What We Do

Embark is a new kind of financial advisory consulting firm. We’re here to make life easier for Finance and Accounting leaders. To solve their most complex problems with forward-thinking solutions. And we do that so CFOs, CAOs, and their teams can actually enjoy their lives.
Ultimately, our goal is to allow our busy clients to think less about work and more about what’s most important to them – families, mortgages, soccer practice, vacation, or whatever the case may be. And that’s why CFOs and CAOs love us.
We do this by finding the best and the brightest, those that love what they do, but want to work in an environment where relationship-building culture fuels everything we do. That’s an Embarker, and they’re the ones driving such immense value for our clients.
