I work in strategic finance for a tech company. How long have you been out of school? Everyone on my team has a master's degree, not saying you definitely need one, but we definitely prefer it. Everyone on my team also has an IB background (except me).

It would be good to find specific roles via linkedin or indeed that you are interested in and see what the qualifications are. You also might be happy in a strategy role (we have a lot of ex McKinsey folks at my company).

 

Strategic financial management includes not just managing a company's finances but also managing them with the goal of success, i.e., achieving the company's goals and objectives while also increasing shareholder value over time.

To get into the strategic financial role you need:

The transition from consulting to other roles.

Transitioning from the financial sector.

From an MBA or operational experience, make the transition.

Transitioning from the position of Chief of Staff.
