Early in November of 2020, Sage, the market leader in cloud business management solutions, revealed its first-ever list of the most visionary finance professionals across the globe. The Finance Futurists, presented by Sage, are a diverse group of finance leaders selected from a variety of sectors and backgrounds. They have been recognized for driving innovation and showing leadership across businesses of all sizes.
The Financial Futurists were recognized for their contribution to their business and industry, demonstrated by a commitment to technological evolution and outstanding leadership qualities. Common among this year’s Finance Futurists was a drive to bring the finance function to the core of business success, and a unique combination of analytical and soft skills. The Finance Futurists also displayed the ability to thrive in uncertain times, and an openness to looking for tech solutions in new places.

Financial Futurists Insightful Accountant is featuring them in a special Finance Futurist Fridays series, today we are looking at Magdalena Kosior-Molloy the CFO/COO of Holman Webb Lawyers in Australia.
Magdalena moved to Australia as a young professional from Poland, and met her destiny in a coffee shop when a female client took a chance on her, thus launching her career in finance. The rest, they might say, is history – but Magdalena is far from done telling her story.
With more than 15 years of financial management experience and expertise, Magdalena is widely recognized for her thought leadership and strategic business counsel. In her tenure at Holman Webb Lawyers, she’s transformed the finance function into one that not only serves an advisory role to the business but also builds, motivates, and manages high-performing teams.
Magdalena’s strategic and leadership skills have greatly contributed to her success to-date and, in November of 2017, she was awarded CFO of the Year – Runner-Up in the 2017 Executive of the Year awards.
Prior to her tenure at Holman Webb Lawyers, Magdalena served as Group Financial Controller of TP3, a professional training platform.
Now, she works to give back and leverage her story to help other female professionals gain visibility and rise through the ranks themselves.
