This is where finance meets real leadership.

We’re partnering with a high-performing, globally scaling business backed by strong private ownership. With serious momentum behind them, they’re looking for a commercially sharp CFO / FD to lead the charge on strategic finance, growth, and performance across international markets.

There’s a world-class team in place. Big ambitions. And a board that wants a finance leader, not just a safe pair of hands.

The Opportunity

You’ll sit at the heart of the business - reporting to the CEO and leading a 70+ strong global finance team across FP&A, reporting, commercial, systems and ops.

This isn’t a tidy-the-numbers role. It’s about shaping strategy, scaling internationally, and being a voice of clarity in the boardroom.

Think performance, insight, planning, and execution - across a truly global remit.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Leading the global finance function (FP&A, control, commercial, systems, reporting)
• Acting as a key strategic partner to the board and international leadership team
• Owning planning cycles, growth strategies, and long-range financial modelling
• Preparing the business for future equity events (exit/M&A readiness)
• Partnering with investors to track performance and unlock value
• Driving insight-led decision making across pricing, market expansion and product strategy
• Building a high-performing, commercially minded team with clear succession and development
• Lead and managing a large and high performing team
• Act as a true business leader! Championing culture, diversity and collaboration
• Deal with key external stakeholders, including banks, auditors and customers

We’d Love To See

• Board-level finance leadership in international, high-growth environments
• Proven track record scaling businesses at pace (ideally through exit or major funding events)
• PE/Investor-facing experience with strong communication and gravitas
• Have experience of group leadership.
• A track record of being an autonomous CFO for a growing business.
• Sector experience will be checked and reviewed.
• A blend of commercial instinct and financial control
• Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) with excellent academic track record
• SAP and global systems familiarity a bonus
