This online consumer services organisation is already a hugely successful concern (EBITDA £12m and cash positive) and they intend to develop on their UK success by developing their international markets. The strategic plan is to grow the EBITDA to £20m before considering their exit options.
Crucial to their ambitions being achieved is the appointment of a Finance Director to join the operational board and bring a level of experience, gravitas, and commercial awareness that the executive board will benefit from.
To be suitable, it is essential you have the following background and attributes:
- Experience of operating at board level of an owner-managed or PE backed concern, or with a highly autonomous subsidiary within a sector relevant business
- Several years experience within a technology led, B to C business including the on-line retail, financial services sector or TMT sectors
- A background is implementing financial controls and developing MIS in a maturing business in a high growth scenario and consequentially facilitating greater operational and financial efficiency.
- Experience of developing international channels in a marketing led business model
- Given its chosen sector a particularly requirement is experience of consumer cash receipts and the necessary controls in order to avoid fraud and other potential cash-loss
- Proven leadership skills
- Experience of at least one business exit where a substantial capital return was achieved for the stakeholders
In return there is a package to attract the best available candidate that will include an incentive that will vest on the successful exit of the business.
