PE-Backed B2B SaaS | PE-Backed | £5m ARR | 40% YoY Growth | Scaling to £20m ARR | US Expansion | Exit Journey
Finatal is partnering with a high-growth private equity-backed B2B SaaS business to appoint its next Chief Financial Officer.
The company provides a market-leading software platform to SMEs, has reached £5m ARR, and is growing at 40% year-on-year. With ambitious plans to expand into the US, scale to £20m ARR, and ultimately deliver a successful private equity exit, this is a rare opportunity to join the executive team at a pivotal stage of growth.
Working closely with the CEO, Board and investors, you will build a finance function capable of supporting rapid international expansion while driving commercial performance and long-term value creation.
The Role
As CFO, you will:
- Partner with the CEO to execute the company's growth strategy.
- Lead the finance function, owning all financial operations, reporting, FP&A and controls.
- Build scalable processes and systems to support the next phase of growth.
- Drive commercial decision-making through SaaS KPI reporting and financial insight.
- Support the company's expansion into the US market.
- Lead Board and investor reporting while working closely with the private equity sponsor.
- Prepare the business for a successful exit, ensuring best-in-class financial governance and readiness throughout the value creation plan.
