Bright Obeng is the Founder and Host of De CFO Podcast, Belgium’s leading platform for CFO’s and finance leaders, broadcast weekly on Trends Z. His edge comes from a rare mix of worlds. 15 years inside finance, 5 years recruiting CFO’s and finance leaders, and 6 years building De CFO Podcast into a national reference point. Few people understand the CFO role from the inside, the talent market, and the public stage. Bright does. He began his career at Deloitte, before moving into a hybrid role that combined sales and finance, forcing him to think beyond spreadsheets and into real commercial decision-making. He later joined Rockwool, where he built hands-on experience across investment control, supply chain and operations, and business controlling — learning how strategy actually plays out on the ground. Today, De CFO Podcast is the heartbeat of a broader ecosystem that includes Live Sessions, the Female CFO Summit, CFO Master Mind, and the CFO Gala. Together, they create a trusted space where CFO’s step back, sharpen their thinking, and shape the future of their role. Bright is also a sought-after keynote speaker on finance leadership and resilience, grounded in a personal journey that started far from boardrooms — and shaped a relentless ambition to build something that lasts.
