Nottingham, United Kingdom Distinct Recruitment Full time

Are you ready to play a pivotal role in reshaping financial strategies?

Great opportunity to join a very successful private equity-backed software group focusing on financial strategies, net working capital, cash modelling, debt management, and more.

Offering between £70,000 to £85,000 + Bonus + Equity Options + Very Flexible Hybrid Working (mostly remote, 1 day in the office)

About the Role:

This is a newly created role (reporting into the Commercial FD and a dotted line to CFO/Wider C-Suite) to gain a deeper understanding of cash flow and net working capital (NWC). Historically, they’ve focused on EBITDA, but now they’re expanding the team to ensure they have a comprehensive grasp of their wider financial health.

It’s worth highlighting that this isn’t a P&L focused business partnering role, we’re looking for someone with a fairly niche skillset (details below).

They’ve already got a decent-sized technical accounting team adept at handling numbers and cash flow, treasure etc. However, what's missing is unravelling the 'why' behind these figures.

Your Responsibilities:

  • Be responsible for the delivery of monthly net working capital and cash flow analysis
  • Co-ordinate finance resource (to delivery required detailed analysis) to enable the delivery of this insight
  • Be responsible for financial modelling in relation to cash flow generation, debt serviceability and leverage
  • Work with the Treasury function to support operational cash flow insight
  • Work on financing related activity, including new financing options, incremental facility raises, hedging strategy and strategic reviews of our debt structure
  • Craft compelling narratives for the board and lenders, highlighting key insights. Picture digging into why trade debtors are rising and determining the necessary course of action.
  • Collaborate closely with sponsors, the board, and investors, providing high-level exposure.
  • Work with the wider board on financing strategies and opportunities.

Key requirement:

  • ACA/ACCA/CIMA Qualified with proven experience in financial modelling, with a focus on cash flow, net working capital, hedging, FX and or debt management.

Why Join them:

  • Clear progression opportunities including FP&A, Commercial Finance, and Investor Relations… all up for grabs.
  • Work alongside a talented team in an environment that fosters innovation and growth.
  • Some fantastic benefits on offer, Bonus, Equity Options, Enhanced holiday & maternity/paternity packages and a very flexible working environment (1 -2 days in the office)
