The Gate brings people together from across the world to engage with theatre, performance, art and ideas. Founded in 1979 to stage ground-breaking international plays, the Gate has become a platform for radical artists, writers and directors from across the globe: known for its transformative ability to push the boundaries of what theatre is and could be. It is a place where creatives have been gathering to imagine storytelling differently, and where experimental thinking is front and centre. At a time when the world and our own nation grow increasingly insular, we believe it is important to foster communication and understanding across borders, across languages, across cultures. The Gate works with artists in the UK to tell stories from beyond our borders, celebrating the multiplicity of identity within our artists and our audiences through the power of theatre. As a home for new voices and new ideas, we also have a reputation as a training theatre. Gate shows enable artists to take risks and to develop and advance their own talent, and their own professional journey, by making high quality work that moves the artform and the sector forward. The monumental events of the pandemic have drastically changed the theatre landscape and ecology, with its effects being keenly felt through unpredictable audience behaviour, and rising costs. As the nation navigates the cost-of-living crisis, the arts continue to face devastating funding cuts and challenges, including the withdrawal of much local council arts provision and the increasing competition for resources across trusts and foundations At the Gate, we have used this moment of transition to interrogate both our founding mission and what the needs of the sector are today. The Gate is now operating as a theatre producer as opposed to a venue, and seeks collaborations and partnerships in a variety of places to continue championing international voices through theatre. The Executive Director is also the Chief Executive, with responsibility for the organisational and financial health of the Gate, securing funding for programme and working closely with the Artistic team to ensure the art is kept at the heart of our strategy. Please note the Gate will be exploring succession planning for artistic leadership in the coming months and the incoming Executive Director will be involved in this Artistic Director recruitment process.

SF Search Partners are working with a private equity backed SAAS and technology organisation to source a rounded and communicative Chief Financial Officer. The organisation in question is on a very strong growth trajectory and needs a CFO that on the one hand can make sure the finance team and associated infrastructure are fit for purpose, but also work with the CEO to set and drive the strategic direction of the business. The business has international revenue streams both across Europe and the US. As well as private equity funding, the business also has a slug of external debt - ideally you will not only have experience of managing PE stakeholders but also the providers of debt solutions, instilling confidence into the providers of these funding mechanisms. Outside of the debt and funding piece, you will stand shoulder to shoulder with the CEO of the organisation to shape and drive strategy such that the business and its underlying infrastructure grows in a consistent and controlled way. At the right time you will also lead an exit on behalf of the CEO and current PE backers - that said, the Founders of the business are looking for someone to stay with them after this transaction if relevant - i.e. if this goes to a secondary PE deal you will roll some equity and stay around. In addition to having been a No 1 or No 2 FD / CFO in a standalone PE backed technology business, we'd ideally like to speak to CFOs that have experience of leading exit transactions within standalone companies. Candidates with experience of SAAS and technology sectors (and associated recurring revenue streams) would be of particular interest. We also need candidates with experience of managing international revenue streams - some knowledge of US trading / taxes would be of particular interest. This role will be largely remote / home based and so we need PE savvy candidates that are can manage this approach happily either because they find this appealing or currently working remotely. The package will consist of a generous salary - there will also be an equity allocation which will equate to a mid six / seven figure outcome at the end of the first investment cycle.
