Interim Group Financial Controller

PE-Backed Data Centre Platform

6-9 Month Interim Assignment

Location: Europe (Preference for Milan, Geneva, Oslo or other European locations)

CR1149

The Opportunity

Finatal is partnering with a fast-growing, PE-backed digital infrastructure platform on a confidential search for an Interim Group Financial Controller.

The business operates within the data centre sector and is undergoing a significant phase of expansion across Europe. Backed by a leading private equity sponsor, the company currently generates c.€250m revenue with EBITDA margins of approximately 40% and is executing an ambitious growth strategy through organic expansion, greenfield developments and acquisitions.

Following a recent carve-out and finance transformation, the business requires an experienced interim leader to bring structure, control and scalability to the finance function while supporting the search for a permanent appointment.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
