Finance & accounting
A finance leader who has run the CFO seat before, stepping in to take ownership of your numbers for as long as the situation needs.
An interim CFO takes over the finance function for a defined period: after a sudden departure, through a transaction, or while the business outgrows its current setup. Unlike an advisor, an interim CFO sits inside the company, owns the numbers, and is accountable for what the finance function produces.
The interim CFOs on Hellenic Talent come from Big 4 firms, top consultancies, and senior industry finance roles. They know the realities of operating in Greece and Cyprus, from local reporting obligations to how banks, auditors, and boards here actually work.
What to test in the first conversation, whoever you end up hiring.
Operator, not advisor
Has operated in the CFO seat, not only advised it.
Been through this before
Has handled your situation before: a transaction, a turnaround, or a scale-up.
Local reporting and audit rules
Knows Greek and Cypriot reporting, tax, and audit requirements where your entity needs it.
Gets into the data
Is hands-on with systems and data, not only with board slides.
Fits your founder and board
Communicates in a way your founder, board, and team will actually work with.
A short call is enough to understand the situation and tell you honestly whether the network has the right interim CFO for it.
Engagements run remote, hybrid, or on-site, for clients in Greece, Cyprus, and the rest of the world.
