But you know you need a fit for purpose finance and commercial team with sensible systems to deliver on your plan and provide decision support. Executives come to me when they need to make that happen. Clients come to me when: ■ They are finding it challenging to understand where the numbers are and where they are going ■ Exploration and Operations are being affected by bottlenecks, and people are pointing the finger at finance ■ They are looking for a fit for purpose finance & commercial team which can scale with the business After working with me, finance teams are left with: 1) A smoother financial close 2) A clear focus and finance team vision, with a road map to achieve it 3) More time to focus on adding value to the business Which leaves Boards and Executive Committees with more confidence in making the critical decisions needed to grow the company.
