Testimonials

  • Arbolus

    “When we were introduced to Zanda we were at a place where we required c-suite level support for our strategic agenda, fundraising and growth plans. However, we only needed them for a few days a month, so we were thrilled to find out Zanda also provideS Fractional CFOs.

    The entire process from initial introduction to the first month with the CFO was very swift and stress free. Zanda provided a high-quality selection of Fractional CFOs and as an early stage startup, having the guidance and support from Zanda was extremely useful. We are delighted to now have on board an experienceD startup CFO, to elevate our strategic finance function and be a key developer of the current Head of Finance.”

  • “Zanda assisted us with the hire of an Interim Portfolio CFO and professionally and timely managed every step of the process. It was great to know that with their experience and network we would be provided with a carefully vetted individual. We were expanding into a new market and required support with building a model that would support us with a future fundraise when talking with our investors.

    Jane understood our industry and the startup ecosystem exceptionally which led to finding a great match that was affordable and effective.”

  • “As a pre-series A business we were unsure of the kind of finance support we required but after an initial conversation, we agreed that Fractional CFO support would be best for us at this stage.

    Andrew really took the time to understand our business values, culture and milestones we were hoping to hit and presented us with a few consultants that could help us analyse and elevate our business. As a busy Founder he really took the stress out of researching startup-specific profiles and provided us with a cost-effective arrangement that would enable us to grow. This service has given us the opportunity to experience exec-level support and consider evolving the relationship into a long-term partnership.”

    “We were recommended to use Zanda as we looked for a Fractional CFO to help us with a pending fundraise. We were looking for a strong CFO with HealthTech fundraising experience and we were provided with an excellent shortlist of options at speed.

    All of the shortlisted profiles were available immediately and had the relevant track record so it was actually a challenge to select the best fit. I am thankful that we now have an excellent CFO on board and would highly recommend Zanda to fellow founders.”
