Job Description:

A fast-growing, multi-site restaurant and hospitality group operating across key Mediterranean markets is seeking a commercially minded, operationally experienced Chief Financial Officer to join its senior leadership team. This is a confidential replacement for an incumbent leader.

The CFO will play a critical role in shaping the next phase of the company’s expansion — leading financial strategy, embedding robust control frameworks, and supporting commercial growth across 20+ restaurant locations in a high-performance, international environment.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead all aspects of financial strategy, reporting, and governance across a €30M–€50M operation
• Oversee and develop a finance team of 3–5 controllers spanning multiple locations
• Build and optimise financial systems and infrastructure for scalable growth
• Partner with commercial and operational teams to drive profitability and performance
• Support both franchised and corporate-owned sites with consistent financial oversight
• Operate with discretion and professionalism during a sensitive leadership transition
• Champion best practices in cost control, forecasting, and data-driven decision making

Ideal Candidate

• Proven finance leadership within restaurants, hospitality, or other complex operational sectors
• Deep experience with financial systems, cost structure design, and multi-site oversight
• Hands-on expertise with Oracle or similar ERP systems is essential
• Strong track record supporting growing businesses with €30M+ turnover
• Experience with franchise and international operating models is highly desirable
• Commercially savvy, detail-oriented, and highly discreet
• Comfortable relocating to or based in a Mediterranean location with regular on-site presence

Relocation
The position is based in a dynamic Mediterranean location with excellent infrastructure, connectivity, and quality of life. Support for relocation is available for the right candidate. The leadership team includes internationally experienced executives who have successfully transitioned into the business from other markets.
