If you see yourself as an up and coming Finance Director, then this role is potentially for you. We are working with a highly profitable, growing business that have aggressively expanded through strategic acquisitions and organic growth over the past 18 months. Already, they have a combined turnover of over £10 million, with imminent acquisitions expected to double that number shortly - and many more planned over the next 18 months. However, this is no ordinary fast-growing SME. In fact they are backed by a much bigger and ambitious corporation, who have designs on providing a serious UK challenge to an extremely successful and expansive industry market.
All of this leads to an extremely exciting opportunity for a Qualified Finance Leader. The Group are looking to appoint a brand new FD to lead the Division through the next pivotal stage of growth. This will be a varied role, combining the hands on accounting needed in a SME, with the more corporate reporting required when working for a PLC Group. This makes the role not only stand out in the short and medium term, but also would be a fantastic CV builder for an aspirational CFO / Group FD.
There is a small team to manage, and you must be happy to produce and review the numbers - but then also work at a senior commercial level. In time you will grow and mould your team in your own design, but you must maintain the courage to lead from the front, all the while helping to navigate the strategic direction of the business along with the Group FD and MD.
Whilst the role is officially based in Loughborough, there is only a need for 1/2 days a week in the office, which massively opens up the geographical location of the candidate. Ultimately, for any candidate faced with a commute for 20-40% of the week, this would be a sacrifice worth taking for what it is a phenomenal opportunity.
I am looking for a Qualified Accountant, with the client open on background. Ideally you will have experience in Group Reporting - but have worked hands on with a Division or a SME. Your ability to handle budgeting, cash flow and forecasting must be superb, and any experience in M & A will be welcomed. You will get mentored and guided from those above, but get the autonomy expected in a Finance Director role.
If you would like to hear more about this opportunity, please get in touch asap.
