What a way to kick off the season. ⚾ On Friday, Float and our friends at Campfire hosted a special group for the Blue Jays home opener, marking the start of the Jays' 50th season and a chance to bring together some of the best finance professionals we know. We came to celebrate last year's AL East Championship, witness a W and do what the Float community does best—connect, share and figure out ways to grow together, right here in Canada.

Finance as a business partner, not just a month-end function. That's the mindset Josh Andler, CPA and Senior Director of Finance at Jane App, brings to his work every day. In a recent profile with Chartered Professional Accountants of British Columbia, Josh shared how he's encouraged at work to explore new tools that help the small but mighty finance team serve as strategic business partners. "We've been using the accounts payment management tool Float for close to four years. We've helped them shape their product offerings and they've provided us the ability to pilot their new features," says Josh. "We recently helped them with their new reimbursements feature which has revolutionized our ability to automate the expense side of our business and we also earn cash back on all of our spend now, which is fantastic." When finance teams have the right tools, they move from reactive to proactive. They stop chasing receipts and start driving strategy. And when the companies behind those tools listen to their customers, they build tools to directly address their needs and expand their impact. Read the full profile → https://lnkd.in/gNPHgEmD
