About Robert Beattie
Head of Finance - Graivy Inc.
Most people think finance is about numbers. I think it’s about timing. Knowing when to push, when to pause, and how to build something that scales with intention. At Graivy, I’m here to ensure the bold things we’re building today make even more sense tomorrow.
Before joining Graivy, I spent nearly two decades helping businesses grow inside BMO Commercial Bank– one of the most structured institutions you can imagine. I led media finance, structured deals across industries, and worked alongside CEOs to turn balance sheets into strategy. From corporate finance to capital markets, from private equity to valuation. I learned how to build, fund, and protect businesses that don’t follow templates.
This team isn’t following a template. We’re creating something entirely new. The QSR space is evolving fast – from AI-driven kiosks to voice-powered drive-thrus – and that kind of velocity demands financial strategy that’s just as innovative. My job isn’t just to manage risk, it’s to help this company move with confidence, backed by rigor.
I’ve structured complex mergers, analyzed multi-billion-dollar portfolios, and built financial models that stood up to boardrooms and bankers. Now I’m using those same tools to help Graivy build something the industry hasn’t seen yet, and won’t forget once it does.
Outside of finance, I spend a lot of time on two wheels. Track days are my reset button – full speed, full focus. Turns out I’m not the only one at Graivy who finds clarity in the corners. Just a happy coincidence, but a good one.
