Senior expertise, thoughtfully scaled
Clients needed seasoned financial leadership without necessarily building the same capability in-house.
About Maven
Expertise earned through experience. Trust earned over time.
Maven Strategic Solutions was built around a simple idea: provide sophisticated financial and regulatory expertise while becoming a true extension of each client's team.
An unexpected beginning
A firm that began by listening to the market.
After relocating his family to South Florida in 2003 to lead a subsidiary of a publicly held company, Steven Singer began exploring his next professional chapter. Conversations with former colleagues revealed a clear need: businesses wanted experienced accounting, finance and FINOP leadership, but often on an outsourced basis.
What began with consulting engagements involving financial reporting, Sarbanes-Oxley matters and FINOP responsibilities soon became something larger. Former employers became early clients, referrals created new relationships, and by 2005 Maven Strategic Solutions had taken shape.
Relationships led to referrals
Maven expanded largely through the recommendations of clients and trusted professional partners.
Operate as part of the team
The firm's role grew beyond deliverables into ongoing judgment, accountability and proactive support.
Maven
The meaning behind the name
A trusted expert who shares what they know.
The name emerged from a conversation about Malcolm Gladwell's The Tipping Point and the role mavens play in connecting knowledge with the people who need it.
A maven is a trusted expert in a particular field—someone whose guidance reflects accumulated knowledge and who seeks to pass that knowledge on to others.
That definition captured the kind of firm Steven was building: knowledgeable, resourceful and collaborative. It also gave the professionals who joined the firm a fitting name of their own—the Mavens.
