A Chief Financial Officer, for exactly as long as the numbers demand

A part-time CFO is a seasoned financial executive who provides strategic financial leadership to your business on a flexible basis. With Thailand's 20% corporate income tax, 7% VAT regime, TFRS reporting standards, and the structuring questions that come with the Foreign Business Act, BOI promotion, and the IBC regime, SMEs need CFO-level expertise to manage compliance, optimise cash flow, prepare for funding, and build financial systems that support growth - all without the overhead of a full-time executive that most businesses cannot justify.

A senior finance hire in Bangkok averages around THB 3.8m a year, and personal income tax on senior pay tops out at 35%, before you factor in Social Security Fund contributions and benefits. A permanent appointment that does not work out also carries statutory severance that scales to 300 days of wages at ten years of service and 400 days at twenty or more. Our part-time CFO services provide the same depth of expertise on a company-to-company basis, with flexible arrangements from 4 to 24 hours per week and none of that fixed exit cost.

Yes. Our part-time CFOs help Thai SMEs manage 20% corporate income tax and 7% VAT obligations, prepare transfer-pricing documentation, maintain TFRS-compliant records, and structure accounts to capture BOI or IBC benefits where they apply. We ensure your business claims input VAT correctly and avoids the penalties that can disproportionately affect SME cash flow.

Our part-time CFOs help Bangkok businesses with cash flow forecasting and management, financial planning and budgeting, investor-ready financial presentations, corporate tax and VAT planning, Foreign Business Act and BOI structuring, TFRS compliance, accounting system optimisation, financial controls implementation, KPI tracking and reporting, and strategic financial decision support.

Investment preparation requires professional financial documentation, realistic projections, and clean accounting systems. Our part-time CFOs create investor-ready financial models, establish proper financial controls, prepare due-diligence documentation, develop credible growth projections, and implement management reporting that meets the bar set by bank-backed funders such as SCB 10X and Krungsri Finnovate. We work directly with your potential investors and advisors throughout the funding process.

Consider a part-time CFO when your revenue is growing and financial complexity is outpacing your internal capacity, you are experiencing cash flow challenges, need support with Revenue Department and VAT compliance, are navigating Foreign Business Act structuring or a BOI application, are planning expansion or preparing for investment, require financial analysis for major decisions, or when financial management is consuming more than 20% of your time. The earlier you establish proper financial foundations, the smoother your growth becomes.

Bookkeepers and accountants handle transaction recording and compliance reporting. A part-time CFO provides strategic financial leadership - cash flow forecasting, financial planning, investor relations, tax strategy, risk management, and executive-level oversight. While bookkeepers tell you what happened, a CFO helps you plan what should happen and ensures you have the financial structure to get there.

Our part-time CFOs complement your existing team by providing strategic oversight and mentorship. They establish financial policies, review and improve processes, provide training on best practices, ensure compliance with Thai regulations including TFRS, corporate tax, and VAT requirements, and create reporting systems that give you clear visibility into business performance. Your existing team handles day-to-day transactions while the CFO focuses on strategy, compliance, and growth planning.
