Did you notice the appointment of Gordon Stein as the new CFO of Cadogan Petroleum?
It was interesting primarily for one reason - not because we have a picture of the company's Ukrainian treatment plant - but because Stein is CIPFA-qualified.
Rare to see a 'public sector accountant' take a top PLC role, although to be fair to Stein he's been doing it for years.
Wonder whether government cuts, such as the Audit Commission's imminent demise, will see more CIPFAs entering the sphere of business - or even practice?

CIPFA members suited to working in the private and public sectors
This is illustrates just one of the benefits of the CIPFA qualification. Uniquely, it encompasses both the public and private sectors, although our added specialisation is indeed the public services. CIPFA members are qualified to work in both private and public sectors and many can and do transfer between them.
