The ideal candidate would have experience partnering with a PE firm and this role would give you wide exposure to board and working in a high growth environment.
Managing a finance team, the successful candidate will have full responsibility for, amongst other things, the integrity and timely completion of group reporting and financial planning, guiding the business through the annual budgeting and forecasting process, the production of board reports and presentations, providing an insightful business-partnering service to budget holders across the business and the provision of meaningful commercial analysis aimed at continually improving profitability.
