Figures issued by Robert Half show that 49 per cent of current chief executive officers have a strong financial background, which is being utilised by firms looking to balance the books and maintain stability.
This is compared with only 31 per cent of firms in 2008, explained Phil Sheridan, managing director of Robert Half UK.
He added: "As the economy continues to improve, we are seeing an increasing demand for leaders with a strong financial skill set to guide organisations through a challenging operating environment and drive competitiveness so they emerge a stronger, more capable business."
It follows the publication of new data by Experian based on the average financial strength of UK organisations, which showed that companies are now financially stronger and less likely to suffer insolvency than a year ago.
