Head of Finance | B Corp Challenger Snacks Brand
London (hybrid, 3 days)
£80,000 - £90,000 + 20% bonus + long-term incentive potential
Become the first senior finance hire at a profitable, founder-led snacks brand that has doubled in 2 years - and own the numbers through its next stage of growth.
I'm partnering with one of the most exciting challenger brands in UK snacking to recruit their newly-created Head of Finance. Founder-led, B Corp certified, profitable, and revenue has doubled in 2 years.
They make high protein products made from British ingredients - working only with suppliers that adhere to high-welfare, regenerative standards. Health and sustainability are the 2 of the biggest tailwinds in food and they’re an innovative category leader that ticks both boxes.
Finance has been run by a highly-experienced fractional FD who isn’t stepping away entirely, so you inherit real foundations and have support and a handover - but a clear pathway to becoming a fully fledged FD yourself.
What you'd get out of the role
- Exposure to founders and a say in the decision making
- Pathway to Finance Director (and beyond)
- Broad role with a commercial remit (genuine business partnering)
- To shape the finance function of one of the UK's fastest growing snacks brands
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 do
- Own the P&L of a business that makes what it sells - Manufacturing is in-house. You'll own COGS, margin and the operational drivers behind them, getting closer to how the product actually makes money than most Head of Finance seats allow. This is emphatically not a solely back-office role.
- Cash, control and reporting - You'll run working capital through a fast-growth phase and build the reporting the founders and their advisory board rely on to steer.
- Commercial and investor-facing work - Pricing, retail growth decisions and supporting the founders on cap table and investor matters and future fundraising as the business scales.
- Financial Reporting – own financial reporting processes for the business
You'd be the first full-time senior finance hire, so the function grows underneath you. And your role will grow as the business scales.

What you'll need
- Fully qualified accountant
- Finance experience in a fast-growing product business - food and drink is ideal, but wider FMCG or consumer could work
- Comfort with cost accounting and cash management in a manufacturing or stock-holding environment
- Strong financial modelling skills, comfortable building from scratch (3 statement models)
