PROVEN INTERIM CFO LEADERSHIP

Built for companies that can’t afford the wrong CFO

Interlochen Group provides senior interim CFO leadership for middle-market companies navigating critical financial transitions – including unexpected CFO departures, transactions, refinancing, financial distress, and rapid growth – bringing financial clarity when it matters most.

Built for Critical Financial Transitions

Middle-market companies don’t call Interlochen because they need an interim CFO. They call because they’re facing a situation that requires experienced financial leadership.

  • Unexpected CFO departure

  • Lender or covenant pressure

  • M&A, refinancing, or sale preparation

  • Rapid growth that has outpaced the finance team

  • Financial reporting challenges

  • Financial distress or business restructuring

Every engagement begins with understanding the situation – then matching the right CFO to the work ahead.

Three ways we serve companies in transition

Interim CFO Leadership

Part-time or full-time CFO coverage for transitions, distress, growth, and any situation that demands immediate senior financial leadership.

Project CFO

Defined-scope CFO engagement for a specific deliverable — a transaction, refinancing, audit prep, or post-acquisition integration project.

Strategic Advisory

Consultative conversations before the engagement begins — so the right structure is in place before pressure builds.

Whether you need immediate interim CFO leadership, project-based expertise, or strategic financial guidance before a critical transition, we match the right senior leader to your specific situation and timeline.

WHY INTERLOCHEN

Senior financial leadership shouldn’t feel like a gamble

Companies often face defining moments before they’re ready to make a permanent CFO decision. The wrong hire – or waiting too long – can increase risk.

Interlochen exists for these moments — placing senior CFOs who have been here before, understand what’s at stake, and deliver without a ramp-up period. Every engagement is focused on providing independent financial leadership that helps your business navigate the situation at hand.

HOW EVERY ENGAGEMENT IS STRUCTURED

A structured engagement that starts delivering immediately

Fast to deploy

No lengthy onboarding. We understand complex, dynamic situations and get up to speed quickly.

Senior only

Interlochen CFOs average nearly 30 years of C-level experience. No junior consultants. No experimentation on your most critical moments.

Clear scope. Clean exit.

Every engagement ends cleanly. No cross-selling, no pressure toward permanent placement, and no manufactured dependency once the work is done.

“Interlochen stepped in within two weeks of our CFO’s departure. They stabilized our reporting, managed our lender relationship, and gave us the financial clarity to make the right decisions under real pressure.”
