Our client is a highly successful and dynamic hybrid organisation, fusing business operation and charitable work. It is both a for profit and a not for profit enterprise which is steeped in history and social responsibility. We have been retained to recruit the business an Interim transformational CFO on a 12 months FTC starting in December. This role is a pivotal, strategic position that will shape the future of the finance structure as well as the legal entities around which the organisation is separated. The successful candidate will demonstrate 8 plus years in CFO positions within a growing, commercially focused business and be able to demonstrate oversight of Finance, Legal, Audit and Compliance as well as act as company secretary to the board of Trustees. You will be a qualified accountant and know what good looks like but at the same time be a philanthropic and outgoing leader who does not fit the stereotypical mold of a traditional CFO. Better put, you will be career hungry and chasing a CEO role in the future, looking at finance from a strategic point of view and relying on a 20 strong team to produce the numbers on time and accurately on a monthly and quarterly basis. You will be a transformation expert, seeing change as something that is needed at all times to constantly improve how things are done. As such, your day one challenges will be the outsourcing of the businesses legal affairs as well as implementation of a new finance system whilst overhauling procurement and the digitalisation of reporting and the use of ai to enable better budget and forecasting. This is not a position for the faint hearted, but is also an exciting challenge for someone who perhaps feels that they are not making a difference in their current organisation. Every member of the board are inspirational in their role and accomplished players in the commercial sector before joining this hybrid organisation where charity meets business, and so much social enterprise is delivered in the wider community. So why join this business? You will be joining a team of like-minded philanthropists who can genuinely make a difference whilst running a profitable enterprise which delivers on its strategic plan year after year and supports hundreds of community ventures and projects that would not prosper without its existence. The successful applicant must be ego free and want to work in a high performing and diverse environment where gender and background are ignored in favour of energy, excellence and growth. This role is offered on a fully remote basis but with a requirement for the successful CFO to travel nationally approx 1 week per month in total but largely during a working day and not overnight. It can offer a 4 day working week but stresses the need to deliver a 5 day a week delivery and will pay as if it was 5. It can offer a 12 months FTC with holiday, pension and benefits and a unique opportunity to initiate change in a challenging and dynamic environment. Competition for the opportunity will be fierce, we are seeking an accomplished finance leader and not someone to grow into this role, but at the same time this person will be mid-career and be ambitious to develop into a broader CFO remit where more and more of the CEO's role is delivered by this individual. Compensation for this position will be discussed with the applicants but will be around £130k annum plus benefits (for the right applicant the salary can be paid for a 4 day week). For a confidential chat about your cv and your suitability for the role, please apply.

Our client is a highly successful and dynamic hybrid organisation, fusing business operation and charitable work. It is both a for-profit and a not-for-profit enterprise which is steeped in history and social responsibility. We have been retained to recruit the business an Interim transformational CFO on a 12 months FTC starting in December. This role is a pivotal, strategic position that will shape the future of the finance structure as well as the legal entities around which the organisation is separated. The successful candidate will demonstrate 8 plus years in CFO positions within a growing, commercially focused business and be able to demonstrate oversight of Finance, Legal, Audit and Compliance as well as act as company secretary to the board of Trustees. You will be a qualified accountant and know what good looks like but at the same time be a philanthropic and outgoing leader who does not fit the stereotypical mold. You will be able to look at finance from a strategic point of view, whilst being able to rely on a 20 strong team to produce the numbers on time and accurately on a monthly and quarterly basis. Essential to this role will be experience in Finance within a charitable organisation (SORP/FRS102), in addition to for-profit businesses potentially in the retail space, for example. You will be a transformation expert, seeing change as something that is needed at all times to constantly improve how things are done. As such, your day one challenges will be the outsourcing of the businesses legal affairs as well as implementation of a new finance system whilst overhauling procurement and the digitalisation of reporting and the use of ai to enable better budget and forecasting. This is not a position for the faint hearted, but is also an exciting challenge for someone who perhaps feels that they are not making a difference in their current organisation. Every member of the board are inspirational in their role and accomplished players in the commercial sector before joining this hybrid organisation where charity meets business, and so much social enterprise is delivered in the wider community. So why join this business? You will be joining a team of like-minded philanthropists who can genuinely make a difference whilst running a profitable enterprise which delivers on its strategic plan year after year and supports hundreds of community ventures and projects that would not prosper without its existence. The successful applicant must be ego free and want to work in a high performing and diverse environment where gender and background are ignored in favour of energy, excellence and growth. This role is offered on a fully remote basis but with a requirement for the successful CFO to travel nationally approx 1 week per month in total but largely during a working day and not overnight. It can offer a 4 day working week but stresses the need to deliver a 5 day a week delivery and will pay as if it was 5. It can offer a 12 months FTC with holiday, pension and benefits and a unique opportunity to initiate change in a challenging and dynamic environment. Competition for the opportunity will be fierce, we are seeking an accomplished finance leader and not someone to grow into this role, but at the same time this person will be mid-career and be ambitious to develop into a broader CFO remit where more and more of the CEO's role is delivered by this individual. Compensation for this position will be discussed with the applicants but will be around £130k annum plus benefits (for the right applicant the salary can be paid for a 4 day week). For a confidential chat about your cv and your suitability for the role, please apply.
