ABOUT RACHEL GUTTENBERG

I’m a CPA and MBA with more than 25 years of experience helping large, complex organizations recover lost value, strengthen financial controls, and improve the effectiveness of their finance and shared services operations.Throughout my career, I’ve led recovery audit programs for organizations ranging from mid-sized companies to Fortune 500 enterprises across industries including technology, manufacturing, healthcare, banking, and consumer food & beverage sectors. While the recoveries themselves were meaningful, what consistently stood out was a larger opportunity; most organizations were capable of identifying this value internally, but lacked the structure, process, and experience to do so sustainably.That insight led me to create Bottomline Recovery & Consulting.Today, I work as a fractional recovery consultant, partnering with finance, accounts payable, procurement, and shared services leaders to build disciplined, in-house recovery capabilities that reduce financial leakage, protect vendor relationships, and deliver measurable, repeatable bottom-line impact.My approach is practical, collaborative, and enablement-focused:• I work directly with internal teams• I prioritize knowledge transfer over dependency• I help organizations retain full ownership of the value they createFor leaders rethinking their reliance on commission-based recovery models, or looking to strengthen controls, transparency, and cross-functional alignment, my goal is simple: help you build an internal recovery function that delivers year-over-year results with confidence.Elevate your Bottom Line with Confidence.
