Profile bio
About Paul Cooke
I am a senior finance executive who has been a trusted advisor to three successive Group CFOs in a top 50 ASX listed FMCG company over a 10 year period.In challenging situations, I am calm and objective. I strongly believe in fairness and choosing the kinder approach. Developing strong relationships is important to me, and helps me resolve issues amicably and get things done collaboratively. I enjoy taking a complex matter, drawing out the key insights and presenting actionable solutions to senior leadership and the Board. As the no.2 to the Group CFO I have enjoyed and been known for:Effectively leading the core finance functions of business planning & performance and technical accounting ensuring no surprises and driving improvement towards best practice.Developing strong relationships with the business CFOs and MDs as well as Group functional heads to enable finance decisions, such as the Budget, to be reached collaboratively.Providing insightful proposals and opinions on performance and major transactions, allowing the leadership team and Board to take evidence-based decisions with positive outcomes. Managing audit committee and external auditor relationships and delivering finance presentations and insights to the Board, freeing up the Group CFO to act as an assistant MD in the meetings.The key outcome has been to free up the Group CFO to focus on co-piloting the business with the Group MD. In addition, credibility built with the Group MD and Board enabled me to also step up as the interim Group CFO successfully on two occasions.In May 2021 the company was acquired by a European business, and I have spent the last 2 years leading the integration of the Finance function into the new structure. Having successfully completed the integration, I will finish in December. Going forward I am looking to share my experience and skills in either a permanent or an interim capacity in similar large organisations as well as seeking non-executive board positions.Please contact me via a LinkedIn message.
