A bad hire costs more than money. It costs trust. It costs time. It costs culture. In finance — and in every high‑stakes role — the impact of a wrong hire hits harder than most leaders realise. It’s not just the recruitment fee or the training budget. It’s the hidden cost when your top performers pick up the slack. When burnout starts to show. When your best people quietly start exploring other opportunities. Poor hiring breaks more than budgets — it breaks momentum. And momentum is hard to rebuild. Yet, too often, decisions are rushed: CV looks good? Hired. Role urgent? Filled. But leadership hiring is never just about filling a seat. The wrong choice in a critical role puts financial integrity, compliance, and even your brand reputation at risk. The stakes are too high for shortcuts. Slow down. Ask the right questions. Prioritise culture fit as much as technical expertise. One exceptional hire lifts the whole team. One poor hire can bring it crashing down. At Capital Humano Executive Search, we combine deep market insight with a meticulous assessment process to ensure you don’t just hire someone — you hire the right one. Because in the end, it’s not about filling positions. It’s about building lasting value. #executivesearch #recrutamentoeselecao #capitalhumano
