Fractional & Interim CFO

Finance leadership for companies in motion — built over four decades.

I'm Brad Morgan. I've spent my career as a CFO and operator inside distribution, retail and contracting businesses — from the largest independent Pepsi distributor in the country to Ahold USA, where I led a program that delivered more than $500M in savings. Today I work as a fractional and interim CFO with founders and owners who need senior finance leadership without the full-time seat.
