of Creative Community

The Chief Financial Officer (CFO) should be an analytical thinker and strategic executor. The CFO is responsible for oversight of all financial projections and planning, modeling, cash management, and risk management processes within the organization. In addition, the ideal CFO will be responsible for payroll and payment processing, reviewing and approving all department budgets, forecasting economic trends, and managing fiscal policies and guidelines throughout the company.
