What CFO Selections Does Well
CFO Selections is a finance and accounting executive search firm—they find, vet, and place full-time CFOs for companies that want to hire permanently. Their expertise is in matching businesses with CFO candidates for direct employment. Once the placement is made, their engagement ends. This model works well for companies committed to a full-time CFO hire who have the budget for permanent compensation (typically $200K-$400K+ annually plus benefits).
