A CFO leads an organization’s financial strategy and helps executives make informed decisions.

Depending on the organization, the role may also oversee accounting, treasury, tax, procurement, or business operations.
Employers often seek extensive finance or accounting experience, a record of leadership, and the ability to connect financial insight to business priorities. A bachelor’s degree in finance, accounting, business, or a related field is common; many executives also hold an MBA, CPA, or other relevant credential.

CFO opportunities span technology, healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, retail, professional services, and other sectors. Titles and scope vary by company size: a CFO at a growing company may be closely involved in fundraising and day-to-day operations, while a CFO at a large enterprise may lead a broad finance organization and partner with the board on capital allocation and corporate strategy.
