We have an extensive track record working with CEOs and Boards to ensure they have the best CFO or finance leaders for their businesses, and in turn with CFOs to build the right leadership teams to support their goals.
Because we have vast experience finding finance leadership talent across sectors, we understand how the core demands of financial officers vary by industry. Our clients range from the largest global public companies through to early stage, high growth private equity backed organizations.
Financial officers have a central role to play in revenue growth and cost management, as well as maintaining a robust control environment. Through our work with CFOs and CEOs we understand how, increasingly, financial officers are at the forefront of technology innovation, both helping companies revolutionize and implement digital offerings to make their own work more efficient.
Through the collaborative approach between our executive search and executive interim Finance teams, Leathwaite draws upon an enviable global network to support our clients, introducing them to the right people at the right time, whether the request be for a permanent or executive interim solution. We listen closely to our clients and adapt our approach to support the most sustainable solution, no matter what stage of journey our client is on.
To support this evolving role, our global financial officers practice tends to work across three key areas:
- Chief Financial Officers working at the group, business unit and regional level to support businesses achieve their goals
- Divisional leaders of core functions within finance including Finance Directors, Heads of Financial Control, and Financial Planning and Analysis
- Specialists leaders of key functions including Tax, Treasury and Investor Relations
