Li Ling Ho

As a COO/CFO, I bridge the gap between vision and execution, whilst wearing both operational and financial hats. I also act as a trusted advisor to founders, offering support and insights for wholistic decision-making.

I specialise in helping early-stage ventures lay strong operational and financial foundations - from organisational design, systems, staffing, and scalable processes to cashflow, forecasting, revenue models, and building financial sustainability.

My leadership style is practical, values-aligned, and built on experience across both commercial and impact sectors, including founding roles and scaling purpose-driven organisations.

I support founders by creating the clarity and structure needed to make informed, sustainable growth decisions.

An integrated COO/CFO role that offers a unique blend of operational excellence and financial acumen:

• Operational Leadership: Oversees daily operations, ensuring efficiency and effectiveness across departments.
• Strategy Implementation: Translates strategic vision into operational and financial plans and executes them.
• Team Management: Leads cross-functional teams, fostering collaboration and accountability, whilst being mindful of founder and team well-being and development.
