CFO

Chief Financial Officers face huge challenges in today’s rapidly changing business landscape. The role of the CFO is more extensive and more complex than ever before. At the same time, the intensive monitoring of operating results by investors and shareholders has reached a new peak. Interpreting big data and understanding the consequences, globalisation and increasingly stringent regulations: these are all themes which have a huge impact on the financial aspect of multinationals. Non-listed companies also notice this influence. Risk, compliance and auditing have acquired greater significance. Accuracy and completeness are subject to high demands due to the need for transparency and communication speed. The importance of instant insight, accurate reporting and extreme agility influences the entire financial chain. The role of the CFO has seldom been more dynamic than in recent years.

A good CFO is characterised by vision, agility and the ability to connect. A passionate professional who possesses the right knowledge, skills and commitment. Because the difference between success and failure is determined by real leadership. We are convinced of that. As an executive search firm, we are keen to make an important contribution to finding the perfect person for the position of CFO.

Finding a CFO

The search for a CFO starts by knowing what direction the organisation wants to take today as well as tomorrow. It is then time to get to know the culture, people and organisation. This forms the basis for a crystal clear profile against which we assess candidates. We ensure a smooth start in the new position and continue to monitor the situation until long after the ideal candidate has started. We gain many insights from this process, which we do not keep to ourselves. We share our findings from years of experience with both clients and candidates. This helps us to continue achieving better results.
