A private-equity backed healthcare distributor in Southern Europe was expanding rapidly through acquisitions but lacked mature finance integration. The interim CFO stepped in for four months to stabilize the function: implemented a rolling 13-week cash-flow model, streamlined subsidiary consolidation, standardized KPIs, and coached internal talent. Reporting cycle dropped from 12 to 7 days, forecast accuracy improved by ~25%, two acquisitions were supported, and a permanent CFO was successfully appointed.
