Fractional Finance & Operations for Early-Stage Startups

Sean McQuillan


Hi there!

I’m Sean. I offer fractional Finance & Ops services to early-stage SaaS startups.

(Because why pay $150k+/yr for a full-time Finance & Ops person if you don't absolutely have to?)


My Ideal Client

  • SaaS startups anywhere from Pre-Seed through Series B

  • CEOs; CFOs; COOs; VP/Director of Finance, Operations, Sales, or Customer Success

  • You have either: 1) not hired a full-time Finance & Ops person yet, or 2) have a lean Finance & Ops team that you want to keep lean


Fractional Services
