Leading retail crime intelligence software company, Auror, has taken out the Finance Team of the Year Award at the inaugural CFO Techstack Awards 2026.
The awards celebrated ANZ finance teams that demonstrate exceptional strategic vision, collaboration, and continuous tech-stack innovation.
Auror’s finance team was recognised for their ability to maintain superior governance across four global regions while remaining agile enough to support one of New Zealand's fastest-growing businesses.
Auror Chief Finance Officer Annemaree Shaw said “we’re proud to see the team’s efforts highlighted with this award. We’ve been able to adapt well across all our geos as we grow thanks to the team’s adaptability and focus on continuous improvement”.
“The work we do everyday contributes to Auror’s growth and sustainability, so we can continue supporting our retail partners to keep their people and stores safe, which is a key driver for us and why we do what we do,” she said.
The judges highlighted how Auror leverages its advanced Xero and Mayday tech stack to build a highly scalable, future-ready finance function.
