Background

About Evan Wright

An experienced, innovative and purpose-driven head of finance and CPA with broad financial management and business advisory experience, my signature strength rests on carving out new paths to maximise both the opportunity for growth and long-term sustainability. The sum total of my diverse background, experience and education has given me a unique perspective on business leadership and financial management. As a professional musician, I learnt tenacity and focus. My time in the RAAF showed the value of discipline and clear goals. In sales, persuasion. As a teacher, patience, and as the only creative sector finance leader to secure a place on the McKinsey & Co Executive Program, the skills needed to drive transformational change and succeed in today’s environment. I draw on this ambivalence and variety of perspectives to identify what the organisation needs and provide solutions that create efficiency, save money and enable growth. With a fiercely creative mind, I see all the colours between black and white. As a result, I set strategies, build capabilities and create systems that are agile to the needs of the industry and the times. If you want to know more, let’s connect on LinkedIn.
