Autumnal Partners are working on a rare opportunity to find a finance director to lead the fund finance function of one of the UK's leading mid-market private equity firms.
About the Client
Our client is a highly regarded private equity investor with over £2bn of assets under management, investing in high-growth UK technology and tech-enabled businesses. With an outstanding track record and an institutional investor base, the firm has built a reputation for long-term value creation and collaborative investing.

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

For an ambitious fund finance leader looking to step beyond technical delivery into strategic leadership, this represents a genuine career-defining opportunity.
