Picture this: a powerful, dynamic platform for senior financial executives, bridging the gap between your career prospects and the meaningful connections you need. Reimagine your professional life with The Financial Executives Networking Group (The FENG).
Founded in 1991, The FENG has matured from a small Connecticut-based initiative to a global powerhouse, universally recognized as the largest networking group of its kind. With a membership exceeding 30,000 professionals, including Chief Financial Officers, Controllers and Treasurers, in addition to Managing Directors and Vice Presidents of multiple financial verticals, The FENG dwarfs its competition in scale and effectiveness.
Led by a dedicated team, including Co-Chairs Marty Latman, Bruce Lynn, and myself, along with an army of committed volunteers, The FENG serves as more than just a professional networking platform. Members benefit from a treasure trove of resources that include an active job board with hundreds of senior-level finance positions listed monthly, valuable career advice, and on-demand access to detailed member profiles — a networking power tool unmatched in the industry.
One key reason to join our group is ‘The FENG Newsletter’ published five days a week, 52 weeks a year, aiming to keep you informed with the latest issues shaping the financial world.
“The FENG has the absolute best resources for folks in transition. We financial folks are fortunate to have it. The advice coming forth [from the editorials] is the best anyone in transition can find. It’s practical, to the point, down to earth and most importantly… correct, in my opinion. I want to be current on The FENG teachings to coach anyone asking me or me recognizing that they could benefit from these tips.”
— John Burns, Member since 1999
And that’s not all. The FENG’s unique matrix approach enhances your networking opportunities with chapters in most major U.S. cities, active international chapters in the UK, Europe, Canada, Japan, and India, and Special Interest Groups in 26 industries and 16 financial functions such as Treasury, Tax, Internal Audit, and more.
“My membership in The Financial Executives Networking Group started in the last century. I am a daily reader of the newsletter, chaired a special interest group for several years and, for as long as I can recall, a financial supporter too. That commitment isn’t because I have aspired to or ever held an audit, controller or CFO role despite more than 50 years in the corporate finance world. Rather, I am attracted by the group’s networking focus and, especially in more recent years, the opportunity to pay it forward even after retiring.” — Jim Schwartz
The FENG is a respected 501(c)(3) educational non-profit, our mission is to usher the Power of Networking and equally importantly, the Power of Friendships to foster lasting professional relationships.
The FENG’s sponsorship-based model ensures a unique value proposition without membership fees. If you don’t have a current member to sponsor you, we’ll assign one to maximize your membership benefits. To qualify as a member, you should possess extensive experience, having held senior financial positions for 5+ years, with a minimum of 15 years of professional expertise.
Embrace your future with The FENG, a community where success truly knows no bounds.
“I joined The FENG in 2010 and have found it to be helpful in many different ways as my career has developed over the years. The editorials are invariably insightful, the chapter and S.I.G. meetings provide a great way to meet new people and exchange ideas, the member directory is one of a kind, and the job leads provide a good way to see what’s going on in the market. In fact, networking through other FENG members has led me to two full-time positions.
I have been a consistent financial supporter of The FENG as the benefits I’ve received far exceed the cost of my donations. For those who are able, I encourage you to make a contribution so that The FENG continues to thrive for many years to come.” — Gordon G. Rothrock
