Executive Summary

John Wolfenden is Chief Financial Officer of ImageTrend, the Eagan, Minnesota company that builds software and AI tools for emergency medical services, fire departments, hospitals and other public safety organizations. He leads the company’s finance function and sits on its eight-person executive leadership team. ImageTrend describes him as a seasoned CFO of private-equity-owned SaaS businesses who has been CFO of several software companies, and who treats finance as a business partner to the rest of the organization rather than a back-office control function.

Career Highlights

  • Chief Financial Officer of ImageTrend, leading financial strategy and operations for a platform used by more than 11,000 agencies.
  • Member of ImageTrend’s executive leadership team alongside CEO Chris Cartrett.
  • Described by ImageTrend as having served as CFO of multiple software companies, with a record of strengthening financial operations and improving business processes.

Professional Journey

ImageTrend was founded in 1998 and has grown into a supplier of data and reporting software for first responders and the hospitals they hand patients over to. It serves more than 11,000 agencies across fire, EMS and hospital segments in the United States, Canada and the United Arab Emirates.

Wolfenden is the company’s Chief Financial Officer. ImageTrend’s own biography of him calls him “a seasoned PE-owned SaaS CFO” who takes a “roll-your-sleeves-up” approach. It says he sees finance as “the bedrock of any successful organization”, working as a business partner to every other team and running the Office of the CFO on commercial lines.

In July 2026 ImageTrend announced his acceptance into Forbes Finance Council. The announcement gives the fullest public account of his role: he leads the finance function, oversees financial strategy and operations, and is building the financial base for the company’s next stage of growth. It also says he has served as CFO of multiple software companies. The company did not name those employers, and they are not identified here.

His time as CFO has coincided with a leadership change at the top of ImageTrend. The July release quoted Joe Graw as Interim CEO, and the company had announced earlier that month that Chris Cartrett would join from Aderant as Chief Executive Officer in August 2026.
