Hull Yorkshire HU PD United Kingdom MS3 Full time

Job Title: Finance Director

Salary: £110,000 – £120,000 + performance bonus

Location: HU13 9PD (Hull, East Yorkshire) – Minimum 3 days per week in-person required

Join MS3 Networks at this pivotal point of our journey, moving from a successful capital intensive build phase to strategic commercialisation.

MS3 Networks, backed by Asterion Industrial Partners, has completed the deployment of its fibre network across Hull, East Yorkshire, and Northern Lincolnshire. We are now entering a new era - moving from a capital-intensive build phase to strategic commercialisation.

This is your opportunity to inject fresh perspective and momentum into a business poised for significant growth.

What Makes This Role Different?

This is not a traditional finance role - it demands critical thinking, adaptability, and hands-on leadership to partner with the CEO and Board, navigate complexity, drive profitability, and create long-term value for Private Equity investors while actively supporting and developing the finance team.

Key Focus Areas:

  • Commercialisation Driver: Transition the business focus from Capex optimisation to maximising profitability and minimising Opex while driving revenue growth.
  • PE Investor Relationship: Act as the key financial point of contact, expertly managing reporting needs and expectations of our institutional Private Equity investors and Board.
  • Financial Governance: Establish and enforce robust financial policies, risk management frameworks, continuous forecasting (Capex/Opex), and reliable financial modelling to support sound decision-making.
  • Team & Systems: Provide guidance and management for the finance team, ensuring compliance with all financial, regulatory, and legal legislation.
  • Leadership: Be an exceptional leader who empowers the finance team to thrive and develop.

What We're Looking For

  • Critical Thinker: Able to challenge assumptions and make data-driven decision.
  • Private Equity Expertise: Strong track record in PE-backed businesses.
  • Growth Phase Leadership: Experience scaling businesses during commercialisation.
  • Qualification: Fully qualified Chartered Accountant (CIMA, ACCA, ACA).
  • M&A Experience: Desirable but not essential.
  • A background in Telecommunications or similar utilities is preferred but not essential. However, experience in a PE-backed, capital-intensive sector is required.

What You'll Get

  • Salary: £110,000 - £120,000 + performance bonus
  • Sector-leading benefits: Enhanced family leave, health insurance, critical illness cover, BUPA health checks, Denplan, life assurance, EV leasing, tech scheme, discounted gym membership, and more
