Future finance leaders aren’t growing on trees, according to a Deloitte Consulting survey of finance executives.
Eight percent of the North American finance executives described the supply of finance talent was inadequate and 39% said it was limited. Global finance executives were even gloomier: 8.2% described the supply as inadequate and 50.5% said it was limited.
Similarly, 8% of the North American executives said their finance organizations were unable to meet their demand for finance professionals, and 30% said they were barely able to meet the demand.
The North American executives cited a number of problems that make it hard to attract the employees they need in their finance groups.
Almost 40% said that recent graduates don’t see finance jobs as a good way to launch their career, and 37% said their finance group doesn’t provide enough opportunities for professional development and career advancement. Forty-two percent blamed their organization’s lack of competitive compensation and benefits.
Deloitte Consulting surveyed 636 finance executives from around the world and a range of industries. One hundred and eleven of the executives were from North America.
