Core Values
About Me Angela Dagaris
Founder & Principal CFO
MBA | Blackbelt Six Sigma | CPA | Board Member
I help Australian SME founders transform financial chaos into commercial clarity—so they can scale profitably without burning out.
With 25+ years across CFO/COO/GM leadership, strategic advisory, and operational improvement, I’ve worked with businesses in retail, logistics, manufacturing, professional services, and technology to fix the P&L issues that create cashflow problems.
My approach is practical, data-driven, and action-oriented. I use industry benchmarking to cut through founder assumptions and CFO-level financial modelling to turn strategic decisions into measurable results.
I’m a proud mother of two, passionate about continuous improvement (both personally and professionally), and believe business growth should create freedom—not overwhelm.
Key Experience:
- Fractional CFO to 25+ Australian SMEs
- Board Treasurer and Board Member
- 25+ years CFO/COO leadership across multiple sectors
- Specialties: Profit optimisation, board governance, M&A advisory
- Embed initiatives to give a minimum 1 x ROI on investment
Capabilities
We fix today’s cashflow and profit problems while building the CFO-level financial leadership and governance capabilities you need to scale sustainably.
