CA’s 10-Year Career Break Leads to CFO Role at Udrive: Here is how I restarted my career

• Hi, I’m Jarna. Gaglaani. After a corporate break of over 10 years, I wanted to restart my career.
• In 2018 I took a chance by joining Udrive, a startup in the UAE, instead of a more established company.
• Starting as a Finance Controller in 2018, I rose to become CFO, learning invaluable skills in valuation, investor pitching, and more.
• Now, I’m the CFO of JYSK, a Scandinavian retail chain.

Back story 

“Oh, I am so sorry that you have three daughters. You must have so much burden.” We are three sisters, and people used to say that to our parents a lot.

The only thing that I wanted was to change this archaic perspective of those people, and pursuing a high-quality professional course was the only way.
