PE Backed Chief Financial Officer
An exciting secondary buyout opportunity requires, for our client, a CFO to lead the sale to a growth focused Private Equity firm. A CFO who can manage the post-acquisition integrations will be key, along with driving the business through the sale and aggressive international growth trajectory, leading to a potential exit within 3-5 years.
You will have CFO experience in professionalising a rapidly growing business and a proven track record partnering with executive management to ensure financial processes and controls are driven in line with company-wide goals. Although not specifically required, it is preferred you will be able to assist in the due diligence and preparation for the acquisition process immediately.
As the ideal CFO, you must be prepared to be hands on with a variety of responsibilities ranging from integrating financial processes and controls to leading the finance function and liaising with board members on long term strategic goals. Commercial skills are key within this buy and build business plan, as well as the ability to communicate and lead all functions of the business through it's aggressive growth plan.
Unfortunately, due to a high volume of applicants, we are only able to consider qualified accountants (ACA, ACCA, CIMA), and while CFO experience of working in a highly leveraged environment is not essential, it is preferable. If suitable, you will be contacted after applying for more details of this role.
