Seven in 10 finance directors say their business is seeing growth, according to a survey from finance staffing specialist Robert Half.

The findings from Robert Half’s executive round-table series, reveal seven in 10 (70%) said that their business was experiencing growth, while a further 79% of those who could not report growth today predicted that it would return within the next year.

Robert Half managing director UK, Phil Sheridan, says: “In uncertain times for the UK economy it’s heartening to encounter the positive attitudes of finance and business leaders.

“In the coming months finance teams will be looking to their leaders to develop corporate strategy and strive to break down barriers between finance and the rest of the organisation.”
