Colin Kerr

I am a Principal Consultant, Contracting & Interim, specialising in Accounting & Finance Recruitment. I focus on the CFO role and their direct reports. I also publish a monthly CFO Market update, The CFO Collective, as seen in the CFO Magazine ANZ.

After graduating with a first-class honours degree in Accountancy from the University of Stirling, I began my career with PwC in their audit team in London and became a qualified Chartered Accountant. After a secondment to PwC Jakarta for three years, I moved to Sydney in 1997 and began my recruitment career with a leading international recruitment firm.

I am a specialist interim and contracting recruiter with over 24 years’ experience in Accounting and Finance recruitment. If the role requires a qualified accountant – that is my area of expertise. I focus on the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) role and the direct reports (Financial Controller, Finance Manager, Management Accountant, Financial Planning & Analysis), as well as any other finance roles that sit in a corporate head office – tax, internal audit and treasury.

I love the contracting/interim management market and always strive to solve my client’s immediate contracting needs alongside providing excellent opportunities for my extensive network of experienced contractors.

Outside of work, I am kept busy being an “uber driver” for my four kids and manager to some of their sporting teams.
