About Daniel Mignone

As a Senior Finance Executive my expertise lies in staff leadership and mentoring, and driving business growth and strategy as an integral member of executive teams. I have been instrumental in leveraging business intelligence tools; and through in-depth financial analysis, improving operational awareness which supports the Board in making well-informed and meaningful decisions. I apply robust understanding of key business drivers across all business units which have led to the creation of insightful dashboards showcasing impactful commentary, trends, and actions. Excelling in leading businesses and teams through mergers and acquisitions, and organisational and operational restructures, I have significantly slashed expenditure, achieved high staff retention rates, and aligned team and departmental outcomes with the strategic needs of the business and key stakeholders. Selected Achievements • Developed a 3-tier financial modelling forecast and which was key in identifying monthly over-expenditure and in turn, reducing costs by up to 15%. • Spearheaded acquisition of a new company to operate, grow business and reposition the group Nationally which increased turnover by 20%. • Mentored a large team and drove cultural change which led to a higher-performing team which increased Staff retention from 65% to over 90%. • Streamlined group structure and processes that reduced workload by 20%. • Led a company company-wide cost saving initiative that achieved a 12% saving on unnecessary and wasteful costs. • Managed Risk on a large Government Contract by implementing processes that reduced paybacks by 80%. • Transformed the performance and productivity of the national sales team by implementing realistic KPI targets that aligned to the company’s strategic goals.
