Cool Careers in Accounting Ep. 32 - Turning Experience into Freedom: Becoming a Fractional CFO with Britt Clark

Thinking about leaving a traditional finance or accounting role? Britt Clark joins host Mike Potenza to explain how he went from earning his CPA a decade into his career to becoming a corporate controller to leading FP&A at Aflac—then making the leap into fractional CFO work. He breaks down how he landed his first clients, why relationships beat cold marketing, and how to set boundaries so the work doesn't become a 60-hour grind again. Britt also shares practical ways he uses AI to speed up analysis and communication while keeping human judgment in the driver's seat.
