VP, Field Marketing and Engagement at Oracle | NetSuite

When it comes right down to it, I'm a product guy. I've been working in different product roles in software companies pretty much my entire career - starting from building and launching some of the most successful products at IBM, helping Hyperion create offerings for a new marketspace or helping reinvent Pilot software by going after a new marketspace. After going to SAP through acquisition, I moved into leading marketing for their GRC products, one of SAP's key growth areas. I've now spent almost six years as part of the NetSuite team, where I've been a key part of driving close to triple digit growth across our product verticals including manufacturing and wholesale distribution. Now I'm responsible for driving overall Industry Marketing for NetSuite. Over the last twenty years, I've tirelessly worked across consulting, pre-sales, product management, marketing, alliances and development teams to create market leading products and increase their adoption working across sales teams and customers.

Ben is obsessed with the finance function, serving those within it, and enabling those who rely upon it. He believes finance is and always will be people-driven, the purpose of data is dialogue, and successful transactions are a function of compelling storytelling and team credibility (much more so than a multiple of EBITDA). Referred to by colleagues as “The Mutt,” Ben’s background spans financial planning and analysis (FP&A), private equity investing, investment banking, commercial lending, C-suite and board advisory, small and midsize business (SMB) management, and, most recently, finance community development and learning programs.

He leads the team at First Water Finance (FWF), the Finance Advancement Platform, which offers finance leaders, business owners, and capital partners access to a holistic finance ecosystem across FP&A, Corporate Finance, and Community. Whether it is tapping expertise for FP&A BPO or project implementation, executing on transaction initiatives, joining a peer group community, finding/filling your next finance role, or connecting with vetted capital or service providers, FWF is the place for your finance dialogue to make the connections that propel business and professional advancement.

FWF is integrated with The CFO Alliance (CFOA), a premier nationwide peer group community serving finance leaders. Since inception, CFOA has served almost 10,000 finance leaders, delivering impactful peer events, original content, peer benchmarking, and talent acquisition services for the Office of the CFO. Ben serves as the Head of Learning & Development for the community, responsible for content, programming, and peer group and development programs.

Ben is deeply committed to finance education, particularly in the small to midsize business (SMB) space. Having worked alongside ~100 management teams, capital providers, and partners, Ben understands the structural gaps within SMBs related to finance experience and engaging with institutional capital. As catalysts to close those gaps, Ben authored the book Relational Finance (www.relationalfinance.com) and created the free Finance Readiness (FiRe) Score assessment tool (www.fire-score.com). If it has anything to do with finance professionals, processes and technology, or capital and transactions, Ben and FWF will help you advance. Learn more at www.firstwater.finance.
