    I’ve had the privilege of knowing Scott Zeitlan for more than 25 years, beginning when I worked for him at Dunkin’ Brands (now Inspire Brands). Scott was a highly respected Finance Director who went on to lead the Treasury Management Department, where I had the opportunity to experience his leadership firsthand. Scott is an exceptional combination of strong financial acumen, strategic thinking, and --most importantly-- outstanding people leadership. He is charismatic, supportive, and the kind of leader who always “has your back.” Throughout the years, Scott has remained both a trusted friend and a mentor, and I’ve watched him continue to grow and excel in significant financial and leadership roles across multiple industries. Any organization is strengthened by Scott’s presence. He brings not only deep expertise in financial planning and management but also the ability to inspire and elevate the teams he leads. I’m grateful for the impact he’s had on my career and proud to recommend him without reservation.

  • I had the privilege of working closely with Scott during his tenure as CFO for a large QSR franchise operation, and I can confidently say that his expertise, strategic vision, and leadership are unparalleled. His background and experience in the restaurant space is invaluable.   Scott has an exceptional ability to analyze complex financial situations, develop innovative solutions, and implement strategies that drive results and allows for company growth. His dedication to understanding the unique needs of a business and tailoring his approach accordingly is truly remarkable.  As a fractional CFO, I have no doubt that Scott will bring the same level of professionalism, insight, passion, commitment, and fiduciary responsibility to his clients. His ability to provide high-level financial guidance and strategic support will be a tremendous asset to any organization seeking to optimize their financial operations and achieve their goals. I strongly recommend any business in need of a trusted and experienced financial leader to partner with Scott.  I wholeheartedly believe that in order to be successful, you need to surround yourself with other successful people.  Only then will you be able to bring you organization to the next level.  Scott is EXACTLY who you want on your team.

  • Having worked with Scott for the past 8 years in his capacity as the CFO for a large QSR franchisee, I can confirm that he is the consummate professional. His reciprocal team approach enhanced many financing transactions while his attention to detail, financial acumen, and the ability to focus on the Bank’s needs in addition to that of his employer resulted in many seamless loan closings. Scott’s financial and managerial skill set will be a great addition to any organization, and I hope to work with him on many new endeavors in the years to come.
