About the Company
A fast-growing, PE-backed IT services group operating across Northern and Central Europe, generating around £20m in net revenue. Built through acquisition, with a lean central team overseeing finance and IT. There's an ambitious five-year plan to get to a significantly larger revenue base, at a strong margin, through continued M&A.
About the Role
Group CFO, reporting into the CEO and the Board. This is a genuine build mandate at the centre of an active buy-and-build strategy not a "shape what's already there" role.
What You'll Actually Be Doing
- Standing up group finance from scratch, multi-currency, multi-entity consolidation from day one
- Owning lender relationships and covenants across existing debt facilities, plus cash and working capital group-wide
- Leading post-acquisition integration, completion accounts, earn-outs, the lot
- Running the M&A engine end-to-end: diligence, deal execution, integration, and doing it again
- Building one consistent reporting framework across operating units and standardising how revenue, margin and performance actually get measured
- Managing incentive plans, board and investor reporting, and starting to shape the business for a future exit
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
The Person
- You've built or scaled a finance function inside a PE-backed, acquisitive services or technology business before and this isn't your first buy-and-build.
- You're genuinely comfortable being one of very few central functions in a lean group structure, rather than sitting on top of a big finance team.
- You're a hands-on operator first, the early months are execution, not slide decks.
- And you're entrepreneurial and personable enough to be credible in the same room as founders, management teams and investors, often in the same week.
