Job description

Ref: 40892

My exclusive client is a modern disruptor to the financial services industry, with ethical values supporting one of the fastest-growing demographics in the UK and internationally.

A true scale-up business that supports its customers directly and through a thoroughly vetted broker network. The business has doubled its activities in each of the last three years, with no sign of slowing down. It attracts extensive interest from both customers and investors seeking secure, ethical returns on their strategic investments.

Due to this growth, a fantastic opportunity has arisen for a driven, collaborative finance professional with proven impact and experience in a regulated business to join the senior team.

Reporting to the MD, CEO, and Board, you will have the foundation to execute the finance role comfortably, with the commerciality, credibility, and strategic insight to develop into the CFO within 12-24 months.

The successful candidate will be:

• A qualified finance professional
• Operating at, or ready for, your first FD role
• Comfortable with both the detailed compliance work and strategic risk assessment
• Experience within a regulated financial services business, ideally in lending
• Experience in a scale-up scenario, nationally and internationally, would be highly regarded

If you seek the excitement and potential rewards of a start-up, combined with the profile of a business with an established brand, customer base, investor network, and growth plan where you can truly explore your potential and be rewarded, apply now for a confidential discussion.

Bruin recognises the positive value of diversity and promotes equality and fairness. We welcome applications from all qualified persons—regardless of gender, age, sexual orientation, nationality, religion, or belief. We particularly encourage women, disabled individuals, and Black, Asian, and minority ethnic candidates, as these groups are underrepresented in the financial services industry. We value a diverse workforce, and all appointments are made on merit, with ability to perform the job as the primary criterion.
