Cost-Effective Skills & Experience – On Demand
The Chief Financial Officer’s (CFO) role in a business is a vital one where they are primarily responsible for directing the company’s financial management, usually with a strong team of accountants and bookkeepers to support them.
They report to the CEO and the board of directors in large companies and are second to the CEO in most senior management structures. In large companies they often earn six-figure incomes with a generous package of benefits. So, they are certainly not humble bookkeepers.
Of course, they have a number of other responsibilities which fall into four broad headings:
- One of their most important tasks is to ensure the veracity and inclusiveness of the company’s business accounting information, which is the basis for the company’s Audited Financial Statements. The CFOs job requires sharing information with senior management in order that all decisions made are based on solid data which has been reviewed and analyzed.
- It’s the CFOs responsibility to provide accurate financial information to the CEO, the board of directors and top-level management. The information will include in-depth analysis and the potential impact on the company as well as any regulatory requirements of any decisions they make.
- One of the main areas a CFO is responsible for is compliance, which includes tax calculations and payments, mandatory government fiscal reports, public financial announcements and reports to shareholders. This is a very complex and critical area which takes up a large proportion of a CFOs time.
- At every level of management in a company, informed decisions can only be made if they are based on current financial information supplied by the CFO. The CFO has the responsibility of deciding who has access to the data in order to preserve the security of company financial data.
