Fahrenheit Finance Continues Growth; Announces New Hires
Fahrenheit Finance co-founders, Keith Middleton and Rich Reinecke, discuss the firm’s continued success and announce several additions to the firm’s client service team and internal staff.
Continued Market Expansion
“The firm continues to experience market expansion across all our service lines – consulting, fractional financial management and executive search services,” stated Keith Middleton. “We have become the “go to” firm for any company looking for CFO and controller expertise on a less than full time basis, as well as for the hiring of a full time finance executive. Our consulting practice continues to expand by successfully providing services to high growth, middle-market and larger public companies.”
- Fractional Financial Management – In the fractional segment, Fahrenheit Finance is adding new clients on a weekly basis. Serving early stage, high growth to middle-market companies, the firm provides expertise on a part-time basis that companies may not be able to afford or don’t need on a full time basis.
- Executive Search – In the executive search space, the firm has recently performed over a dozen successful middle-market CFO and controller searches, primarily on an exclusive basis. The firm is re-defining how high growth and middle-market companies find key talent that fit both the technical and cultural requirements of these typically unique organizations.
- Consulting and Project Support – The firm’s consulting business continues to see significant growth within the Richmond marketplace, as well as currently performing several engagements in multiple states. Fahrenheit Finance consulting focuses on and has internal expertise in: organizational strategy and structure, business performance management, process improvement, financial systems, internal controls/S-Ox, corporate card and e-payables solutions and financial recovery services.
Fahrenheit Finance’s Recent New Hires:
“As we experience ongoing and significant growth in our fractional financial management practice, we continue to hire experienced CFO’s, controllers and accounting managers to serve our growing client base,” said Rich Reinecke. “In addition, as we expand across all service lines we continue to add internal resources to support our delivery teams and clients.” Previously this year, Fahrenheit Finance announced six new hires to its consulting and fractional practices.
