I am a results-driven and relatable Chief Financial Officer with a solid record driving strategy, developing talent, managing risk portfolio’s and helping position organisations for growth and long-term success. Leveraging a breath of industry experience across mining technology, manufacturing, FMCG, Information technology and Education sectors, I bring a well rounded understanding of how to deliver information in a usable way to suit board and executives teams to inform decisions and protect the financial health of the business. Known for being a straight shooter, who is affable, pragmatic and commercially focused, I take a holistic view of the business and broader impacts as I work to continuously develop and improve financial controls and bottom line profit. Leading change from the front, I am able to sell the story and benefits, and drive improvements to streamline and transform systems, operations, processes and team culture. My leadership style is very much based on coaching, painting a clear vision and empowering people while building trust and creating an open and collaborative culture. I pride myself on my innate ability to nurture talent and distil key messaging to teams to make goals real and attainable. Complimenting my stakeholder engagement and leadership expertise, I am a qualified CA, member of the Australian Institute of Company Directors and long-term facilitator with the Institute of Chartered Accountants. This underpinned by deep technical knowledge across; compliance & ASIC reporting and auditing, due diligence activities to support business sales, in-depth data analysis and information investigation capabilities and well honed presentation and negotiation skills. As an analytically minded accounting specialist who enjoys interactions with all aspects of the business, I see the finance function as the motor mechanics of the business world > keeping things humming along. I have a proven track record in providing the right financial information at the right time, information which is materially correct, timely, relevant and useful.
