Locations
Vessel Advisors serves growing operating companies across the United States. Find fractional CFO and Controller services tailored to your metro's industries, growth dynamics, and finance leadership challenges.
Local market understanding. National delivery.
Vessel Advisors is a US-national fractional CFO and Controller firm. Our 80-person team is distributed across the country, with anchor offices in Irvine, Las Vegas, Nashville, and Louisville. We serve growing operating companies between $5M and $70M in revenue — virtually when that fits, in person when it matters, including private-equity-backed companies, M&A engagements, and businesses pursuing institutional capital or public paths.
Most fractional CFO firms either embed a single CFO in one metro or run a generalist marketplace with no industry depth. We do neither. We build a team — CFO, controller, accounting staff — under senior oversight, tailored to the industry the business operates in. The team works wherever the business does. The expertise is in the verticals where the business actually competes: construction contractors and service providers, professional and technical service firms, manufacturing and distribution, ecommerce, real estate and property development.

How We Work
What working with us looks like — regardless of geography.
Start with the Assessment
Many engagements begin with a Financial Discovery Assessment™ — a structured diagnostic of where your finance function stands and what it needs to support where the business is going. Same rigor whether we're working with a construction contractor in Las Vegas or a professional services firm in Dallas. The team assigned knows your industry.
Or come in with a defined scope
Some engagements arrive with the scope set — an interim CFO during a transition, M&A readiness, PE sponsor onboarding, a turnaround mandate, or specific transaction support. We work to whichever path fits.
Scope monthly, no contracts
After the Assessment or initial engagement, ongoing work is typically scoped monthly. Most engagements run 12 to 24 months. No long-term contracts. No mystery pricing.
