Job Details

My client, a highly successful and global Facilities Management business based in London, is looking to bring on an Interim Divisional Finance Director (looking after a business unit of c.£300m t/o) to support them for an initial 6 months.

The current FD has recently stepped out of the role on a short term basis due to a transformation programme within the wider Group that needs addressing. In the meantime, this role will see the chosen candidate running the day-to-days of finance, supporting the CFO across all aspects of Finance (including Tax, Treasury and FP&A) and leading a team of c.8-10 qualified finance professionals.

While sector is not of the utmost importance, we are looking for experienced FDs with extensive Divisional exposure (ideally within large global blue-chips). Naturally, this assignment will require an individual who is able to hit the ground running, has a proven track record of leading sizeable teams and working closely with the SLT to hit key deliverables.

Qualifications / Experience Required:

  • ACA / CIMA Qualified, with extensive PQE
  • Significant exposure to (ideally B2B) blue-chip organisations at the senior level
  • A proven track record of hitting the ground running, and running business units autonomously
  • Immediately available
  • Able to commute to London-based offices around 3-4 days per week (some flexibility)

Company

Communicate stands for excellence, entrepreneurialism and delivery. 

Our aim is simple: to source and place the best candidates within timeframes which surpass those of other recruitment businesses. With 32% of placements made this year being at FTSE 100 companies, we feel we are living up to our aspirations. 

Specialising in the placement of permanent and interim candidates for many of the world’s best companies, Communicate has earned an excellent reputation for providing fast and effective recruitment on a retained or contingent basis, without ever compromising quality. Indeed, despite the market average for finding new opportunities through word-of-mouth being just 18%*, this year, 67% of the placements made so far have been agency network, referred or headhunted candidates. 

In addition, we are thought leaders, regularly appearing in national, regional and trade publications. 

We are also market leaders. Our pioneering product – the Communicate Contingent Retainer – guarantees we fill vacancies within six weeks or refund all payments, in full, immediately. This means positions are filled with exceptional candidates at four times the speed of the industry standard and clients are not exposed to the 20% risk of paying for a service they do not receive, as is typical with most of our competitors’ retained assignments. 

*Survey data collected from conversations with our leading clients in 2012 on sourcing candidates.
