Outsourced CFO

As restaurant companies grow, the internal financial requirements grow exponentially.

RDS' Outsourced CFO Service is designed for emerging growth clients who seek the expertise of an in-house Chief Financial Officer but do not have the need or resources to hire one on a full-time basis.

On a part-time/consultancy basis, RDS oversees daily, weekly and monthly financial functions, as well as one-time and on-going activities that fall under the CFO umbrella. As each client's needs vary, RDS will customize a program to suit individual clients' needs and budget.
