Group Finance Manager | PE-Backed Professional Services | London-based, hybrid

Our client is a PE-backed professional services group operating across multiple international markets. They're on a defined journey to significantly scale enterprise value, building a single finance and commercial engine, and are looking for an ambitious finance professional to help bolster the team.

This is a strong opportunity for someone who wants real exposure to the acquisition side of a PE-backed platform, and a front-row seat as the business builds towards an eventual exit.

The role

• Own month-end and the group's consolidated books; journals, reconciliations, intercompany, the board pack
• Own group forecasting, variance analysis, headcount, client revenue and project profitability reporting
• Lead the roll-out and ongoing ownership of group-wide payroll, AP, chart of accounts and credit control
• Support new business onboarding as the group acquires; data, systems, reporting calendar
• Own the business-facing side of audit and support statutory reporting

About you

• ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified, with solid post-qualified industry experience
• You've built something; a process, system or reporting pack (not just operated one)
• Comfortable hands-on in a multi-entity, multi-currency environment
• Strong Excel, keen to replace manual process with tooling
• A clear, confident communicator who can hold business units to account without relying on hierarchy
