Recruiting a CFO?
Recruiting the right CFO requires a clear understanding of what you need the individual to achieve. For some organisations, the priority will be improving financial controls and reporting, while others may need a commercially focused CFO to support rapid growth, investment, acquisition or an eventual exit.
Employers commonly look for professionally qualified accountants with ACA, ACCA or CIMA credentials alongside significant senior leadership experience.
Key areas of expertise can include financial strategy, budgeting and forecasting, cash-flow management, board reporting, commercial finance, mergers and acquisitions, fundraising and relationships with investors or lenders.
Company-size experience can be particularly important. A CFO who has successfully helped an SME scale can bring a very different skillset to someone whose career has primarily been within large corporate finance teams.
The strongest CFOs combine technical financial expertise with commercial judgement, leadership skills and the confidence to challenge and influence at board level.
