Felicity Gooding has joined the team at Vulcan Group as the company’s new chief financial officer (CFO).
Gooding has over 20 years experience in both strategic and financial analysis, as well as debt funding, corporate finance, mergers and acquisitions, and management and financial accounting within Australia, Singapore, London and Washington DC.
Her most recent role was as CFO and global head of commercial at Fortescue Future Industries, and she has also served as deputy chief executive officer at the Minderoo Founding and as chief operating officer and CFO of both Minderoo and Tatterang.
“Ms Gooding’s extensive experience with large-scale financing will assist the company during the financing of the multiple phases of Vulcan’s zero carbon lithium project, of which Phase 1 financing is already under way, and is an opportune appointment at the current stage of the company’s development,” Vulcan Group said in an ASX announcement.
Gooding will step into the role as current CFO Robert Ierace steps down. Ierace will remain with Vulcan until the end of March to assist in a smooth transition for Gooding.
“The company would like to take this opportunity to thank Mr Ierace for his invaluable hard work and efforts during his tenure in which the company has experienced significant growth and wishes him all the best in his future endeavours,” Vulcan said.
