Resource Bridge is a specialist CFO executive search firm based in Mumbai. If you need to hire a CFO, Group CFO or critical finance leader, our CFO Practice runs a retained, research-led search backed by one of the deepest CFO networks in India.
We are among the strongest firms in CFO search in India. In Q2 FY23, for example, we enabled 3 of the 5 external CFO hires among ET500 firms. At any time we are running at least 2 to 3 CFO searches. Every year, inside and outside of mandates, we are in touch with 1,000+ CFOs and assess nearly 500 in depth. In short, if you are looking to hire a CFO, we are well positioned to partner with you.
Unlike generalist CFO recruiting firms that fill many functions, Resource Bridge works on only two practices: CFO search and CEO search. That specialisation means faster access to passive finance leaders and sharper judgment on who will succeed in your business.
CFO searches typically run 8 to 14 weeks from kickoff to offer acceptance.
Our CFO Practice publishes the quarterly CFO Movement Index tracking CFO transitions across Indian industries, a CFO compensation benchmarking report, and the free CFO compensation calculator. Browse all insights.
A retained CFO search typically takes 8 to 14 weeks from kickoff to offer acceptance, depending on the role's scope (for example fundraising, M&A or listed-company reporting), industry and company scale.
A CFO typically owns financial strategy, reporting and performance for a single business or entity. A Group CFO operates across a multi-business or multi-entity group, overseeing capital allocation, treasury and M&A, and often leading a team of business CFOs.
Look for CFO-specific specialisation over generalist breadth, a track record on comparable CFO mandates, depth of market mapping, clarity on process and timelines, and strong confidentiality practices. A specialist CFO search firm should come to the first meeting with informed questions about your business, not just a database of names.
CFO compensation varies widely by industry, company size and ownership. You can benchmark current market pay using Resource Bridge's free CFO compensation calculator.
Retained search firms in India typically charge a percentage of the placed candidate's first-year compensation, billed in instalments. Resource Bridge quotes each CFO mandate individually. Contact us for a quote.
Yes. CFO searches, especially replacements, are run discreetly. Resource Bridge publishes past mandates without client or candidate names.
