FIRE (Finance, Risk & Economics) provides financial expertise to companies that undergo change.

Until our merger into FIRE, we worked solely with senior and executive interim professionals for Head of Finance and CFO roles. We are since expanding with an enthusiastic middle layer of ambitious future CFOs, who are in possession of an (applied) university degree (HBO/WO) and up to 6 years work experience.

We primarily work in technology industries and for companies that undergo change: think of fast growth, mergers, or (international) expansion. In such situations, control over the company’s finances is pivotal. We help our clients to validate their financial strategy and stay in control when their business changes. Call it finance when it really matters!

We are purely content-driven: at FIRE you will only find people who enjoy working in the field of finance and who can interact with our customers on the content level. All projects are monitored by FIRE and you will have an internal mentor to help you if and where needed. Working from our HQ (Haarlem) is an option if your client(s) and the situation allows.

Content and delivering results to our clients are key. We want to be proud of the projects we deliver and the staff we work with. Our goal for your career is to hire future CFO’s, so we can continue to work with you even after you leave FIRE some years from now.

We envision your career progression around three core elements: what you bring and who you are – this we cover during the selection process; what you learn working during projects at our clients; and lastly the training, coaching and support we provide you from FIRE during come-back days, dedicated expert sessions, and mentoring.

We provide you with the opportunity to gain a wealth of experience in a short time, both from working on interesting projects and by interacting with our senior staff- and network members.
