Congratulations to our Company Resources and Finance (CRAFT) team, who have won the Finance Transformation of the Year category at the inaugural Techstack Awards.
This fantastic achievement recognises the team’s hard work, expertise and vision in transforming our systems infrastructure. The move from NetSuite to Xero, BoldDesk and a suite of supporting applications has created a more streamlined, flexible and efficient technology stack, delivering significant benefits across our organisation.
The new technology stack includes Xero, BoldDesk, Mayday, ApprovalMax and Apron. The Awards panel was particularly impressed by the savings achieved and by the fact that, as a not-for-profit organisation, we reinvest those savings in the education ecosystem.
Carole Bennett, HFL CEO, said: “Enormous thanks to CFO Techstack for this recognition of our financial transformation. Andrew Griffiths and our internal teams have added so much value to our business and the good we can do through their vision and leadership. We’re a not-for-profit, but operating effectively and driving improvements forward, using new and evolving technology, is a priority because of that. We have to be the best we can be, as efficiently as possible. We owe that to the schools, trusts and settings we serve. We’re enormously proud of our HFL Education colleagues.”
A huge well done and thank you to everyone involved. This recognition is thoroughly deserved and celebrates the impact the team’s work continues to have across HFL and for the schools, trusts and settings we support.
