A Finance Leader is an emblematic mover and shaker that helps all parts of a business perform better, by providing value-added insight, support and trust. The difference a good finance function makes to a business cannot be overstated. Finance has been at the heart of Page Executive from its foundation; it’s in our DNA. As the world adapts to remote and hybrid working, location has been redefined. Page Executive has positioned itself to help its clients wherever they, their clients, and their candidates may be. Our global presence, intense industry specialisation, local market insight and the bonds we form with our candidates mean that we don’t just deliver fast, we deliver smart, to match the long-term goals, values and expectations of both sides.Let’s take the role of the CFO as a prime example. It has exponentially evolved in recent years, to encompass responsibility for ESG within a company. We help shift the dial from back office book balancer to strategic, transformational leader at the helm of a successful business. Today's CFO is expected to be a well-rounded business & conscious leader, capable of leading multiple functions and being the catalyst for change and transformation. We identify these change-makers and match them with the clients, challenges and opportunities that will bring out the best in them.
