The Company A fast-growing, PE-backed e-commerce group is looking for a hands-on finance professional to take ownership of day-to-day finance operations and help build out financial control as the business scales. Backed by an international private equity investor, the group operates remotely with its registered office in London.

You'll take full ownership of transactional finance while also acting as the senior finance presence supporting the leadership team and incoming fractional CFO.
