Egon Zehnder International’s Financial Officers Practice was conceived to further develop and share functional knowledge of the challenges and opportunities facing financial officers worldwide. Our mission is to maximize our ability to advise clients facing an increasingly sophisticated set of functional issues and to significantly improve the quality of our offering via:
- Better access to senior talent, greater speed of execution, seamless sharing and efficient dissemination of knowledge
- Ability to benchmark candidates across industries or geographies
- Detailed understanding of functional issues and major trends
Financial officers represent a major part of Egon Zehnder International’s activities and account for approximately 15% of our searches globally, 50% of which are generally searches for chief financial officers (CFOs). Our activities span a wide range of companies in all industries and regions of the world. We are leaders in cross-border searches for Fortune 500 companies, finding CFOs for private equity backed companies and transferring talent across regions, particularly towards developing countries.
Our practice is built on the skills of highly experienced consultants with expert, in-depth knowledge of the issues and challenges facing Financial Officers, as well as the ability to identify and attract the top financial officer talent in their respective markets.
