You’ll Bring:

  * Proven experience in a senior finance role (Finance Director, Head of Finance, or equivalent) within a growth-focused SME or professional services environment.

  * Full accounting qualification (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent).

  * Strong P&L ownership and cash flow management experience.

  * A track record of driving efficiency, process improvement, and systems change.

  * Excellent stakeholder management skills and the ability to partner across functions.

  * Broad operational leadership experience across finance, IT, compliance, and business support.

Desirable:

  * Experience within recruitment or professional services.

  * Knowledge of incentive design and commercial modelling.

  * Exposure to emerging technologies or tools that enhance financial performance.

What’s on Offer
