This role will entail a refreshing range of projects and duties day-to-day in this newly created role. Working closely with senior leaders and the CEO will take precedence, but you will also be expected to play a visible role in the finance and operation teams. Developing a first-rate finance function, advising on business strategy and building exceptional relationships throughout the business are all part of the essential remit.

Summary of duties:

  • Managing the finance team
  • Working closely with operations to establish key drivers within the business
  • Developing and coaching existing staff members to improve current reporting
  • Improving working capital controls
  • Improving the effectiveness of costings

This exciting opportunity would suit a talented CFO with at least 8 years’ experience at a senior level.

You will need to be a hands-on leader, with a thorough understanding of the media sector. To be successful you will need to be an inspirational manager, a driven senior team player, and an expert on leading companies through growth from a financial and operational perspective.
