Riyanna Gordon-Mark MBA CGMA

Business Finance & Accounting Consultant

I’m Riyanna, founder of My Finance Dept, and I help solo entrepreneurs and small business owners take control of their finances with expert-level support that’s strategic, approachable, and easy to understand.

With over a decade of accounting and finance experience, I currently serve as an Accounting Manager for a large, multi-location restaurant group. I began my career with world-class Big Four training at KPMG, and have since worked across hospitality, education, real estate, consumer products, and professional services - managing everything from budgeting and cash flow to audit prep, financial analysis, and team leadership.

Now, through My Finance Dept, I bring that corporate-level expertise to solo business owners who are at a critical growth stage - where doing everything alone is no longer sustainable.

If you’re a solo entrepreneur who's built something amazing and now needs to outsource your finance admin and operations to keep growing, I’m here to help. I become your remote finance department, handling the numbers so you can focus on what you do best.

My services include:

Bookkeeping – Weekly, accurate, and tailored to your operations

Financial Reporting – Clear monthly P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statements with plain-English insights

Cash Flow Management – Keep tabs on what’s coming in and going out, and stay ahead of surprises

Budgeting & Forecasting – Make confident plans with real data to back you up

Financial Systems & Processes – Build the structure your business needs to run smoothly

Strategic Financial Advisory – Turn financial data into actionable direction

Alongside my professional background, I hold an MBA, am a CGMA (Chartered Global Management Accountant), and have a Bachelor’s degree in Business. But what clients value most is my ability to explain financials in a way that’s clear, friendly, and totally free of jargon.

If you’ve outgrown the DIY stage and are ready to delegate your business finances to someone who understands both the numbers and your journey as a solo founder, My Finance Dept is built for you.

Let’s build your business with clarity, structure, and confidence - one financial decision at a time. Friendly communication and client relationships are at the heart of everything I do. I’m here not just to manage your books, but to be a trusted partner in your business journey.
