Facedrive Inc. (“Facedrive” or the “Company”) (TSXV:FD), (OTC:FDVRF), Facedrive Inc. (“Facedrive” or the “Company”), a Canadian “people-and-planet first” tech ecosystem, announces a change in its senior management team with Nastassia Law resigning as the Company’s Chief Financial Officer, effective March 4, 2022. Ms. Law will be assisting the Company in transitioning, over a three-week period, to Jason Xie, MBA, CPA, FCPA and AICPA, who will serve as Chief Financial Officer going forward. Currently the Company’s Vice President of Operations and Finance, Mr. Xie has become a primary figure in the Company’s financial reporting system since joining the Company in 2021, leading the establishment of key new internal financial, regulatory and accounting controls while providing critical operational oversight and data-backed analysis to senior management and the Board. The transition is part of a broader initiative by the Company to better integrate finance with operations with a view to aligning its financial management and reporting systems with evolving applications of conventional accounting standards relative to gig-economy based technology platforms, particularly in the delivery and logistics space.
Mr. Xie has over 15 years of accounting, controlling and financial management experience involving listed multinational enterprises dealing with regulators in the United States, Hong Kong and other regions. Prior to joining Facedrive, Mr. Xie served as Vice President of Miniso, North America, Senior Financial Analyst at University Health Network, Head of Finance at Reflex Winkelmann GmbH, and Partner in Management Consulting at a well-known CPA firm. Mr. Xie is skilled in financial reporting, budgeting, treasury, costing and managerial accounting, auditing, tax planning, M&A, project evaluation, financial modeling, pre-IPO business improvement, and strategy execution in a broad base of industries from the more traditional manufacturing, retail, logistics to new-age ones such as high tech, SaaS, and digital economy.
“We are pleased to have Jason Xie assume the role of Chief Financial Officer at Facedrive. Mr. Xie has already been an indispensable member of the team, demonstrating the skill and dedication we need for this position. We are confident that he will successfully lead our finance team. I look forward to working with him in his new role,” said Suman Pushparajah, CEO of Facedrive.
