Pfizer promotes its first female CFO as women’s share of top finance jobs slips | Fortune

Pfizer named its first female chief financial officer, promoting an internal executive to the top finance role as the share of women holding CFO positions across major companies declined. The appointment makes Pfizer one of the largest drugmakers to install a woman in the CFO seat, a move that matters as investors and governance watchers track gender representation in corporate leadership. The shift comes amid a broader slip in women’s share of top finance jobs, reversing recent gains and drawing attention to the pipeline for senior finance talent.
