SoundCloud has hired its first ever Chief Financial Officer, namely Holly Lim, who joins from Google. Well, it’s probably about time someone started guiding the company’s financial strategy and helping to establish a long-term view on maintaining SoundCloud’s financial health and capitalising on new opportunities for growth.

Says CEO Alexander Ljung: “SoundCloud exists in a world where the competitive context is complex – with the addition of Holly to the executive team, she will guide our financial strategy and help us establish a long-term view around how we maintain SoundCloud’s financial health and capitalise on new opportunities for growth”. Oh, perfect.

“Holly has a distinguished track record in financial and business leadership, and brings not only a deep understanding of the dynamics at work in companies with high growth potential, but also a sense of what is needed to scale globally”, he adds.

Lim says: “I’m excited to work with the entire executive team at SoundCloud as a strategic business partner and lead the company’s finance strategy. This new role presents an opportunity to not only help a burgeoning company grow – but develop the company vision and strategy with an entrepreneurial executive team”.

She will officially start doing all that on 6 Sep.
