PROVIDENCE – Providence Business News has selected the winners of its third annual Chief Financial Officer Awards program, honoring nine individuals for their fiscal savvy.

The winner of the career achievement award is Jeffrey A. Burchill, senior vice president and chief financial officer of FM Global.

Burchill’s nominator, chairman and CEO Shivan S. Subramaniam, credited him with keeping a “steady hand at the financial wheel” of FM Global, to help weather the mutual insurance company through unsteady economic times.

According to his nomination form, Burchhill’s leadership “helped the company thrive and grow during a period when similar companies failed, struggled or required massive government bailouts to remain in business.”
