Are you saving money by not hiring a CFO?

A Chartered Professional Accountant with over 5 years qualifications is going to cost you over $100k annually. A CFO/Controller level with over 10 years experience is going to expect over $150k for such a role. The best candidates with true leadership abilities are likely wanting closer to $200k or more. These salaries do not include the book-keeping, tax expertise and other junior level tablestakes that are the necessaries in small and medium business.

So it’s no wonder a start-up often starts without a finance leader.

And it’s no wonder that small and medium business hesitate to hire a finance leader that is beyond their book-keeper and tax expert.

Are you saving money by not hiring a CFO? Well an annual salary of $100-200k+ probably is too much in the early days. It’s likely too high for many growing small and medium businesses too.
