Business focus

EquityFD specialises in placing finance directors into individual, entrepreneurial companies where steady-state is never going to be an option. The businesses we work with cross sectors and locations but are united in their requirement for a strong, broadly skilled and tenacious FD to act as right hand man or woman to the CEO.

Most of these businesses are standalone, many with a degree of leverage and/or private equity backing. All have an agenda which is about taking action, managing cash, enhancing shareholder value, setting and achieving targets.

Our branding ensures that our message is clear. We only seek to source Finance Directors who positively seek and embrace profile and risk, want to put their head above the parapet and who are focused on a reward which reflects a balance between salary and participation in the success they help to create.

Whether a solution is permanent or interim (Equity Interim) and whether based in the UK or overseas we believe that our focus on a type of individual for a type of business, coupled with our considerable financial recruitment experience ensures that we find the best solution more efficiently and much more quickly. Our focus ensures that the candidates we deal with all have the key essentials namely: a balance of practical and financial skills, the appetite and desire to be the Finance Director (not just one of many accountants) and the commitment to drive the bottom line and grow a successful business.
