to £110,000 plus 30% bonus | Car | investment potential
Hybrid – West Yorkshire

Chief Financial Officer sitting at desk working

I’m looking for a highly commercial, ambitious, proactive, Chief Financial Officer to add value to this growing, acquisitive, profitable, manufacturing group of companies. Current turnover is >£35m.

Naturally, you will be responsible for budgeting, forecasting, and reporting across the group. You will also provide inspiring leadership to the internal finance team.

Additionally, as a key member of the leadership team, you will act as a business partner across all areas of the organisation. This will include driving improvements and efficiencies and challenging existing practices and ideas.

You’ll need to show how you have added value in your career by improving margins, creating pricing strategies and using data to inform commercial decisions.

In this CFO role you will have the opportunity to lead on future acquisitions and integrations. You will need excellent commercial acumen and the ability to influence at the most senior level inside and outside the business. I’m looking for someone who will appropriately challenge the leadership and management teams to drive growth and continuous improvement.

This is a multi-site, multi-entity, group with complex legal structures. You should have experience in a similar environment, with expertise in consolidation, tax, and compliance.

You must be a qualified accountant with experience in manufacturing and a demonstrable track record of driving growth and improvement. Previous cross-functional involvement, with Sales, operations, production etc, is required.

You’ll need to show strong strategic and commercial skills and the ability to influence senior colleagues while communicating complex financial issues to all staff and stakeholders. This is a Private Equity backed business so a high level of analysis and reporting is required.

You must be located in the North of England/Midlands (M6/M1/M62 corridor) with access to the company’s West Yorkshire head office. This is a hybrid working role, with an expectation that you will be in the office, or one of the sites, at least three days per week.

This presents a great opportunity to further your career – and potentially invest – in a growing business. This is a permanent position with a preferred start date in February 2025.

To apply, complete the short form below. I look forward to hearing from you.
