Managing an enterprise’s costs whilst also channeling investment and resources toward innovation and growth are constant challenges for CFOs and finance leaders – building an agile finance function that can make data-driven decisions, despite ongoing disruption, is critical for the success of any organisation.

The finance function will play a pivotal role in achieving AstraZeneca’s bold aspiration to be pioneers in science, lead in chosen disease areas and transform patient outcomes, and by 2030 deliver 15 new medicines, achieve industry-leading growth whilst being carbon negative.
