Our list of finance directors and finance managers for direct marketing.

Within any business, finance directors are among the most senior decision makers.

Finance directors (sometimes referred to as CFOs) are in charge of a wide variety of financial services and responsibilities for the businesses they work for. This often ranges from financial planning, managing risk and allocating funding, to accounting and reporting financial data.

A finance director will be responsible for business administration and maintaining the financial performance of their company.

Their main objectives will include purchasing anything for the finance department that improves their financial management and helps them to do their job faster and better.

This could include things like financial reporting software (to manage and monitor cash flow), or financial strategy and asset tracking apps.

Other finance professionals which have generated leads and sales from this data include:

  • finance recruitment consultants,
  • financial publishers, and
  • organisers of finance-related exhibitions.

Financial services are big business in the UK.

The job title “finance director” is more likely to be heard in UK companies – the job title “CFO” (chief financial officer) is more likely to be heard in North American companies.

In many companies, there may be more than one chief financial offers representing different areas of the business who are answerable to the ovaerall financial director.
