From CPA to Scale: An Evening with Saeideh Fard, CFO of Tulip Retail
Date and time
Description
** NOTE: Event intended for CPAs and CPA candidates**
Join us for a fireside chat with Saeideh Fard, the CFO of Tulip Retail. Saeideh started her career at PwC before making stops at Canadian Tire, Sysomos & Marketwired. Before recently joining Tulip Retail as CFO, Saeideh was the Group CFO of TravelEdge, a market leader in the luxury travel space. Throughout her career, Saeideh has gained a reputation of being a transformational business leader, having taken Sysomos, TravelEdge and now Tulip through rapid change in advance of massive scaling. After this diverse range of experiences, it’s no wonder that Saeideh’s skill-set travels far beyond finance – from HR, to Executive Leadership, to Product and everything in between. One of Toronto’s most well-liked finance leaders (name drop her around town and you’ll hear it first hand), she is passionate about diversity, inclusion & gender equality, and is a proud supporter of the next generation of tech & finance leaders.
Join us for our chat with Saeideh, where we’ll get an inside look at her early career, what transformational change really means when you’re the one leading it, how she has prepared companies for massive scale and what the finance leader of the future looks like.
If you’re interested in learning more about Saeideh’s unique CPA path, please join us at OneEleven for a wonderful evening of networking, food/drinks & learning!
*Snacks and refreshments will be served during networking.
Bonus: Get a verifiable CPD hour!
