Controller, rising tide, CFO. All boats in the harbor rise.

The informal path. Controller, CFO, Construction

Why I worded it this way. My client needs a controller first. At $50M in construction project revenues they’ve never had a CFO but are secretly hoping to find a controller who could assume that role, - CFO.

If you wanted to add forecasting, cash flow planning, reporting, financing for developments, maybe some tax planning, presenting financials to the bank or shareholders. – this is the track to CFO in this company.

I see it as built in opportunity for a mid career controller, maybe currently limited by reporting layers above him/her, who could use this as a career changing opportunity.

Where companies are changing or growing, unusual and informal opportunities develop that you can’t really apply for. When it’s over, you’ve slid up one level in your professional life. A CFO of anything, no matter how small, keeps on moving up the financial responsibility ladder. It's a different lane.

I want your history to be in construction. Alternately, I'll consider a good story about why you're not in construction.

Connect with me, or send me your resume.

Thanks
