We’re here for everyone who want to grow and deserve the highest level of financial expertise without needing it full-time in-house. The mission has always been clear: bring top-tier finance talent to the companies that are shaping tomorrow.
And if you really want to understand who we are and what drives us…
Here are the seven things you should know about Greyt.
The start – our journey started in 2012
Greyt was born out of a simple idea: Every growing company deserves access to top-tier financial expertise, but without the full-time cost. A clear mission: to provide ambitious scale-ups and SME entrepreneurs with the best CFOs in their industries. Built from the understanding that many growing companies face significant financial challenges during critical phases of their development. And that’s where we found our value. Where we’re growing towards? By 2030, we aim to be the go-to financial partner for international growth companies.
And how will we get there? By sticking to what we do best: working side-by-side with entrepreneurs, spotting financial pitfalls early, and building the right structures to help them scale with confidence. We bring clarity, calm, and expertise so that they can focus on building great companies.
Together, we turn ambition into progress. And with together we mean, the companies and the team. Curious about the faces behind Greyt?
We grew from good to Greyt
In just about 13 years, we’ve grown from a small team into a strong community of more than 65 Greyteers. We’ve anchored the base in our Rotterdam headquarters, where our Bace Camp is settled. This Base Camp is our management team and young professionals who support our CFOs and Controllers. Which is a network of highly experienced financials who each bring their own blend of expertise, insight, and sector knowledge.
What connects all of us? Our character.
Energetic. Proactive. Bold. And always one step ahead.
We spot opportunities early and, we know how to turn them into real results.
At Greyt, our team is a blend of seasoned CFOs & Controllers and driven professionals, all committed to helping businesses grow with clarity and confidence. Together, we combine deep industry knowledge with a hands-on, personal approach that drives sustainable success.

We’re a community. Not a group of freelancers
We’re often asked whether Greyt is “just a collection of independent CFOs.” The answer? Absolutely not. We’re a close-knit community of financial experts with a shared passion for helping businesses grow.
Our CFOs are experienced professionals with entrepreneurial drive people who love the freedom of building their own portfolio, but don’t want to do it alone. At Greyt, they get the best of both worlds: independence and the strength of a professional cooperative. We work together, support each other, and combine our expertise to deliver real impact for growing SMEs and scale-ups.
So, is Greyt a community of CFOs?
Yes, we believe success starts with a strong team. That’s why every CFO is connected to one of our regional circles: Rotterdam, Eindhoven, or Amsterdam. Each circle hosts internal gatherings, knowledge sessions, and meet-ups, ensuring everyone stays connected, learns from each other, and knows exactly whom to involve for any client challenge.
At our Rotterdam headquarters, the Base Camp team plays a key role in supporting this community. They ensure every CFO is onboarded in the same way, has access to the right tools, and feels part of something bigger. They also organise internal events and continuously gather feedback from the community. With the goal to help us grow, collaborate better, and strengthen Greyt as a whole.
