A highly respected professional services business is seeking an accomplished Finance Director to join its executive leadership team and play a pivotal role in shaping the future direction of the organisation.
This is a rare opportunity for a commercially minded finance leader to step into a strategic role that combines executive influence, business partnering, and operational leadership. Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer and sitting on the senior leadership team, the successful individual will lead the finance function while supporting the delivery of ambitious growth plans across the wider business.
The organisation has undergone significant transformation in recent years, investing heavily in finance systems, business partnering capabilities, and management information. As a result, finance has evolved into a highly valued commercial function. The next phase of the journey is focused on simplifying complex financial information, increasing commercial awareness across the business, embedding profitability-led decision making, and leveraging technology, automation, and AI to drive further efficiency and insight.
