Financial Officer Search

Searches are not transactions. They are opportunities for lasting impact. Ormsby Park is a national retained executive search firm focused exclusively on the Financial Officer Market—CFOs, Treasurers, CAOs, Heads of Tax, IR, FP&A and Financial Operations. We differentiate ourselves in two key ways: by nurturing deep, long-term relationships with exceptional financial talent and by our strong belief that a diverse and inclusive workforce will help us all achieve better results.

Our DNA

  • Integrity is our bedrock. We choose our team members based on their reputation for impeccable ethics and transparency. Our clients know we operate with the highest standards of personal and professional conduct—always keeping their interest front and center.

  • Executive searches can be hard. Success requires real tenacity to stay positive and creative to the finish line. Whether it’s days to close, solving a difficult challenge for a client, or landing a candidate who seemed out of reach, our commitment does not wane until we close with a win.

  • We cut out the noise. Having focused for more than two decades on financial officer searches, we are able to distinguish exceptional finance talent. This experience, combined with our market-validated approach to assessment, enables us to present our clients with only the best candidates: leaders who will make a lasting impact.

Customized, high-touch approach

Our approach is simple.

  • We tailor our work based on the needs, timeline, and preferences of each client.

  • We only accept search engagements where we believe we will have a high likelihood of success.

  • We execute a limited number of assignments to ensure focus on each client.

A customized, multi-faceted research strategy is the foundation of every search, and we strive to align expectations at every phase of our work.

Our focus is on you.

There is nothing we take more seriously than our clients’ trust. We work with the utmost discretion and professionalism, and, no matter how challenging the mandate, we work tirelessly to achieve exceptional outcomes.
