forecast, variance reporting, and the monthly cadence to keep it current.
We connect your ERP, build automated dashboards in Tableau or Excel, and eliminate the manual work that's consuming your team's bandwidth every month-end.
Our goal isn't a long-term retainer. It's to solve the problem and hand you back a finance function that runs without us.
We start with a focused conversation — not a lengthy discovery phase. Within the first week, we map the gaps, define the deliverables, and agree on what "done" looks like.
We work inside your systems and alongside your team. Everything we build — models, reports, processes — is documented, tested, and designed for your people to own.
Before we leave, we train your team, hand off documentation, and make sure the next person — whether a new hire or your existing staff — can run everything from day one.
These are outcomes from real engagements — not projections.
Finance challenges look different in every sector. We bring relevant pattern recognition — not a generic playbook.
Control Group B was founded on a simple premise: growing companies deserve senior-level finance talent without the overhead of a big firm or the unpredictability of a staffing agency.
Our team brings direct experience from investment banking, PE-backed operations, aerospace program finance, and multi-entity FP&A management. We've sat in the seat — managing board reporting, defending Quality of Earnings analyses, building forecasting infrastructure from scratch — and we bring that perspective to every engagement.
We work best with companies in transition: a CFO departure, a pending transaction, a PE sponsor asking for better reporting, or a growth phase that's outpaced the current finance infrastructure. If that sounds like your situation, we should talk.
No pitch deck. No sales process. Just a conversation about what you're dealing with and whether we can help. Most engagements begin within two weeks of the first call.
