As we enter a new phase of growth, we’re looking for a dynamic Finance & Commercial Director to help shape our future.
This is a rare opportunity to join a purpose‑driven organisation with the agility of a commercial business and the values of the NHS.

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.
What You’ll Lead
- Long‑term financial strategy, planning and reporting
- Commercial strategy, contract performance and negotiations
- Business development and growth opportunities
- Governance, assurance and risk management
- Efficiency, transformation and value‑for‑money programmes

- A professional accountancy qualification (CIPFA, CIMA, ACCA, ICAEW)
- Senior financial leadership experience in a contract‑driven environment
- Strong commercial acumen and experience managing FM/estates contracts
- A collaborative, values‑driven approach aligned with public‑service ethos
- Experience working with public‑sector clients — ideally the NHS
Why join us?
You’ll help steer a growing organisation that plays a vital role in supporting safe, effective healthcare for women, children and families across Birmingham. You’ll influence strategy at Board level, work closely with NHS partners, and help shape a modern, sustainable, high‑performing subsidiary.
