The CEO-CFO alliance for sustainable growth: At the heart of Guava Amenities' sustainability initiatives lies a symbiotic partnership between Gabriel and his CFO.

With a background in Big Four accounting and extensive experience in major global banks and insurance companies, the CFO plays a pivotal role in driving the company's sustainable growth strategy.

‘Our CFO oversees not just finance but also operations… He's very involved in our strategic decisions that we make as an organisation,’ confirms Gabriel.

This collaborative dynamic emphasises the recognition that accountancy and finance professionals are uniquely positioned to bridge the gap between financial considerations and sustainable business practices.

‘Business means your expenses have to be less than your income, then it will be profitable, then it will be sustainable,’ he adds.

By emphasising financial prudence and responsible resource management, Gabriel underscores the vital role of the finance function in ensuring long-term viability and resilience of any organisation committed to sustainable growth.

Embracing social sustainability – empowering communities: Guava Amenities' commitment to sustainability extends far beyond environmental considerations, encompassing a strong focus on social responsibility, and community empowerment. Gabriel's visionary leadership – coupled with the CFO's financial acumen – has enabled the company to forge impactful partnerships that promote inclusion and uplift marginalised communities.

One such partnership is with a non-profit organisation in Singapore. Through this collaboration, Guava Amenities has created employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities – recognising their capabilities and the value they bring to meaningful work:

‘We’ve been partnering with them since 2017. And through the work that we do with them, we have been able to create jobs for the beneficiaries that they are supporting,’ says Gabriel.
