Excellent and Attentive Service - Truly Exceptional

Christine at CFO Recruit was far and away the best accounting and finance recruiter I have worked with in my 26 year career. She was very attentive to my needs as the prospective hire and to the employer as they had specific needs they were trying to fill. Christine stayed involved in the process from her initial screening interview with me all the way through the multiple levels of employer interviews and up to my first day on the job. I would highly recommend Christine to both employers and job seekers in the Accounting and Finance executive management space.

CFO recruit seminar

CFO recruit does a great job not just working with CFO's to find new roles, but also utilizes seasoned professionals in the financial world to mentor and provide meaningful educational opportunities that will help them excel in their new roles. Alex Sanford has been a great resource for me and I would highly recommend working with him and CFO Recruit.

Executive Search Done Right

Christine at CFO Recruit made my executive search experience exceptional. She was responsive, transparent throughout the process, and genuinely focused on finding the right fit for both me and the company—not just closing a placement. The fact that she called a week after my start date to check in says everything about her commitment to the people she works with.

Christine did a great job

Christine did a great job! She was communitive and her follow through was great. Prior to interviewing she took the time to let me know more details about what the company was looking for in the candidate beyond the job description which was very helpful. Because of Christine's efforts I felt very prepared when I interviewed.

DFO Search

Chris was extremely helpful throughout the experience. She conducted a very detailed intake conversation. She kept me posted on the short list of candidates. The list of candidates was a very close match with our needs. Our CEO was very complimentary towards Chris and CFO Recruit during the search process. I would highly recommend CFO Recruit and Chris.

Did the hard work to know the client's needs and the candidate's abilities

Christine and I connected through LinkedIn. I received an email from her highlighting the senior finance role at a a not-for-profit. We arranged a Zoom interview. Christine had clearly done her homework, knowing my background and skillset and how it might match with the client’s requirements. She was thorough in her questioning, always professional, and the conversation was always enjoyable. She had clear understanding of the finance role, its importance to the client, and how to tease out my skills to match. She arranged several rounds of interviews with Board members and Executive team members. She totally kept me in the loop thoughout, providing additional information and responding to my questions. And then one afternoon she called to say “You’re the one!!” Christine’s handling of the process from start to finish was enthusiastic, professional, and respectful – a delight to work with. She understood the needs of her client and the capabilities of her candidate and closed the deal. I would highly recommend her whether you are the client or the candidate.

How Recruiting Should Be

This was one of the most organized and engaging experience I have had with a recruiter.

The follow up during the process was constant and felt as if I had a true advocate working for me.

An exceptional experience from start to finish. They understood my background immediately, communicated clearly, and guided me through every step with professionalism and integrity. They don’t just place candidates — they match the right leaders with the right roles. Highly recommend for any senior finance professional or company seeking true CFO-level talent.

Chris develops strong relationships with candidates and the hiring company as she truly cares. She clearly understands the hiring company's needs and which candidates will match. She communicates clearly, clarifies expectations and "checks in" along the hiring process.

I wholeheartedly recommend Chris to help with your company's hiring.

I trust Christine

Working with Christine was very smooth. She stayed in top of communications, not letting time elapse to much between activities. She established my desired compensation range and the value I brought to the employer which was slightly higher than their original targeted range. She followed up with me multiple times after I started to confirm things were going well.

I trust Christine and would use her to recruit for me and would definitely seek her for any personal needs. I highly recommend.

CFO recruit was able to introduce several dozen excellent candidates that we would never have accessed otherwise. They prescreened down to about a dozen candidates, each surpassing my expectations. The process was easy, effective, and resulted in the hiring of the person we needed.

CFO Recruit is top notch

CFO Recruit is top notch, very professional and the best at what they do. We engaged them to help us find a new CFO for our company and could not have asked for things to go any smoother. Really enjoyed working with Christine and you could tell she really wanted to understand our needs so she could find us the best candidate for our company. Very happy with the results and would highly recommend to any company looking to hire for a financial leadership position.

Exceptional Experience with CFO Recruit

We had an outstanding experience working with CFO Recruit, especially with Christine. After parting ways with our finance executive, Christine helped us secure a fractional CFO who partnered closely with me to integrate two acquisitions during a six-month engagement. The arrangement was always meant to be short-term, and it delivered exactly what we needed.

When it came time to hire a full-time CFO, Christine once again guided us through the process and helped us find the right fit — someone who’s now been successfully leading our finance organization for nearly two years.

Every step of the way, the team at CFO Recruit was transparent, thorough, and communicative. They’re genuinely pleasant to work with and an absolute pleasure to do business with. I’ve referred them multiple times and would recommend them to anyone looking to hire a fractional or full-time finance executive.
