The Future CFO

Back to events
18 September 2019 08:00-10:00 Brand Exchange, 3 Birchin Lane, London EC3V 9BW

Future leaders in finance need to elevate different strengths. 

The role of the Chief Financial Officer has never been more critical to the success of professional services firms. 

Economic uncertainty, increased regulatory requirements, financial restatements, and increased investor scrutiny have forced them into the spotlight.

Today's CFOs face never-ending pressure to cut costs, grow revenue, integrate technology and ensure control.

About the event

In partnership with Arcadia Consulting, Ambition will be hosting a breakfast event for finance leaders from professional services, that aims to explore the future for finance leaders and how to adopt and adapt to the different leadership styles to truly own their seat at the boardroom table.

Key outcomes of the event:

  • Where are you today?

  • Where do you need to be in the future?

  • What’s getting in the way?

  • How to smooth the path to relevance and influence.

About the speaker

 

Darrell Burberry is a Consultant and an experienced Executive Coach and NLP Practitioner.

The breakfast event will be highly interactive and orientated towards networking with like-minded finance leaders who aspire to higher levels of influence for themselves and their organisations.

Join us on Wednesday 18th September, 8am - 10am at Brand Exchange, 3 Birchin Lane, London EC3V 9BW.

    ​Chris is a great agency recruiter. He is honest, polite and knowledgeable. We wouldn't normally use Ambition for our Transfer Pricing recruitment but since the quality of hiring has been so high we will be going forward.

    ​My experience working with Tas was outstanding. From our very first call, she was intentional and proactive in her approach, taking the time to truly understand what I was looking for. She listened carefully and suggested live roles that aligned perfectly with my criteria. Before my interview, Tas went above and beyond, answering all my questions, offering valuable insights, and thoroughly guiding me through the interview process. Her extra effort made me feel fully supported and prepared. Right up until I secured my role, Tas remained approachable, encouraging, and always available for a chat or advice. Her professionalism and genuine support made the entire process smooth and positive. ​

From our very first meeting, she took the time to really understand my background and career goals, and quickly identified opportunities that were a strong fit for my experience.​Throughout the process, she provided excellent guidance—helping me refine my CV, preparing me for interviews, and always making herself available to answer my questions or concerns. I especially appreciated that she proactively reached out to prospective employers to gather feedback after my interviews, which helped me improve and stay confident along the way.​Her support was instrumental in helping me secure my new role, and I’m very grateful for her professionalism, responsiveness, and encouragement throughout the entire journey.​Once again, Thank you for helping me secure a role at Azets.

    ​Matthew and the team at Ambition are highly experienced recruitment professionals with an excellent network of senior BD contacts.  We worked with them to appoint a new BD Director.  I was impressed by their understanding of the role and the market.  Matthew was extremely responsive, producing a very high quality shortlist and an excellent service to both us and the candidates.  He was invested in finding the right candidate for the role and the firm and I would have no hesitation in recommending him and look forward to continuing to work with the team.
