Parkside Office Professional
Interim Finance Director / CFO
Role suited to a hands-on FD / CFO who can add instant value across all aspects of operational finance with this scaling tech organisation
We are currently partnering with this rapidly scaling "Tech" organisation that is now in a maturity phase following an incredible growth journey over the past 4/5 years. The business is now at a point where a sophisticated Finance leader is required to "get their hands" across the financial and operational requirements the business now faces.
This role will suit a hands-on, pragmatic and execution-focused finance leader who has successfully navigated businesses through periods of change, capital pressure, scale-up or turnaround environments. This role requires a confident, senior finance leader who can bring stability, structure and technical depth from day one. While we don't underplay the technical requirements of the role, the essence of this appointment is to find someone who can add immediate value across all aspects of financial control / management issues a maturing SME would face.
Key responsibilities include:
- Full ownership of group financial control, reporting and compliance
- Stabilise and strengthen the finance function during a period of transition
- Strengthening month-end, year-end and consolidation processes
- Providing technical accounting expertise and resolving complex issues
- Leading, mentoring and developing the existing team
- Improving controls, systems and financial governance
- Supporting the CEO with strategic insights and operational clarity
- Ensure the finance function runs smoothly and independently
You are an ACA qualified professional with genuine depth in financial control, someone who has been through the weeds and are comfortable operating in an environment which is still evolving.
Whilst initially a 6 month contract, a permanent FD/CFO will need to be appointed and this contract will give you optimum exposure to the CEO.
