Our retained client is a highly profitable owner managed SME which has built a strong reputation within the service sector industry across the UK. With a history of consistent and impressive achievement over a number of years, our client takes pride in providing high-end, quality experiences and services to its customers.

The business has a desirable foundation upon which to build and enhance its success to date. This will be achieved through a targeted buy-and-build model to further complement the group and extensive ongoing investment into refurbishment and new service offerings to ensure an advantage over its competition.

A critical part in the execution of this next phase is to ensure that the right management and infrastructure is in place. It is, therefore, an opportune time to appoint a Finance Director, who can embed themselves as a trusted partner to the owners, contributing fresh ideas in terms of profitability, future acquisitions (M&A) and maximising sales. You will also take responsibility for IT and HR as well as management of the finance function (15 heads).

The appointed candidate will have a proven track record of driving profitable growth within a privately owned, ideally complex, multi sited, SME. He or she must demonstrate a 'hands on' approach required in an SME and be confident communicating and presenting to a broad range of internal and external stakeholders.
