FinPro Webinar – Financial Sustainability Strategy – why do I need one? Thursday 12 December 2024

November 8, 2024

In recent years, some councils have adopted a Financial Sustainability Strategy (or a similar framework), even though it isn’t a mandatory document. These strategies offer a clear, strategic direction to both Councillors and the community, helping guide decision-making for councils to plan transparently, proactively, and responsibly for financial sustainability in the short, medium, and long term.

Join us for this insightful webinar, building on the recent FinPro Senior Leaders Summit, where you’ll hear directly from senior executives who have played key roles in developing these strategies. We’ll explore why these strategies were created, how they were developed, their connection to Council decisions, and the progress made in their implementation.

Simone Wickes, FinPro Executive Member and Director Corporate Services, Monash CC will lead the discussion with a panel of experts sharing their experiences from the past 12 months.

The panel will feature:

  • Mathew Hyde, CEO at City of Wodonga;
  • Matt Jarvis, CFO at City of Yarra; and
  • Mick Smith, General Manager of Corporate Performance at Central Goldfields Shire Council.

Don’t miss this opportunity to gain valuable insights into the benefits and challenges of implementing a Financial Sustainability Strategy.
