About Our Client

Our client is leading marine electrification through an aggregation of marine technology specialists. These established specialists develop fully electric solutions for both commercial and recreational markets, creating a comprehensive ecosystem to drive the transition to zero emission boating.

The group includes high performance electric vessels and system integration, high-output electric marine propulsion systems and the world's first production electric watercraft & snowmobiles, all supported by the first global marine fast charging network.

Job Description

The Group CFO will play a critical role in shaping and executing the financial strategy to support this accelerated growth, integration activity, and long-term value creation.

Key Responsibilities

• Develop and maintain strong banking and financial institution relationships, securing funding and finding solutions to enable sales such as international retail financing, fleet financing or dealer floorplan financing. Implement financing instruments to effectively manage working capital in high‑growth supply chains.
• Full ownership of all financial planning and reporting, budgeting, and forecasting processes across all affiliated entities.
• Evaluate new business opportunities, partnerships, and growth initiatives with a data‑driven, strategic approach.
• Act as a key strategic partner to the CEO and leadership team, supporting public and private fundraising efforts and providing actionable financial insight to drive company growth strategy.
• Support the development and execution of a robust investor relations strategy.
• Oversee daily treasury processes, cash management, and liquidity forecasting, providing timely insights to optimise working capital and cash flows.
• Oversee cash‑flow modelling for long‑term planning and support financial decision‑making across departments.

Qualifications and Experience

It is crucial that you are able to travel for this role as there will be some time spent between sites in Canada, UK intuitively, and Italy.

We are looking for candidates who have experienced a start‑up rojo/scale‑up business and have led investor relations with a proven track record in fundraising, banking relationships, and financial structuring – whether from investment banking, corporate development, or senior finance roles. Ideally you will have had capital markets/venture capital or investment banking exposure that has then led onto a hands‑on role in an entrepreneurial setting. You will be comfortable operating in a lean, growth‑stage environment. You will have excellent communication and relationship‑building skills with executives, investors, and financial partners. Understanding of the financial operations of manufacturing, hardware, or capital‑intensive industries would be highly advantageous.
