In this episode, we sit down with Rob Alleva, Director of Finance at Tronox, to unpack what it really takes to modernize finance in a complex, global manufacturing environment.
Rob shares how Tronox approached finance transformation with a clear focus on scalability, transparency, and becoming a stronger business partner. Together with Nova's Senior VP of Delivery, Tom Foley, the group discusses the realities of managing consolidation, reporting, and planning across regions, and why legacy tools often hold finance teams back from delivering timely, actionable insights.
Tom adds perspective from the consulting side, touching on Nova's NorthStar methodology and helping frame Tronox's journey within broader finance transformation trends. The conversation dives into standardization, data visibility, and automation, highlighting how the right approach enables finance teams to move beyond manual work and spend more time on analysis and decision support.
From accelerating the close to enabling better conversations with the business, this episode offers a grounded look at what modern finance leadership looks like in practice.
