Access the financial expertise your company needs to thrive.

When I joined AgBiome Innovations as the commercial director in 2013, Andrew was already on board as the CFO.  He proved to be a valuable asset in numerous ways during the next 6 years that I worked with him. He has excellent communication skills; always used clear concise messaging to my group regarding budgeting and financial requirements and results. Andrew is very knowledgeable of the financial reporting requirements for startups, and his interest in our business was very useful.  Andrew also assisted my team on a product and company acquisitions effort, as well as a multiple equity funding rounds.  My team was very comfortable in working with Andrew and had a tremendous amount of respect for him. Finally, Andrew makes people feel very comfortable in work situations which in turn makes them want to help him in any way possible.

We are incredibly grateful for the partnership we’ve had with Rankin McKenzie. Their expertise and support have been invaluable to us throughout our collaboration. In particular, working with Todd has been an absolute pleasure. Over the past few months, his contributions, especially during the due diligence and transition period, have been essential to our success. His professionalism, knowledge, and unwavering dedication made him an indispensable asset to our team. We can’t recommend him and Rankin McKenzie highly enough!

We brought in Todd to help keep our financial operations afloat as we had several team members leave all at once. He came in and helped stabilize our operations almost immediately while simultaneously helping us to hire replacements effectively. Todd positively impacted our finance operations, and we brought him back for a few different projects. Todd helped me feel comfortable about our financials and allowed me to focus more on operations and our customers. I would wholeheartedly work with Todd again and would recommend him highly.

Steve has headed our finance department for a better part of 5 years, guiding our company through our friends and family round, and then playing an instrumental role in our venture backed Series A financing and initial audit process. The structure that Steve created in our financial reporting made these events seamless. We look forward to our continued relationship with Steve as he guides us through our future growth to Series B and beyond. He’s also a fantastic team player and a pleasure to be around and work with. I would recommend him with the highest possible support, but I don’t want to share him!

We engaged Robert when we needed deeper financial insight and experienced guidance to move our business forward. A fractional CFO proved to be exactly the right fit.

From the outset, Robert took the time to understand our business and quickly made an impact. His thoughtful, deliberate approach led to clear, actionable recommendations, and he became a trusted member of our leadership team, contributing well beyond the finance function. His experience and insight shone throughout the engagement.

Most importantly, Robert helped us uncover a significant hidden issue in our financial health and guided us toward a path forward—something we will always be grateful for. He also developed our first-ever budget, immediately improving decision-making and increasing visibility into potential risks. Bringing on our Rankin McKenzie partner was an absolute game-changer for us.

Our company has been experiencing many changes and our RM Partner, Steve Weiner has helped us navigate these waters with grace. His flexibility and availability has been invaluable, and we always feel like a priority. It has been exciting working on the Cycle Labs launch with him, and we are looking forward to continuing our work with Steve post-launch.

I’ve had the fortune of working with Andrew at three different life science companies, all at different stages of growth, including during multiple complex equity and debt financings.  Andrew brings an ability to assess where an organization is currently situated, both financially and operationally, and the perspective of where the organization needs to improve in order to scale for growth.  He has demonstrated a solid ability to build strong teams while also being willing to roll-up his sleeves to get the work out.  I have greatly appreciated his knack for addressing potential challenges early and with well-researched solutions.  He has also demonstrated a high-level of stress tolerance and imparts a sense of calm to those around him.

When DHIC had a sudden opening for our Controller position, Betty Larose stepped in, took on the role with minimal guidance, and immediately proved how much of a self-starter she is with learning about our industry and nuances of tax credit and bond funding. She also took on some specialized reporting required by our funders, figured out the system on her own, and created a much better method for handling the process.  Betty fits in perfectly as a member of our small finance team of six, always having a pleasant attitude and ready to help in any area we need it.  Her work ethic is exceptional and that, combined with her experience and the quality of her work deliverables, makes Betty the perfect partner for our team.

Due to an unexpected medical situation, our CFO was going to miss 2 to 6 weeks of work – with little ability to communicate with us at all.  We contacted Rankin McKenzie and within a couple of days met with Angie, and she felt like a perfect fit.  She spent a few days with our CFO and quickly got up to speed.  It was a great comfort having her take over the day to day finances for a couple of months until our CFO was able to return to work full-time.

Beth is a fantastic partner! She is extremely responsive, intentional, and trustworthy. I refer clients to her because I know that she will be a valuable resource for them, even if the immediate opportunity is not a fit. She is a joy to work with!
