Operating experience
A builder for the stage between basic accounting and a full finance organization.
Paul has worked alongside founders, CEOs, operating teams, boards, investors, lenders, auditors, and tax advisors. His work spans the entire finance function—from getting the close and reporting under control to creating forecasts, preparing for fundraising, integrating acquisitions, and helping leadership teams make major decisions with better information.
That breadth matters because the accounting foundation, the operating plan, and the strategic decisions are connected. McClure CFO helps clients strengthen all three in the right sequence, at the level the business needs now.
