CFO & finance executive search
CFO recruiters for companies at an inflection point.
Finance executive search for CFOs, VPs of finance, controllers and FP&A leaders, matched to your stage: scaling, preparing for a transaction, or professionalizing the function.
Finance roles
The finance leaders we place.
Chief Financial Officer

VP of Finance
Operators who build forecasting, reporting and controls ahead of growth.
Controller
Corporate and plant controllers who close fast and get the numbers right.
FP&A leadership
Directors of FP&A who turn data into decisions for the CEO and board.
CFO search
Finance leaders for the next chapter.
Scaling, preparing for a transaction or professionalizing the function: we start with the CEO, board or sponsor, define the chapter, and recruit the CFO who can deliver it.
What makes a CFO search different
A CFO is hired for the next chapter of the business, not the last one. Before we source anyone we align with the CEO, board or sponsor on that chapter: a capital raise, an acquisition program, an ERP rollout, a turnaround, or an exit. That defines the profile, and it's why our CFO searches start with stakeholder interviews rather than a job description.
Industrial finance depth
Many of our finance searches are for manufacturers and engineering-led companies, where a CFO needs to understand plant economics, standard costing, inventory and capital projects as well as the balance sheet. Our partners have recruited in those environments for years.
Process
We follow the same four-step process on every search: Initiate, Identify, Qualify, Select, with a qualified slate in week three. See our process.
FAQ
Questions we hear most
We present a qualified slate in week three and move to finalist meetings from week four. Most CFO searches close within a few months.
Our focus is permanent finance leadership. If you need interim cover while the search runs, tell us and we'll advise on options.
