I'm In - The Institute of Hospitality's Official Podcast - The Importance of The Financial Controller "I'm In": The Official Institute of Hospitality Podcast

    • Careers

Hot on the heals of our building a stable business podcast last month, we thought it was a great idea to rekindle our importance of series and focus on the Financial Controller.
To help Phil look into this, we welcomed Harsh Sodhani AIH, a Sales Manager at the Hampton by Hilton London City, F&B Specialist Alper Zan MIH and the IOHs very own Finance Director, Leon William FOH.
Coupled with Phil’s own experience as a small business owner, it was fascinating to get the different opinions and focus on this role using Finance, Sales, Operational and Entrepreneurial hats.
In this chat, they cover:-
What is the role of a Financial Controller and what does it cover?The attributes required to be a successful Financial ControllerAdvice for Aspiring Financial ControllersNailing the basicsThe impact of tech and automation on the roleBalancing Financial Rigour with the guest experienceUltimately, just how important is the Financial Controller?
Again some great reasons were given as to why our guests said I’m in to the IOH and they were:-
Because the IOH provides professional recognitionTo make a difference to the industryTo give back to the industryGetting established in a new territoryConnecting to peopleThe mentorship programs
As per last month, we re-iterate our point on if you are struggling with business or career at the moment, please don’t suffer in silence.  There’s an incredible network of knowledge available within the IOH and please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need help of any kind.
Enjoy!
