Why an Interim CFO May be Right for You w/Kristen McAlister
As we see more and more volatility in the financial world, more and more companies are being bought and sold.
And with the buying and selling of all of these companies comes the change of talent.
For a lot of financial professionals, it can feel like they’re a bit of an afterthought, getting traded around to company after company until, eventually, the decision is made to lay off a lot of those finance professionals.
On this week’s episode of CFO Weekly, we sit down with Kristen McAlister. Kristen is the Co-Owner and President of Cerius Interim Executive Services. Her firm specializes in contract, and contract-to-hire services for Directors, VPs, and C-suite finance positions.
Our conversation centered around:
- The difference between an interim CFO and a fractional CFO
- What firms are looking for when hiring an interim CFO
- How to best market yourself for your next opportunity as an interim CFO
- Why there is so much movement in the leadership space, specifically in the finance field
