Choose the right perspective
Match the person's market and company scale to yours, since a national mobile operator, a regional group spanning several countries and a smaller network provider face different financing and reporting demands. For questions about a specific finance discipline, such as treasury, tax, controllership or planning, favor people whose earlier roles show that background.
Questions to take into the conversation
- 01How do you decide how much to spend on network capital each year, and how do you judge whether that spending paid off?
- 02How do you balance debt reduction, dividends or buybacks and investment when revenue growth slows?
- 03What changed in your finance team, reporting or systems when you stepped into the CFO role, and what would you do differently?
