About Myrto Siappa

Finance transformation leader and strategic business partner who thrives on simplifying complexity and modernizing finance for growth. I bring CFO-level insight, entrepreneurial agility, and a deep passion for enabling smarter, faster decisions across the organization.I’m a finance executive and former CFO with 20 years of experience leading organizations through transformation, growth, and recovery. My focus is on designing finance functions that empower strategy, accelerate decision-making, and make finance a true partner to the business.Over the past two decades, I’ve led finance, accounting, FP & A, IT, and internal control teams across mid-sized and global companies (revenues $50M–$300M+), guiding them through restructuring, scaling, and modernization. I’m known for my curiosity, persistence, professionalism and depth — I dig in to understand the real drivers behind performance and use data to shape pragmatic, forward-looking solutions.I believe finance should enable innovation, not restrict it. I’ve built lean, transparent structures that encourage ownership and collaboration across sales, marketing, operations, and supply chain. Whether implementing new systems, navigating crises, or aligning culture with strategy, my approach is always people-first, insight-led, and transformation-focused.While much of my experience is in consumer goods, I’m excited to apply my expertise across industries — wherever there’s a need for strategic copiloting, clarity & agility in finance, status quo change, and tangible progress & results.Core Competencies:Leadership & Strategy:Strategic Resource Allocation | Finance Transformation | Board Collaboration | Growth Strategy | Change LeadershipFinance & Operations:P&L & Cash Ownership | FP & A Excellence | S & OP Forecasting | CAPEX & Risk Management | IFRS & GAAP ComplianceSystems & Analytics:Finance Systems Optimization (SAP, Oracle, Hyperion)| Power BI & Data Analytics | Performance Management | Digital EnablementCulture & Collaboration:Cross-Functional Partnership | High Emotional Intelligence | Transparency & Cultural Agility | Entrepreneurial Mindset | Team EmpowermentI’m always open to discussions about growth, transformation, and the evolving role of finance in shaping the future of business.
