Director of Finance
We're looking for a Director of Finance to be the most senior finance hire at Mercury13, the group building a portfolio of professional women's football clubs across Europe. You'll own financial planning and analysis across a multi-currency, multi-country group that's still early in its journey. Reporting to the group CEO, you'll build the reporting foundations at each club, then use them to run financial planning that leadership and our investors can trust. This is a builder's role, not a caretaker's.
We'd love to hear from you if:
- You have significant experience in finance, and in senior leadership roles
- You have deep expertise in FP&A, financial modeling, reporting, and accounting standards
- You've built financial structure in complex, high-growth, multi-entity and multi-currency businesses, creating the systems where none existed
- You hold a finance or accounting degree or equivalent experience, ideally with a professional qualification (CPA, ACA, ACCA or similar)
- You've owned investor reporting and managed investor relationships, ideally in a PE-backed or institutionally-funded business
- You're hands-on and happiest solving problems yourself rather than overseeing others
- You're obsessed with efficiency and love finding better, more automated ways to work
- You take full ownership and build trust quickly with people across different countries
