The people who
own the outcomes.
Ansid CFOs are not advisors on the outside. They are embedded in your leadership cadence, backed by automation specialists and accounting professionals who keep the engine running every week. We do not offshore work.
Our accounting team supplements or takes over the accounting function where it makes business sense for the client. Where a capable team is already in place, we build the operating model around them.
Founder & Principal CFO
Atif founded Ansid after twenty-five years leading finance functions across technology, software, and business services companies. He built the model because he kept seeing the same problem: companies scaling fast with a finance function that was still running on spreadsheets and month-end reports.
The gap between what a CFO could deliver and what most companies were getting was too large to ignore.
Atif holds professional accounting designations from CPA Canada (CPA, CMA) and the Chartered Institute of Management Accountants UK (ACMA, CGMA). He has served on the advisory board for the AICPA-CIMA global start-up accelerator.
Consulting CFO
Owais has spent 14 years running finance functions across some of the most operationally complex environments you can find: multi-jurisdictional manufacturers, insurance operations, government contractors, and hospitality groups across Canada, the UK, and the Middle East.
His track record is in organizations where the finance function has to work perfectly even when the business is not.
Owais is a CPA with a master's in professional accounting from the University of London.
Consulting CFO
Shariq has served as CFO for companies across three countries and five sectors, with a particular strength in capital markets: raising debt and equity, managing lender relationships, and building the investor narrative that gets deals done.
He is the person you want in the room when the bank is asking questions.
A Chartered Accountant from the Institute of Chartered Accountants of England and Wales with over 10 years of CFO experience.
Consulting CFO
Rob has spent 20 years in the controllership and FP&A trenches of manufacturing and business services companies, both public and private.
His value is in complex, multi-site operations where cost allocation, capacity planning, and reporting structure matter. He has seen most of what can go wrong and knows how to fix it fast.
Analytics & Automation Consultant
Sourish builds the models that turn raw operational and financial data into the weekly dashboards and variance explanations Ansid clients rely on.
His background spans academic data science and applied industry analytics, with a focus on making complex data readable by people who need to make decisions with it, not analyze it.
Automation Consultant
Syed is the automation layer. He builds the close workflows, reconciliation scripts, and data normalization pipelines that let Ansid's finance operations run on schedule every week without manual intervention.
Nineteen years of application development means he has encountered most edge cases and has already solved them.
Client Accounting Associate
Madeeha has eight years of versatile accounting experience across multiple Canadian industries.
From day-to-day accounting to overall financial analysis, she has worked on many system and operational improvement projects, bringing consistency and accuracy to client accounting operations.
Client Accounting Associate
With a Bachelor's degree in Accounting and Finance, Aparna has extensive experience in full-cycle accounting and reporting.
She also brings over six years of financial writing experience, making her particularly effective at communicating complex finance and accounting concepts clearly to non-financial stakeholders.
This is the team that runs
your finance function.
Not a single fractional CFO with a Rolodex. A full operating team: CFOs, automation engineers, analytics specialists, and accountants, working together on the same model, every week.
