London, Greater London, United Kingdom Marks Sattin Executive Search Full time

Marks Sattin Executive Search is a leading provider of executive search services, working with dynamic and ambitious businesses. We are currently partnering with a PE-backed tech-enabled company poised for significant growth.

The company is seeking an experienced and strategic CFO to work closely with the CEO and senior leadership team, contributing at the board level to steer the business through its next phase of expansion and position it for a successful exit.

The ideal candidate will have a proven track record within a business in the Tech enabled or SaaS sectors, and be able to work with the executive team, the board, and the PE firm to drive the strategic direction of the business, identifying growth opportunities.

The CFO will be responsible for leading the finance function, with a particular focus on driving operational efficiency and improving financial performance. This includes enhancing margins by streamlining operations, optimising cost structures, and identifying opportunities for improved profitability across the business. Additionally, the CFO will play a vital role in providing detailed performance analysis to support strategic decision-making.

Beyond the financial and operational oversight, the CFO will be instrumental in driving the commercial strategy of the business. This involves identifying new revenue streams, expanding into new markets, and strengthening the business's market position. Furthermore, the CFO will be responsible for nurturing strong relationships with the PE firm, ensuring alignment with long-term growth objectives, and continuously improving financial processes and systems to support the business's evolving needs.

We are looking for a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, ACMA), preferably chartered, with experience of bringing a finance function in house. However, this is not essential. The ideal candidate will be able to provide detailed performance analysis to support strategic decision-making, and have a proven track record within a business in the Tech enabled or SaaS sectors.

Salary: £120,000 - £150,000 per annum
