SITUATION:
As America’s leading brake technology specialists, the only thing PFC Brakes can’t put a stop to is success. PFC’s standing starts with the company credo, proudly emblazoned on their website:
“We have built our company on a defiant philosophy: NO COMPROMISES.” www.pfcbrakes.com
Given their premium on excellence—check that. On exceeding excellence—why would PFC compromise when looking for a VP Finance?
This award-winning juggernaut, located in Clover, South Carolina, has been redefining calipers, discs, and brake pads in its state-of-the-art production plant since 1984. That same year, after launching their revolutionary non-asbestos friction material under the CarbonMetallic brand, PFC recorded its first NASCAR win, establishing a long and fruitful relationship with that iconic institution. Countless patents and just as many awards later, PFC went on to become the official supplier to Porsche Motorsports, Indy Car, and SRX – the Superstar Racing Experience.
But the road to becoming a highly successful name brand includes having a strategic leader for their finance department. This invaluable position would have to be filled by a goldplate aspirant, one not only responsible for financial planning, auditing, and reporting but who could stand on a reputation as a bona fide visionary, able to play co-strategist in the company’s quest to reach the summit of the industry.
