Most accountants look at your financial past. I focus on your financial future - helping you make informed, strategic decisions about what's next for your business. I’ve worked across both service and product-based businesses - including education, fitness, manufacturing, retail, and e-commerce - typically in companies doing up to $20M in revenue. This is usually the stage where things start to feel messy-too complex for basic bookkeeping, but without the structure needed to grow smoothly. If decisions are based on gut feeling or just checking the bank balance, it usually means the financial system isn’t fully built yet. I build and set up that system. 1. Strategic Finance & CFO Oversight I turn complex financial data into clear, executive-level insights that help founders solve the problems keeping them up at night: 2. 13-week cash flow forecasting: so you can move from uncertainty to clear visibility over your cash position. 3. Scenario modeling: so you can understand the financial impact of decisions like hiring, pricing changes, or expansion before you commit. 4. Unit economics & margin analysis: to clearly identify which parts of your business are profitable and which are draining cash. 5. Capital allocation: to help you decide how to best use debt, equity, and reinvested profits to improve returns. The outcome: I don’t just deliver pdf reports. I build a decision-making system. Instead of wondering where your cash went, you operate with structure, clarity, and control. Background: MBA from a leading London business school, with a focus on operational finance. My work goes beyond reporting-I build the financial structure that helps businesses scale. I have 10 years of professional experience, including Big 4 accounting and work in a consulting firm. I combine this technical finance background with a consulting approach, so I don’t just analyze numbers-I connect them with operations and business decisions. Many clients value this blend because it helps them see the business from different angles and understand what is really driving performance and growth. I also build finance systems + AI workflows (not just analysis).

Founders of fast-growing US and EU companies hire me when their business is scaling, but daily execution is falling apart. I build the rigid operational layer — OKRs, EOS frameworks, and AI workflows — so you can finally stop being the bottleneck. You're past the scrappy stage. The team is growing, the deals are coming — but somehow you're still the bottleneck. Priorities shift weekly. Your team waits for your input to move. You're spending Sundays firefighting instead of building. That's not a strategy problem. It's an operations problem. I'm Vasilii, an international Fractional COO with a Top Rated Plus track record on Upwork. I step into 7-figure startups and scaleups to build the operational architecture founders never had time to create: * Execution Rhythm: OKRs, weekly cadence, and clear ownership matrices. * Decision Systems: Autonomy in your org structure so the team moves fast without you in every meeting. * AI-Driven Operations: Identifying manual bottlenecks and integrating AI tools to cut overhead and speed up delivery. * Scalable Workflows: Processes that hold steady as you scale past 20, 50, or 100+ people. Why American and European founders trust me: * Western Management Standards: 95% of my portfolio consists of US, UK, and EU-based companies doing $500K–$5M. I operate entirely in your business culture and adapt to your time zones. * Proven ROI: Over $200K+ in verified earnings and a 100% Job Success Rate on this platform. Your investment is backed by real, audited execution. Engagement Options & Pricing: * Hourly Consultations: $99/hour Best for operational audits, short consultations, or ad-hoc tasks (under 5 hours/week). * Starter Fractional Package: $750/week (Up to 10 hours/week) Perfect for early-stage teams that need structured operational support and basic framework setup. * Scale Fractional Package: $1,250/week (Up to 20 hours/week) My most popular option. Designed for growing companies that need consistent operational leadership, execution tracking, and team management. Engagements are typically 3–6 months, part-time. No full-time overhead, no long onboarding — just rapid operational traction. If your company is doing $500K–$10M and you feel stuck in execution mode — let's talk. 👉 Click the "Invite to Job" button in the top right, and let’s schedule a brief 15-minute alignment call.
