Head of Finance - Bond Moran Recruitment Ltd : Job Details

Head of Finance - Milton Keynes area - Salary £80,000 - £90,000p.a.

If you are seeking an alternative challenge within a high-growth business where you can make a tangible difference, then this could be the ideal opportunity for you.

This multi-site hospitality group are seeking a commercial finance professional who will thrive on partnering with their driven CFO in building a 'best-in-class' finance function.

They are a well-respected group, who have a highly experienced, credible and commercially astute senior leadership team and, having recently acquired four related businesses, they have a clear vision and a rapid growth and improvement plan.

With this strong foothold in their sector, this business is well positioned for the next chapter in their story.

As the new Head of Finance, you will be a key part of this.

The highly-engaging CFO is aiming to affect an extremely swift revamp of the Finance Department, bringing the outsourced functions in-house and you will be tasked with building a team to accomplish this. Initially, this will involve a thorough review, re-design and roll-out of robust processes, procedures and creating efficiencies with technology. This will subsequently enable the business to scale at an accelerated pace.

Given the current set-up, you will need a pragmatic approach to the day-to-day requirements and you will need a hands-on, can-do approach that you would expect within any start-up or turnaround scenario.

To be successful in this position, you must have a collaborative style and a desire that matches the CFO's vision of driving improvements and change swiftly and to tight deadlines.

Naturally, success in scenarios such as this, tend to combine previous experience with a can-do, driven mindset. You are likely to have a background of successful systems improvements and implementations in a multi-entity environment. Clearly in a role such as this, your ability to effectively communicate with both finance and non-finance stakeholders alike, will be key to your success.

This is NOT an easy or 'maintenance’ style role. Every day will be different and you will need to be able to prioritise and revel bringing structure to the newly created Finance Department.

If you are this commercially minded, qualified individual, with strong business partnering background, and you are comfortable dealing with the challenges faced within this environment, this could be a perfect match.
