Security Properties CFO Wins 2015 CFO Of The Year

The Puget Sound Business Journal's CFO of the Year Awards are presented to financial professionals in Washington for outstanding performance in their roles as corporate financial stewards.
See below for a list of 2015 honorees.
This program highlights the importance of financial executives in the region. CEOs often are credited with their companies’ successes. They are the faces and voices of the business. However, in many cases, they wouldn't have arrived at that point without the strategic guidance of their CFOs. Chief financial officers must be fearless financial strategists and provide guidance and sound advice to their CEOs and board directors in order to realize their CEOs’ visions.
We honor the region’s top financial executives via our annual CFO of the Year Awards program because of the role the CFOs play in the success of their companies and in the growth of the Puget Sound region's economy. Each winner is also profiled in a Puget Sound Business Journal special report.
Join us for on June 4th and meet this year's winners!
Congratulations 2015 CFO of the Year Honorees!
