As Get Air prepared for its next phase of expansion, the founders and executive team realized the importance of appointing a CFO who could drive financial strategy and support long-term growth. However, this was a particularly sensitive search, as the current CFO had been instrumental in the company’s success. Confidentiality was essential to protect both the organization and the individuals involved.
Without prior experience in running an executive-level finance search, Get Air needed a recruitment partner they could trust to handle the process discreetly and effectively. Co-Founder Alan McEwen reflected on this challenge:
“At the start of the process, we weren’t sure what to expect, having never gone through a CFO search before.”
CFO Recruit’s role was to manage every aspect of the search process with care, precision, and discretion, ensuring the best possible outcome without compromising confidentiality.
"The experience could not have gone more smoothly. CFO Recruit guided us clearly through each stage and consistently exceeded our expectations.”
