ICAEW South West: FD and CFO insight group | 2025

Who should attend?

• Finance Directors or Chief Finance Officers within large UK and multi-national organisations, across all commercial sectors.
• Senior finance professionals with FD-level responsibility in small and medium-sized UK businesses, spanning all commercial sectors.
• Senior finance professionals below the main board or C-suite level transitioning into their first Finance Director or Chief Finance Officer role.

Our Finance Director and Chief Finance Officer insight group convenes virtually, providing a platform to connect with a network of fellow senior professionals across the South West region.

Why should I attend?

All sessions are confidential, offering participants the opportunity for open discussion, seeking advice on common issues, and posing questions to like-minded professionals at a senior level.

This event provides a chance to strengthen professional networks, build new business relationships, seek insights from peers, and refine commercial and technical skills to enhance capabilities as an evolving finance professional.

It's an ideal forum for those with the responsibilities of a Finance Director, particularly in smaller or differently structured businesses, where being the sole senior finance professional is common. Benefit from having a trusted network of similar professionals for advice, guidance, and peer-to-peer support.

Delegates from across the South West region engage in open, lively, and insightful discussions, bringing together senior ACA and FCAs from diverse industries and backgrounds. This encourages the sharing of experiences, open learning, collaboration, networking, and peer-to-peer support.

While there's usually no set agenda, unless requested by delegates, the meetings are facilitated, encouraging all participants to actively contribute to the conversation.

If you wish to bring specific topics for discussion, kindly send your requests to the event organiser in advance.

Attendance is free of charge and open to ICAEW members only.
