Hola. "Chief" estaría incluido si usas la opción "director general financiero". Pero personalmente creo que es un poco redundante.

You can add 'general' if you want but «director financiero» will do just as well and is even more common :-)

Asker: Thank you for your suggestion. Francisco,do you also translate the English term "chief"in this context? I think Spanish version of "chief" is missing from the translation. Can you please correct me if I'm wrong? Thanks a lot.

Asker: Thank you so much. I appreciate it.
