Manage episode 400748209 series 3351980
Andrew Lynch, Head of FP&A at UK card discount scheme for public service employees, Blue LIght Card, is known to his nearly 11,000 Twitter followers as The SMB Finance Guy.
The FP&A leader also runs the highly popular Net Income newsletter regularly posts small business opportunities, scaling companies, systems, strategy, “with a few shitposts thrown in for good measure” (His writing has also been picked up by Business Insider).
In this episode Andrew reveals:
- The power of mentors in transforming his finance career from a “struggle to find someone who would take me” to high-profile roles at Anabas, Capital One, and Blue LIght Card.
- Starting a new budget from scratch and building an FP&A team at Blue Light Card
- Negotiation and sandbagging with sales and how FP&A can deal with the challenges
- How FP&A best practice saw Andrew deliver one SMB £10 million a year in revenue and from £8k in profit to £23 million
- Being Fired by Four times Bestselling New York Times author Tucker Max the day before Xmas Eve
- Skill stacking – getting to be the top 25% in the world at four or five different related things – rather than trying to be the best
- Being one of the few FP&A leaders on the comedy circuit
