Job Description
Finance Director (Part-Time/Flexible)
Hybrid - London office and home-based
Anderson Quigley is an executive search, interim management and advisory firm working with organisations that contribute to society and social development. With a team of c.35 people in the UK and a subsidiary in the UAE, we are values-led and highly collaborative, with integrity, authenticity, inclusivity, accountability and supportiveness at our core.
We are seeking a Finance Director to lead our financial strategy and operations as we continue to grow. You will report to a Managing Partner, manage our Finance Manager and play a key role on the senior leadership team.
You will take overall responsibility for financial strategy, planning and analysis, leading the annual budgeting and forecasting cycle, developing insightful MI and providing clear, commercial advice to support strategic decisions. You will oversee day-to-day finance operations (including Xero, invoicing and credit control, cashflow, banking and investments, payroll, commissions/bonuses and contractor payroll), ensuring robust controls, policies and processes underpin everything we do.
You will lead on statutory and regulatory compliance for our UK and UAE entities, working with external advisers. You will ensure we meet all tax, VAT and reporting obligations, while actively managing financial risk and supporting wider improvements to systems, reporting and profitability.
We are looking for a qualified (or part-qualified) CIMA / ACCA / ACA finance professional with substantial experience leading or managing finance in an SME or similar environment. You will bring a strong track record in management accounts, cashflow forecasting and financial analysis, and be confident overseeing payroll and incentive schemes. Experience with Xero is essential; exposure to international entities and people-based, fee-earning environments (such as recruitment, executive search, consultancy or professional services) would be an advantage.
A credible, hands-on finance leader, you will combine excellent communication skills with strong analytical ability and commercial acumen. You will be comfortable operating autonomously in a fast-paced, owner-led business while building trusted, collaborative relationships across the firm. Above all, you will align with our mission and values and be energised by supporting organisations that benefit society.
