About this listen

This episode’s a bit different, I’m trying something new by bringing on not one, but two guests — Michael Spyrou and Tim Johnson, co-founders of Axcelera.

I’ve been really curious about how the role of the fractional CFO is evolving, and these two are right at the forefront. Axcelera is a group of CFOs with a fresh approach—combining strategic financial planning with smart tech to help growing businesses thrive.

Michael’s got over 20 years of finance experience across multiple countries and sectors. His focus? Helping SMEs get a grip on their numbers and make confident decisions. Tim’s background is in banking and entrepreneurship—he’s founded multiple businesses and even ran call centres in the Caribbean. Together, they’ve built something pretty special.

In this chat, we get into:

* Why the fractional CFO is so key for scaling businesses

* The importance of delivering insight, not just information

* How tech is transforming the finance function

* What founders really need from their CFO

If you’re running a business or advising one, this is well worth a listen.
