what-really-is-finance-transformation-how-can-you-leverage-it-effectively-183

Cobalt Recruitment’s US Managing Director, Nick Louca, was recently joined by renowned finance transformation specialist, Jasmine Ahmed, for a wide-ranging interview on finance and business transformation, its best uses and potential pitfalls, and the key ingredients to make transformation effective within an organization.Placed by Nick 11 years ago at Dentsu, Jasmine’s distinguished track record has seen her work closely with CFOs and other business leads at PwC, Pfizer, Coca-Cola, and other global names across sectors on their finance transformation journeys. See what her experience has taught her about finance transformation below.What actually IS Finance Transformation?As Nick says, the term ‘finance transformation’ takes on a different guise, depending on the CFO and sector you’re speaking to.You may already be in a phase of finance transformation without knowing it, according to Jasmine. If you’re in a role and department that’s centered on optimizing people, processes, technology and data, and how the finance function – and overall business – is using them, you’re probably somewhere on your finance transformation journey already.It’s not just about new tech or offshoring; it’s about reimagining how the finance function creates value in a changing business environment and asking, “What do I need to look like as a function to deliver value in the future?”.Technology and AI’s roles in transformationThese are often the first things that come to mind when people think of ‘transformation’. While generative AI (GenAI) presents a fantastic opportunity to enhance a business, and is ‘the pathway for non-technical people to start implementing technology into their processes’, Jasmine cautions organizations to get the basics right first, with 2 core messages:Without strong data hygiene, governance, and foundational systems, GenAI can't scale effectively.Leaders must not view GenAI as a plug-and-play solution, but rather as part of a broader transformation journey.Conclusion: True transformation doesn't start with tools; it starts with vision and the right foundation from a company’s leadership. This was something Jasmine saw as particularly strong at Dentsu, and at Pfizer, this culture allowed the transformation of the department to happen organically.    Offshoring: Looking beyond cost-cuttingOffshoring is often misunderstood as just a cost-cutting tactic when it comes to business and finance transformation. Jasmine is all for reframing it as a value-creation resource instead.Her argument is that cost-cutting will only get you so far – and that, before embarking on an offshoring strategy, looking at how it's going to help you on your trajectory to:Unburden teams so they can focus on strategic objectivesAccelerate your innovation agendaUtilize GenAI more in your processes…is where you’ll see true value from it. WHO can help realize your transformation?We’ve talked about offshoring, but before that, according to Jasmine, it’s important to take a WHOLE look at your finance and other teams that’ll be involved in the transformation.By looking at your organizational design and internal talent pool, you can spot gaps – including those areas where those from other backgrounds may be able to offer the greatest assistance. i.e. the potential employee who may not have been a Financial Controller in your industry before, but who does have a solid understanding of accounting, business processes AND, importantly, the combination of creative and analytical capabilities that can help bring your transformation strategy to life. Solving problems differently to others who stick with the status quo, might give you the competitive advantage.  For more advice on finance and business transformation from Jasmine’s heralded career, for her ‘one thing that people aren’t talking about’ when it comes to transformation, or her ‘biggest piece of advice for CFOs embarking on a transformation strategy’, see the videos below or watch the full interview at the bottom of the page. Heading must be equal in lengthHeading must be equal in length   Thank you to Jasmine for her time – you can get in touch with her here, or to discuss how other organizations are developing their transformation journeys, and learn more about the talent they’re hiring to make it possible, get in touch with Nick Louca here.

Our exclusivity model allows us to source candidates from a wide talent pool &ndash; including a dedicated, deep search for those passive candidates not actively looking for a new role at the time.

This more consultative approach provides a market overview and enhances the diversity of your candidate pool.&nbsp;<h3>Contingent recruitment</h3>Our contingent approach supports you when you need it most, when you have a vacancy to fill now. This method can be deployed quickly, and you will only pay if we are successful in placing the right candidate with you.&nbsp;<h3>A recruitment partnership</h3>Through a Partnership agreement, we can create a customised package that suits your requirements. This model allows us to work as a true partner with your organization when you have multiple vacancies, whether they&rsquo;re across your whole business, a single department, or various locations. This is a cost-effective recruitment method that includes everything above plus more.

Cobalt Recruitment strictly adheres to the minimum standards required in relation to its responsibilities under relevant employment legislation in the United Kingdom, Germany and USA as appropriate, and in many cases exceeds those minimums in relation to its employees.</li><li>Cobalt Recruitment offers employment contracts on a guaranteed hours basis only; no offers of employment are made on a zero hours basis.</li><li>Part-time and fixed-term employees within Cobalt Recruitment are provided with the same pro-rata contractual entitlements as full-time and permanent employees. If these are not offered, Cobalt Recruitment is able to rely on objectively justifiable grounds.</li><li>Group employees are offered a competitive remuneration package and Cobalt Recruitment prides itself on the additional benefits it is able to offer its employees on a wide variety of platforms.

It will ensure action is taken in response to reports of modern slavery in its supply chains and any complaints made via the Whistleblowing Policy will be responded to in accordance with the policy.</li><li>Following a review undertaken for Cobalt Recruitment&rsquo;s statement of the previous financial year, Cobalt Recruitment confirms its supplier list is up to date for the current financial year.</li><li>As in the previous financial year, there have been no reports that any of Cobalt Recruitment&rsquo;s suppliers have been involved in activities covered by the Modern Slavery Act.</li></ol>Training<ol><li>Upon commencement of employment, all employees undergo a structured onboarding process. All employees are made aware of Cobalt Recruitment policies relating to standards of behaviour that it requires from them. Cobalt Recruitment also provides training on awareness of modern slavery to those within Cobalt Recruitment who have been identified as having responsibilities in this regard, namely those involved in finance and procurement. Cobalt Recruitment ensures that annual update training is provided.</li></ol>PolicyA Whistleblowing Policy is in place which encourages the reporting of any wrongdoing which is in the public interest.Data Protection and Compliance OfficerCobalt Recruitment has a Group Data Protection &amp; Compliance Officer, to whom all concerns regarding modern slavery should be addressed. Cobalt Recruitment Data Protection &amp; Compliance Officer undertakes an annual review of Cobalt Recruitment&rsquo;s obligations towards eradicating modern slavery within its organisation and supply chains.ReviewThis statement is made in pursuance of Section 54(1) of the Modern Slavery Act 2010 and applies to all companies within and associated to Cobalt Recruitment.

I am one of the rare people that fell into recruitment immediately after graduating from college in 2004. Since then, I have never looked back and have successfully recruited a number of key professionals and run high performing teams across various industry sectors in vastly competitive markets in the US, UK &amp; Australia.I oversee the US branch for Cobalt and we focus on finding top-tier talent across the Construction &amp; Development, Real Estate, Property Management and Finance &amp; Accounting verticals. We are incredibly authentic and pride ourselves on building long-term relationships rather than being solely focused on the quick win.Believe it or not, after 20 years in recruitment I still get a massive kick out of not only making placements for my clients, but also seeing my team members do the same. There is nothing more gratifying than solving a critical business need, while at the same time watching your team flourish and build their own success too.Outside of work, my wife and I really like to travel whenever possible. This being said, it has become increasingly difficult with young toddlers at home, but we are making it our mission to ensure he is the most well traveled person for his age in NYC.

Nick Louca

Team Member

Originally from London, I started my recruitment career in Australia in 2015. Building a Finance and Accounting desk before relocating to New York in 2019. I've successfully placed multiple professionals and built high-performing teams during this time.I lead the Finance and Accounting, and Real Estate team for Cobalt&rsquo;s New York office. We aim to cultivate long-lasting relationships with both clients and candidates across the US, helping to build teams and grow careers.I genuinely enjoy helping and advising people to secure the next step in their careers and assisting companies with their headcount growth. I value the partnerships I've built with these companies. One of my biggest passions is growing internal teams and developing their careers.When not recruiting, I enjoy traveling the world and seeing new places. I am also an avid soccer fan and enjoy annual snowboarding trips.

Over the course of my career in recruitment my focus has been primarily on Finance and Accounting. Helping businesses recruitment efforts ranging from entry level thru Executive leadership, I have been able to help so many professionals find their new &ldquo;home&rdquo;.When people ask what I do, it&rsquo;s also impossible to say in a few words. We do so much more than screen resumes, we become career coaches, market consultants, and build ever lasting relationships. All of this allows us to help people and business reach new heights.I can truly say that every conversation is different, whether I am speaking to a Staff Accountant, Controller or CFO- the excitement never goes away. The excitement in a person voice when you truly helped them solve a problem is what I enjoy the most.When I&rsquo;m not in the office you can find me at the beach, pretending to be the &ldquo;Cool Uncle&rdquo; and watching every and any football game on TV.

I&rsquo;ve earned my reputation as a trusted recruitment partner, by developing transparent relationships and representing high quality professionals in permanent and interim positions across the built environment and beyond.Cobalt unlocks the true potential of recruitment by delivering a top-notch recruiting experience, from initial sourcing and screening through offer negotiations, placements, and onboarding because we understand the importance of finding the perfect match.Getting positive feedback from a client who&rsquo;s hired my candidate(s) and loves the impact that they&rsquo;ve had on their business. Finding the perfect fit is extremely rewarding and I love playing a part in driving the process forward.In my free time I stay active and play music. I&rsquo;m big into soccer --they call me Messi on the pitch &ndash; and I&rsquo;ll go skateboarding or play basketball casually. I&rsquo;m always up for some friendly competition, loser pays for brews.

Executive Consultant - Construction & Development

Over the course of my 15-year career my focus has been dedicated to civil and environmental engineering, construction, IT, architecture, and Real Estate. From entry-level thru executive-level retained search, I have been able to pinpoint the tangible and intangible factors that ensure a successful placement.&nbsp;Manage full-cycle recruiting from initial sourcing and screening through offer negotiations and onboarding for Construction and Real Estate professionals. Working with industry leading Developers and General Contractors, my goal is to understand their specific needs and identify creative ways to deliver talent that will continue to drive their business.The sound of a candidate&rsquo;s voice when they accept an offer. Even when they try not to be excited, you can sense the feeling of accomplishment. It&rsquo;s just like that one incredibly hit golf ball during a terrible round that makes you want to play again.With three young children, I do not have time for personal interests. I imagine they would be exhilarating, but my &ldquo;free time&rdquo; is dedicated to watching and the transportation to and from an endless array of little league, dance, soccer, basketball, boys/girl scouts, football, ice skating, etc. etc.

I&rsquo;ve spent the last few years recruiting in the AEC industry, with a focus on civil and environmental engineering, construction, and architecture. From entry-level roles to executive search, I&rsquo;ve learned how to spot the right mix of experience, mindset, and team fit that makes a hire work&mdash;not just on paper, but in the real worldI work with top construction and development firms to help them find and hire great talent. I handle everything from sourcing and screening to negotiating offers and getting new hires onboarded. At the end of the day, I see myself as a professional problem solver who values both sides of the hiring process&mdash;making sure it&rsquo;s a good fit for the candidate and the client.The best part about working in this industry is hands down the relationships. You get to connect with people you might never have crossed paths with otherwise&mdash;and those connections can be surprisingly meaningful. One of my candidates even invited me to his birthday party! That kind of trust and rapport is what makes this work so rewarding.Outside the office, you&rsquo;ll usually find me in the gym, cheering on the Giants, grabbing some drinks with my guys, or attempting to play guitar (it&rsquo;s definitely a work in progress). I also spend a lot of time with my loud&mdash;but very loving&mdash;Italian family. They keep life entertaining, to say the least.
