Hidden Risks, Untapped Opportunities: How Finance Leaders Can Do More with Less

Finance leaders often lose money in ways they don’t even notice. From overstretched teams and staff shortages to currency volatility and poor FX strategies, the hidden risks inside finance functions can silently chip away at profitability.

In this episode, Craig Chatwin sits down with Sharon Constançon, CEO of Valufin, to explore how firms can tackle these challenges head-on. Together, they uncover the silent profit-killers holding finance teams back and share practical ways to unlock efficiency, savings, and scalability through outsourcing and fractional expertise.

Expect candid conversation, real-world examples, and a fresh perspective on how accounting firms and finance leaders can “do more with less” in today’s competitive landscape.

Tune in to hear Craig and Sharon discuss:

• Why staffing shortages and high turnover quietly drain profits
• How currency volatility impacts businesses more than leaders realise
• Practical ways outsourcing and FX management free up capacity and protect margins
• What the CFO of the future will look like, and how to prepare today

If you’re a finance leader or accounting firm owner looking for smarter ways to protect profits and build resilience, this conversation is packed with insights you won’t want to miss.
