You'll be joining a supremely successful wholesale business, c.£26million t/o and growing looking to totally transform their finance function to meet with scale-up plans and development.

You'll come in as the No.2 in finance to a vastly accomplished CFO who has recently joined the business and wants you as their right hand. The transformation project is already underway, bringing all accounting, reporting and processes in-house from an external function.

The CFO is keen for you to bring new ideas and use all your phenomenal experience and success in previous businesses into this role - you will be a key contributor in curating the new, slick and high-functioning finance department.

You'll overhaul month-end, you'll create your own management accounts pack, you'll recruit more staff business grows, you'll implement your own KPIs, you'll totally oversee the day-to-day running of the finance function and the finance team…

Come into this role with your eyes wide open, your mind open to change, and the ambition and drive to set the standards in the finance function with the total and unwavering backing of the CFO - An exceptional leader.
