About Ben Belflower

Ben Belflower is a finance leader and fractional CFO specializing in multi-unit hospitality and seasonal businesses. He works with restaurant operators and growth-minded owners to strengthen cash visibility, improve forecasting discipline, and build financial structures that support sustainable expansion.

With more than a decade of experience overseeing complex, multi-location operations across multiple states, Ben has managed financial performance for portfolios exceeding $100 million in annual revenue. His background spans full P&L oversight, capital planning, labor analytics, contract modeling, and multi-site reporting consolidation. He has led forecasting initiatives that improved visibility and decision quality across distributed teams, supported long-term contract bids, and implemented structured cash flow systems for seasonal operators navigating volatile revenue cycles.

Ben’s work focuses on translating financial data into clear operating decisions. He partners closely with owners and general managers to improve contribution margin discipline, align labor productivity with demand, and strengthen liquidity management before growth capital is deployed. His approach emphasizes forward-looking visibility over historical reporting, helping operators anticipate pressure points before they surface in the bank account.

In addition to his advisory work, Ben has held senior finance leadership roles within complex hospitality environments that require balancing operational agility with financial rigor. His perspective is shaped by real-world execution across remote locations, high-season volatility, and decentralized management structures.

Through BelflowerCFO, he provides fractional CFO support to multi-site and seasonal operators seeking disciplined growth without the overhead of a full-time executive team.

Ben is based in the Phoenix metro area and works with operators across the United States.
