Job description

Location: Recruiting across the BN and RH postcodes.

Salary: A GBP 810 per day

What's the opportunity?

If you're a top quality Chief Financial Officer / Finance Director who is frustrated and fed up with the confines of a normal corporate life and you're looking for something different, or you're an independent CFO who've already made the break from corporate life, or a working or returning CFO parent who wants more work flexibility and work life balance, then read on, this might be for you.

You will be responsible for providing CFO services to ambitious A GBP 2:50M private businesses, supporting business owners to climb their Everest.

They're not interested in people who just want a job. You’ll help their clients reach those summits, you'll be a self-starter with ambition, energy, and a can-do attitude, who has a passion to help their clients, typically business owners, entrepreneurs, CEOs or MDs.

You’ll thrive on the challenge and autonomy of growing your own portfolio of clients, supported by an incredible network of CFOs based across world. They have big dreams, and they expect you to have the same.

What do you need to have?

You need to be qualified from one of the UK’s major chartered accounting institutes and have been a real-life CFO/FD once, twice or several times over, with strong experience and understanding of commercial finance, business strategy, and a track record of success, although your special sauce is your natural ability to build genuine long-lasting relationships with their clients. Part CFO, part advisor, part strategist, part friend. Your clients will say this person and the business are in it with me for the long-term, and I know they really care.

Working closely with your Regional Director and team of CFO/FDs in a highly collegiate environment. They pride themselves on being a great place to work, with family at their core, as is often found in their own clients operations.

How does it work?

The role is self-employed, whilst operating within a defined model, combining the benefits of being part of a team and supported by a well-established organisation, but with a level of autonomy and freedom in how you deliver outcomes for clients.

Rather than feeding you fish, they teach you how to catch them and how to build a portfolio career that can be a game changer for clients and yourself. You'll love the challenge, variety and interest of working for multiple clients and appreciate the flexibility this way of working provides. A great listener, and even better at asking great questions, at first you'll wake up every day and think how do I build my portfolio today and then as your portfolio builds think how do I add value and do something special for my clients today?

They’re the UK and Global Market leading provider of part-time Finance Directors and Chief Finance Officers services to mid-sized businesses. As they say, for those businesses that don't want, don't need and probably can't afford a full-time CFO/FD, yet who want access to that skillset on an affordable part-time basis.

Who are they?

They're 700+ people, in 5 continents, operating across multiple regions in the UK and Ireland. They started the business to change the game for mid-tier businesses.

You’ll join a collective team of former CEOs, Executives, CFOs, FDs, and successful business owners who count themselves at top of the game, and who have experienced success in their former lives. They're the Avengers team of the financial strategy world, bringing together thousands of years of collective experience to supercharge their clients businesses.

I started here 4 years ago and I'm loving the lifestyle, loving the challenge, and loving the difference I can make to the clients I am working with, and the ethos of what this place is all about. I even get to go to my kids football games now : CFO

They're a movement of people that left corporate seeking a freedom-based
