Giovanni is a detail-oriented yet strategic-thinking finance professional. He quickly grasps complex topics and implements best practices across the finance function.
Giovanni has been instrumental in managing cash and handling comprehensive reporting for our funds. His guidance and expertise have allowed us to focus on growing our portfolio while knowing that our financial processes are securely managed.
Gio has been a great partner to work with, his experience shows in the work product he delivers and the advice he gives. I’ve appreciated his flexibility and patience working around my timeline to launch. He has been a tremendous help during the early stages, from providing consultation on my fund admin agreement to helping establish my management company books.
Retaining Cipriano Consulting has been critical to our business success. Led by Gio, his organization seamlessly integrated into our team and quickly became an essential member. His flexibility to scale up as needed, strong organizational and technical skills, combined with his easy to work with nature and personalized approach, allow him to efficiently drive processes forward and adapt to the evolving needs of our Funds.
We engaged Gio to help transition between controllers. We initially hesitated with the thought of training someone for a short period of service, but we are very happy we decided to bring him on. Gio picked everything up very quickly with very little training from our team, all he needed was to be pointed in the right direction. He was able to handle our monthly close and all of our monthly reporting in his first month. His level of experience showed as he was able to question things that needed to be questioned, which gave us more confidence that he could work independently. With Gio on the team, we were able to take our time in hiring a new controller, ultimately leading to a great hire. Gio left us with very good recommendations for improvements. I will certainly give Gio a call the next time we need some help.
