McBride Sport is proud to be supporting a forward-thinking EFL professional football club at a pivotal stage in its evolution, as it looks to appoint a Finance Director / Head of Finance that will operate as the number one finance person in the organisation. This is not a traditional lead finance brief. It's a development opportunity for a high-potential finance leader ready to step into a broader, more influential role. Someone in the ascendancy of their career who wants to help build, shape, and scale an ambitious organisation operating at the heart of the sports industry. Working closely with the Chairman and Board, the successful candidate will act as a strategic partner and key architect of the club's future, translating ambition into sustainable performance across football operations, commercial growth, and wider business interests. This role offers a rare blend of responsibility and runway. You'll lead financial stewardship and governance, while also playing a hands-on role in shaping strategy, supporting football decision-making, and contributing to investment activity across a wider group structure. Key areas of focus will include: Partnering with senior leadership on strategic and operational decision-making Driving financial planning, performance, and commercial growth initiatives Experience of growth and working capital management with investor led / owner management businesses. Supporting football operations through robust modelling and budget management Leading and developing a small but high-performing finance and administrative team Ensuring compliance within a regulated sporting environment We're looking for a modern finance professional profile which will be commercially astute, people-focused, and strategically minded with the credibility to operate at Board level and the hunger to grow into a broader leadership mandate. The role will provide exposure not just to finance but to broader general management and is an opportunity is ideally suited to someone who brings senior finance experience (c.5+ years) but is still on a steep upward trajectory and has trained as a qualified accountant (ideally ACA in a top 20 firm). The role would suit someone who thrives in fast-paced, high-pressure, performance environment and is motivated by building something meaningful, rather than simply maintaining it. Experience within sport, entertainment, or similarly dynamic sectors is advantageous, but much more important is exposure to investor-led or owner-managed businesses. To be successful you will appreciate the dynamic and often unstructured working pattern that elite sport and in particular football presents coupled with the expectations of a highly successful investor group. This is a role for someone who sees football not just as a sport, but as a platform for innovation, growth and long-term value creation and would like to use the skills and expereicne gained in this role to build a long-term career in elite sport
