From Go to CFO

In this latest episode of From Go to CFO, Kunal sat down with Georgia Coulston, CFO for A W Edwards and president of the NSW Chapter of the National Association of Women in Construction in Australia to talk all things finance, being a female leader in a male dominated industry and how she balances work and family life.

It's an incredibly insightful chat about what it's like being in the top job, the challenges new mothers' face when returning to a leadership position, IQ, EQ and PQ, and the way the construction industry and the role of the finance professional is ever evolving and changing. 

It's well worth a listen! 

Tune in for a great chat between Nick Contain and Eden Skyring, CFO for Coombes Property Group as he shares the highs and lows of his career, moving out of chartered, working across diverse industries and stepping outside of the finance bubble. 

Key highlights include: 
 
·  Why the role of the CFO can be largely undefined, so you have to make it your own 

·  The importance of building relationships and gaining trust across the business 

·  To be successful, you need to step outside of the finance function and challenge yourself to think differently 

·  A good CFO can talk the language of other parts of the business 

·  Follow the roles in your career, not the companies, that is what will give you the development opportunities  

In episode one of our newly relaunched podcast, From Go to CFO, Greg O'Shea sat down with Kunal Gupta, a Senior Finance & Accounting Recruitment Consultant from [axr], to talk all things finance and recruitment. 

Kunal is a former Commercial Director, and after a lengthy finance career, decided to move over to the so-called 'dark side' of recruitment. 

In this episode, he shares his experiences being on both sides of the relationship, breaks down stereotypes of people's perceptions of what a recruiter does, and gives unique insight into how senior finance leaders can best work with a recruiter to make better career decisions and/or make sure they are hiring the right person for their team.

It's a great way to introduce our new CFO podcast to our listeners, with some great CFO chats lined up in the coming weeks!  

In this episode of Your Future in Finance, we are joined by our very own [axr] recruitment & search Directors, Greg Madden and Mike Dickson, who will chat about Getting Interview Fit. They will share insights and their experience with interviews and how to better perform in "meetings".  

Enjoy!
