Central London (Hybrid) £80,000–£90,000 + Bonus + Benefits
I'm delighted to be partnering with an ambitious, fast-growing D2C challenger brand that's entering an exciting phase of growth. With a strong customer proposition, impressive commercial momentum and ambitious expansion plans, the business is looking to appoint a commercially minded Head of Finance to join its leadership team.
This is an outstanding opportunity for someone who enjoys operating in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment where finance plays a central role in driving strategic decisions and business performance.
The Opportunity
Reporting directly to the senior leadership team, you'll take ownership of the day-to-day finance function while acting as a trusted commercial partner across the wider business. This is a broad role that combines financial control, FP&A, commercial analysis and team leadership, giving you real influence over the future direction of the company.
Key Responsibilities
- Lead the day-to-day finance function, ensuring accurate and timely financial reporting
- Own the monthly management accounts, budgeting and forecasting processes
- Deliver meaningful KPI reporting, commercial insights and performance analysis
- Partner with senior stakeholders across the business to support strategic decision-making
- Lead the FP&A function, helping to shape future growth plans
- Monitor cash flow, profitability and working capital
- Drive continuous improvements across finance systems, reporting and internal controls
- Lead, mentor and develop the finance team
- Support business planning, investment decisions and commercial initiatives
