One thing I've learned from speaking with finance leaders is that you can have exceptional technical ability for FP&A, but if you can't develop, long-lasting and strategic relationships, you will fall behind. Having an exceptional business partner means: 1. Cross-function collaboration - Inter-departmental meetings with a purpose 2. Joint planning sessions - Supporting department heads with accurate forecasts 3. Integrated business planning - Aligned business strategy If you need a strategic advisor to take your finance function to the next level, hire a finance business partner. On this topic, I'm working with a Private Equity-backed SaaS business that is looking for a #2 to the CFO to take the lead on strategic initiatives. Alternatively, send me a message if you're thinking of hiring for your finance team. #FPandA #BusinessPartner #Growth

?? Looking for a top-notch FP&A candidate? Here's what hiring managers prioritize! In the fast-paced world of finance, hiring managers are on the lookout for candidates who bring more than just technical skills to the table. It's about a blend of analytical prowess, strategic thinking, and effective communication. Let's dive into the key skills that make a Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) candidate stand out. First and foremost, analytical skills are non-negotiable. Hiring managers seek individuals who can not only crunch numbers but also interpret them to provide actionable insights. This involves proficiency in financial modeling, forecasting, and variance analysis. But it's not just about the numbers; it's about what the numbers mean and how they can drive business decisions. Strategic thinking is another critical skill. FP&A professionals must understand the broader business context and align their analyses with the company's strategic goals. This requires a deep understanding of market trends, competitive landscapes, and internal business operations. The ability to foresee potential challenges and opportunities is invaluable. Communication skills cannot be overlooked. An FP&A candidate must be able to convey complex financial information in a clear and concise manner to stakeholders at all levels. This includes creating compelling presentations and reports that tell a story, not just present data. Effective communication ensures that insights lead to informed decision-making. At ZETA CONSULTING, we specialize in identifying and placing exceptional Finance and Accounting leaders for your portfolio companies. Our expertise ensures that you find candidates who not only meet but exceed these critical skill requirements. What skills do you think are essential for an FP&A role?

I turned $10k into one of the largest independent digital agencies. Now I have founded Fiscal Advocate, a tech-enabled finance & strategic planning company for professional service firms to efficiently make more money.
When it comes to hiring a fractional or full time CFO there are two things you should expect: 1) Operational Excellence: The 4 components of the finance department (taxes, capital markets, accounting and FO&A) should run smoothly. This entails having the right people, processes and technology to ensure that the finances are properly managed 2) Decision Making Insights; The other crucial component of the CFO is to ensure that the CEO has the right information as it relates to catch, profit margin and year over year revenue growth

I Partner With CEOs & CFOs To Deploy Top-Tier Interim Accounting and Finance Consultants Who Boost Profitability Via The Pinnacle Difference
Many people outside of accounting & finance think a Controller is just a Mini-CFO but that couldn't be further from the truth. The best way I can explain the difference is this... A Controller's primary focus is on the past and the immediate future. They're focused on preparing timely and accurate financials statements for senior leadership to make reliable decisions on. They're preparing these financials according to GAAP (typically) because this will give the most accurate representations of a company's financial health. CFOs primarily focus on the future (1-5 years out). They're taking those financial statements and applying assumptions to project future needs and performance of the business. They work with the CEO/president to take their vision of the business and turn it into a financial picture. They ask questions like... Do we have enough cash to fund operations? Should we make this acquisition? Are we going to hit our growth goals? Will it cost as much as we think it will to hit those growth goals? Can we afford to hire? How should we raise capital? CFOs are living in the future to project any obstacles or opportunities and then make decisions in the present to react accordingly. What are the other differences you might add between a Controller and a CFO? #accountingandfinance #controller #chieffinancialofficer #hiring

Fractional CFO & Finance l Expert financial leadership and support for impact and purpose driven Startups and SMEs l Going from 6 -> 7 figures or 7 -> 8 figures
3 个月Couldn't agree with this more and is something I always say. Financial modelling and FP&A goes well beyond technical ability and actually many of the best models are actually quite simple in technical terms. The ability to keep models simple comes from the above. It is forming relationships across the business, truly understanding the key drivers and impact of decisions as well as finding out exactly what questions the model needs to answer in order for the wider business to make informed decisions. FP&A is an Art, not a Science and as such confining it to technical capability removes all scope for Innovation and creativity.
