Patrick Sullivan

I worked with Goke at S&P Global Platts based in NY while Goke was managing our International finance team in London. Upon my joining the team, Goke proved to be a wealth of knowledge on how Platts operated and the challenges we faced, considering he had been in his role for less than twenty months. The company was growing rapidly, and the finance team was underperforming. From our first phone call together, Goke demonstrated his professionalism and willingness to work together. He quickly became my confidant and helped me navigate my new role and identify changes that needed to be made in terms of both process and personnel. As a leader, Goke took ownership of his team as well as numerous projects, acquisitions and corporate initiatives such as the reorganization of the Sales team, corporate transfer pricing project and the roll-out of a new ERP planning system. Goke was well respected across the organization having established himself as a business partner with key US and UK based executives in our editorial and sales teams. Goke’s energy industry experience and knowledge of Platts editorial and sales processes was unique and invaluable. Goke’s people skills, coupled with his willingness to partner with our senior business leaders to solve issues, made him a most sought after resource and valued member of the finance team. I would welcome the opportunity to work with Goke again.

Goke is a top finance leader, and while we worked together in Platts we benefited greatly from his unique ability to synthesize a deep personal experience in energy markets with expertise in the balance sheets and income profiles of financial services and IP-driven organizations like a Price Reporting Agency. The two worlds are necessarily interrelated, but correlations are subtle and finding the vital statistics is science and art. As my finance business partner, Goke taught me a great deal about tracking and improving financial performance, and at the same time was tireless in his own pursuit of knowing ever more about the business itself.
