When 21-year PwC veteran Mark McCaffrey decided that it was time to open his post-PwC career, he briefed the firm\u2019s U.S leadership about his plans, diligently outlined 24 months of departure prep, and set aside an extra helping of patience.
Two weeks later, he had a CFO job offer from publicly traded Internet domain company GoDaddy.
\u201cAt the time, I thought that I\u2019d have a couple of years to figure out what my next step was going to be,\u201d recalls McCaffrey, whose 2021 CFO appointment was notable not just for the speed with which McCaffrey landed the role but also for the substance behind the match that was made.
