The team you lead will be responsible for implementing controls and balancing long term contracts - you will represent the finance function at the executive level.

As Group CFO you will also be responsible for supporting the CEO in commercial matters and contract negotiations, liaising with the private equity backers, and managing divisional finance directors.
Experience as an autonomous CFO in a PE-backed business is strongly preferred, whether as number one in finance in a smaller businesses, or at a divisional level in an autonomous subsidiary or business unit. You must be willing to hold your own with and, if necessary, challenge the most senior members of the business, including at board level. If you feel you have the ability to keep pace with a changing environment and meet the above specification, we look forward to receiving your application.
