Overview How we helped Outcomes acheived

KordaMentha was engaged to support a rapidly expanding technology division within a major Australian superannuation business.

The division had grown significantly in a short period, scaling from a small team to over 100 staff and managing a projected budget of approximately $60 million. This growth created a need for more robust financial governance and operational clarity to support strategic investment and internal capability development.

How we helped

To address this, KordaMentha placed an experienced Director within the division to work closely with the CFO over a three-month period.

The engagement focused on establishing a rigorous finance structure, implementing a clear budgeting process, and developing a centralised reporting framework.

A financial modelling specialist also provided analytical, procurement, and forecasting support to strengthen decision-making and financial planning.

Outcomes acheived

The outcome was a finance accountability framework that aligned cost centres with managerial responsibility, a refined budget with clear ownership and targets, and improved procurement and working capital processes.

A central reporting structure was introduced to enhance transparency and enable more effective performance management.

These improvements provided the client with a scalable financial foundation to support continued growth and investment, while reinforcing governance and accountability across the division.
