Pace’s CFO, Steven Miller, was named as a finalist in the Birmingham Business Journal CFO Awards, honoring chief financial officers across the Birmingham metro area. Doing much more than watching the bottom line, CFO’s recognize new business opportunities, manage risk, achieve growth, and act as the steward of financial stability for their company. There are twenty-four finalists across six categories distinguished by the amount of revenue each company brings in annually. The CFO finalists will be honored at a reception on June 13.
