When Impossible Becomes Solved
Finding an experienced interim treasurer on short notice is tough anywhere. Finding one in Bogotá, Colombia, who fits the needs of a CFO managing business from the U.S.? That sounded impossible… until Pecunia got the call.
In January of this year, a US-based CFO needed urgent interim treasury management support in Colombia. Fortunately, one of the CFO’s friends was a fellow treasurer within our network. Although he didn’t have the right candidate on hand, the treasurer knew exactly where to turn. Naturally, Pecunia accepted the challenge.
Sourcing the Perfect Interim Treasury Match in Bogotá
Traditional recruiters would hit a wall. Bogotá’s experienced treasury talent pool is relatively small, and most well-qualified professionals are tied to long-term contracts. But not Pecunia – we thrive on solving the tough ones. Our talent hunt spanned continents, not just contacts. Some of our consultants from Europe were even willing to step in remotely, which was doable given a 6-hour time difference (especially for those who are not morning types).
But then we struck gold in Bogotá: the ideal candidate, with spot-on expertise, a seamless cultural fit, and right on budget.
Six months on, the interim treasury assignment was nearing completion, yet the client still hadn’t secured a permanent treasurer. They were very satisfied with our consultant’s performance, and so, they asked to convert the contract to a full-time hire.
From Interim Treasurer to Permanent Hire
He happily accepted. The role fit his skill set, the company culture resonated, and the financial package aligned. A win on every front. For any interim treasury consultant, an invitation to stay is the ultimate compliment.
At Pecunia, we make such transitions seamless: no penalties, no “conversion” fees, no handcuffs. Our philosophy is simple – keep clients satisfied, consultants fulfilled, and treasury operations running at peak efficiency.
