Head Finance
Dartmouth Partners are seeking a commercially strong Head Finance to lead the core finance function within a fast-paced, private equity-backed, global digital client undergoing significant transformation. This will report directly into the Group CFO and play a key role in the value creation plan, overseeing a large finance team, including M&A initiatives, FP&A and Business Partnering, including Board and C-suite interaction.
This role will take full ownership of FP&A, Business Partnering, oversight of Financial Reporting, Control, Tax, and Finance Operations, while acting as a key business partner to the executive team, board, and investors. Reporting to the CFO/CEO and Chief of Staff, the successful candidate will have the opportunity to broaden their remit over time, with clear progression to a Finance Director role as the business moves towards a PE exit. This will suit a Head of Finance, or Head of FP&A/Commercial Finance Business Partner/Senior Finance Manager who wants to broaden their remit from purely commercial finance or FP&A.
