Job description

Fractional CFO Opportunity | Professional Sport | South West England

I'm looking to speak with experienced CFOs / FDs about a confidential fractional opportunity with an established professional sports organisation in the South West.

The requirement is for someone who combines senior-level commercial finance experience with hands-on finance transformation, particularly improving financial systems, reporting, processes and controls.

This isn't a purely advisory assignment. We're looking for someone who can work alongside an existing finance team, get involved operationally and help deliver meaningful improvements.

Approximately 2-3 days per week, with regular on-site presence required, particularly initially.

Experience within professional sport would be advantageous but isn't essential. We're equally interested in individuals from commercially complex, investor-backed businesses.
